Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through perseverance and the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.
tcent@Romans:15:15 @ But I have written very boldly to you on some points, so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God,
tcent@Romans:16:5 @ greet also the church that meets in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert of Asia for Christ.
tcent@Romans:16:25 @ Now to him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret for long ages
tcent@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I thank my God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,
tcent@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
tcent@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
tcent@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
tcent@1Corinthians:2:3 @ I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling,
tcent@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth.
tcent@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.
tcent@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
tcent@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was any man called when he was already circumcised? He is not to become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? He is not to be circumcised.
tcent@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Each one should remain in the state in which he was called.
tcent@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For he who was called in the Lord as a slave is the Lord's freedman; likewise he who was free when called is Christ's slave.
tcent@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Brethren, let each one remain with God in that condition in which he was called.
tcent@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or is he speaking altogether for our sake? Yes, for our sake it was written, because the plowman ought to plow in hope, and the thresher to thresh in hope of sharing the crops.
tcent@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.
tcent@1Corinthians:10:5 @ Nevertheless, with most of them God was not pleased; for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
tcent@1Corinthians:11:9 @ neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
tcent@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman was made from man, so also man is born of woman. And all things are from God.
tcent@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread,
tcent@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
tcent@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
tcent@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of themyet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.
tcent@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.
tcent@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man was from the earth, of dust; the second man is from heaven.
tcent@1Corinthians:15:48 @ As was the man of dust, so are those who are of the dust; and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven.
tcent@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.
tcent@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have supplied what was lacking on your part.
tcent@2Corinthians:1:15 @ Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double benefit.
tcent@2Corinthians:1:17 @ When I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or do I make my plans in a fleshly manner so that in the same breath I say, »Yes, Yes« and »No, No«?
tcent@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was preached among you by usby me and Silvanus and Timothywas not Yes and No, but in him it has always been Yes.
tcent@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God as my witness that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.
tcent@2Corinthians:2:6 @ Sufficient for such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the majority,
tcent@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and when a door was opened for me in the Lord,
tcent@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, fading though it was,
tcent@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if what was fading away came with glory, much more is the glory of that which lasts.
tcent@2Corinthians:3:13 @ We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of the radiance that was fading away.
tcent@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, yet our inner nature is being renewed day by day.
tcent@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.
tcent@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
tcent@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.
tcent@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.
tcent@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have boasted to him about you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.
tcent@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that through his poverty you might become rich.
tcent@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and needed something, I was not a burden to anyone, for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied what I needed. I have kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and will continue to do so.
tcent@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the open sea.
tcent@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped his hands.
tcent@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not knowGod knows.
tcent@2Corinthians:12:4 @ was caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible things, which a man is not permitted to tell.
tcent@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And to keep me from being too elated because of the abundance of revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to harass me, to keep me from being too elated.
tcent@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have been a fool! You forced me to it, for I ought to have been commended by you. For I was not in the least inferior to these super-apostles, even though I am nothing.
tcent@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God for you.
tcent@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.
tcent@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
tcent@Galatians:1:14 @ and I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.
tcent@Galatians:1:15 @ But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother's womb and called me through his grace, was pleased
tcent@Galatians:1:22 @ I was still unknown by sight to the churches of Judea which were in Christ;
tcent@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up because of a revelation; and I set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I did this privately to those who were of reputation, for fear that I was running or had run my race in vain.
tcent@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me, was not compelled to be circumcised, though he was a Greek.
tcent@Galatians:2:4 @ But it was because of the false brethren secretly brought in, who had slipped in to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, in order to bring us into bondage.
tcent@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.
tcent@Galatians:2:10 @ All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.
tcent@Galatians:2:13 @ The rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.
tcent@Galatians:3:1 @ You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?
tcent@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you suffer so many things in vainif it really was in vain?
tcent@Galatians:3:6 @ Even so Abraham »believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.«
tcent@Galatians:3:19 @ Why the Law then? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the seed would come to whom the promise had been made.
tcent@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has bound everyone under sin, so that that what was promised by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
tcent@Galatians:3:24 @ So the law was our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
tcent@Galatians:4:13 @ you know it was because of an illness in the flesh that I preached the gospel to you at first;
tcent@Galatians:4:14 @ and though my fleshly condition was a trial to you, you did not despise or scorn me, but you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus himself.
tcent@Galatians:4:23 @ But the son by the slave was born according to the flesh, and the son by the free woman through the promise.
tcent@Galatians:4:29 @ But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.
tcent@Galatians:5:1 @ It was for freedom that Christ has set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
tcent@Ephesians:3:2 @ assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you,
tcent@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
tcent@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace which was given me by the working of his power.
tcent@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
tcent@Ephesians:3:11 @ This was according to the eternal purpose which he carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord,
tcent@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.
tcent@Ephesians:5:26 @ that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
tcent@Philippians:2:5 @ Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,
tcent@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though he was in the form of God, did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,
tcent@Philippians:2:26 @ for he was longing for you all and was distressed because you had heard that he was ill.
tcent@Philippians:2:27 @ Indeed he was ill, near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
tcent@Philippians:2:30 @ because he almost died for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete what was deficient in your service to me.
tcent@Philippians:3:7 @ But whatever was gain to me, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ.
tcent@Philippians:4:14 @ Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles.
tcent@Colossians:1:19 @ For all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell in him
tcent@Colossians:1:25 @ Of this church I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,
tcent@Colossians:2:14 @ having canceled the certificate of debt, which stood against us with its decrees. He took what was hostile away from us, nailing it to the cross.
tcent@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain;
tcent@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes to be glorified in his saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all who have believedbecause our testimony to you was believed.
tcent@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?
tcent@1Timothy:1:13 @ Even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor, I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief;
tcent@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord was overflowing for me, with the faith and love that are found in Christ Jesus.
tcent@1Timothy:2:7 @ For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying) as a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
tcent@1Timothy:2:13 @ For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
tcent@1Timothy:2:14 @ And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.
tcent@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you through prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands on you.
tcent@1Timothy:5:10 @ and she must be well known for her good deeds, as one who has brought up children, shown hospitality, washed the feet of the saints, relieved those in distress, and devoted herself to doing good in every way.
tcent@2Timothy:1:9 @ who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and the grace which was granted us in Christ Jesus from all eternity,
tcent@2Timothy:1:11 @ For this gospel I was appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher.
tcent@2Timothy:1:16 @ May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains;
tcent@2Timothy:1:17 @ but when he was in Rome, he eagerly searched for me and found me
tcent@2Timothy:3:9 @ But they will not get very far, for their folly will be plain to all, as was that of those two men.
tcent@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was rescued from the lion's mouth.
tcent@Titus:1:5 @ For this reason I left you in Crete, that you might straighten out what was left unfinished, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,
tcent@Titus:3:5 @ he saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but because of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit,
tcent@Philemon:1:11 @ Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is useful both to you and to me.
tcent@Philemon:1:15 @ Perhaps this is the reason he was separated from you for a while, that you might have him back for ever,
tcent@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the message spoken by angels was valid, and every transgression and disobedience received a just punishment,
tcent@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was confirmed to us by those who heard him,
tcent@Hebrews:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
tcent@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting that he, for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.
tcent@Hebrews:3:2 @ He was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house.
tcent@Hebrews:3:5 @ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,
tcent@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
tcent@Hebrews:4:2 @ For we also have had the good news preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.
tcent@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no one takes the honor upon himself, but he is called by God, just as Aaron was.
tcent@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not exalt himself to become a high priest, but it was he who said to him,
tcent@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his godly fear.
tcent@Hebrews:5:8 @ Although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered;
tcent@Hebrews:7:4 @ See how great he was! Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the spoils.
tcent@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him.
tcent@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if perfection could have been through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the people received the Law), what further need was there for another priest to arise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not one designated according to the order of Aaron?
tcent@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.
tcent@Hebrews:7:20 @ And it was not without an oath.
tcent@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens.
tcent@Hebrews:8:5 @ They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tabernacle, he was instructed by God, saying, »See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.«
tcent@Hebrews:9:2 @ For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the sacred bread; this is called the holy place.
tcent@Hebrews:9:3 @ Behind the second curtain was a tabernacle called the Holy of Holies,
tcent@Hebrews:9:8 @ The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the holy place had not yet been disclosed as long as the outer tabernacle was still standing.
tcent@Hebrews:9:10 @ since they relate only to food and drink and various washings regulations for the flesh imposed until the time of reformation.
tcent@Hebrews:9:18 @ This is why even the first covenant was not ratified without blood.
tcent@Hebrews:9:23 @ It was necessary, then, for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
tcent@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor was it that he should offer himself again and again, as the high priest enters the holy place year by year with blood not his own.
tcent@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
tcent@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much severer punishment do you think a man will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as an unclean thing the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
tcent@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.
tcent@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the world was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.
tcent@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his gifts. And through faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.
tcent@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had taken him. For before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.
tcent@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place which he was to receive as an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going.
tcent@Hebrews:11:10 @ for he was looking forward to the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
tcent@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, because she considered him faithful who had promised.
tcent@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was ready to offer up his only son,
tcent@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, »Through Isaac shall your descendants be called.«
tcent@Hebrews:11:19 @ He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead; from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.
tcent@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped as he leaned on the top of his staff.
tcent@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, when he was at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites, and gave orders concerning his bones.
tcent@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king's edict.
tcent@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
tcent@Hebrews:11:26 @ He considered abuse suffered for the Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking ahead to his reward.
tcent@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, whose weakness was turned to strength, who became mighty in war, and put foreign armies to flight.
tcent@Hebrews:11:38 @ of whom the world was not worthy wandering in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground.
tcent@Hebrews:11:39 @ And all these, though well attested by their faith, did not receive what was promised,
tcent@Hebrews:12:2 @ fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
tcent@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
tcent@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure the order that was given, »If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.«
tcent@Hebrews:12:21 @ The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, »I am trembling with fear.«
tcent@James:1:24 @ for he looks at himself and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like.
tcent@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
tcent@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was working with his works, and faith was completed by works,
tcent@James:2:23 @ and the scripture was fulfilled which says, »Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness«, and he was called the friend of God.
tcent@James:2:25 @ In the same way was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works, when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?
tcent@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.

tcent@1Peter:1:20 @ He was destined before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.
tcent@1Peter:1:25 @ And this is the word which was preached to you.
tcent@1Peter:2:23 @ when he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he uttered no threats, but he trusted himself to him who judges justly.
tcent@1Peter:4:6 @ For this reason the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though they are judged in the flesh as men, they might live in the spirit according to the will of God.
tcent@2Peter:1:9 @ For whoever lacks these things is blind and shortsighted, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.
tcent@2Peter:1:21 @ for no prophecy was ever made by the act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.
tcent@2Peter:2:7 @ and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
tcent@2Peter:2:16 @ but he was rebuked for his own transgression by a donkeya beast without speechwho spoke with a man's voice and restrained the prophet's madness.
