Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:23 - The next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the audience room with the high-ranking military officers and the prominent men of the city. At the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:26 - But I have nothing definite to write to His Majesty about him. Therefore I have brought him before all of you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that as a result of this investigation I may have something to write.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:5 - They have known me for a long time and can testify, if they are willing, that I conformed to the strictest sect of our religion, living as a Pharisee.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:16 - As we passed to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we were hardly able to make the lifeboat secure,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:21 - After they had gone a long time without food, Paul stood up before them and said: “Men, you should have taken my advice not to sail from Crete; then you would have spared yourselves this damage and loss.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:27 - On the fourteenth night we were still being driven across the Adriatic[fn] Sea, when about midnight the sailors sensed they were approaching land.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:32 - So the soldiers cut the ropes that held the lifeboat and let it drift away.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:4 - When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, “This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.”

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:21 - They replied, “We have not received any letters from Judea concerning you, and none of our people who have come from there has reported or said anything bad about you.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:22 - But we want to hear what your views are, for we know that people everywhere are talking against this sect.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:12 - that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:27 - In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:15 - They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.)
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:20 - an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:23 - You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:1 - What advantage, then, is there in being a Jew, or what value is there in circumcision?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:24 - and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:25 - God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[fn] through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:26 - he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:30 - since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:31 - Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:11 - And he received circumcision as a sign, a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but have not been circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:12 - And he is then also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised but who also follow in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:19 - Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah's womb was also dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:2 - through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we[fn] boast in the hope of the glory of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:9 - Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:12 - Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:14 - Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who is a pattern of the one to come.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:17 - For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:19 - For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:4 - We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:5 - For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:6 - For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with,[fn] that we should no longer be slaves to sin—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:7 - because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:17 - But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:18 - You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:19 - I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:20 - When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:22 - But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[fn] Christ Jesus our Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:8 - But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in me every kind of coveting. For apart from the law, sin was dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:9 - Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:11 - For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:13 - Did that which is good, then, become death to me? By no means! Nevertheless, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it used what is good to bring about my death, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:23 - but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:2 - because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[fn] free from the law of sin and death.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:3 - For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[fn] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[fn] And so he condemned sin in the flesh,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:5 - Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:6 - The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:7 - The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:19 - For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:21 - that[fn] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:29 - For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:35 - Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:39 - neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:1 - I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:8 - In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:23 - What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory—

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:8 - But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[fn] that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim:
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:18 - But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:8 - as it is written: “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear, to this very day.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:17 - If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:24 - After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:3 - For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:6 - We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your[fn] faith;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:14 - Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:19 - Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:4 - For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:5 - May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:13 - May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:14 - I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with knowledge and competent to instruct one another.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:30 - I urge you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:33 - The God of peace be with you all. Amen.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:1 - I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon[fn][fn] of the church in Cenchreae.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:4 - They risked their lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:5 - Greet also the church that meets at their house. Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:18 - For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:20 - The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:23 - Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings. Erastus, who is the city's director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:21 - For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:8 - None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:11 - To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless.

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 6:14 - By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:4 - So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:2 - Even though I may not be an apostle to others, surely I am to you! For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:7 - Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink the milk?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:12 - If others have this right of support from you, shouldn't we have it all the more? But we did not use this right. On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:1 - For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:14 - Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:16 - Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:10 - It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own[fn] head, because of the angels.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:12 - For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:22 - Don't you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God by humiliating those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? Certainly not in this matter!
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:9 - So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:11 - If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and the speaker is a foreigner to me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:12 - So it is with you. Since you are eager for gifts of the Spirit, try to excel in those that build up the church.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:25 - as the secrets of their hearts are laid bare. So they will fall down and worship God, exclaiming, “God is really among you!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:56 - The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:1 - Now about the collection for the Lord's people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do.

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:15 - You know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the Lord's people. I urge you, brothers and sisters,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:19 - The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla[fn] greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:4 - who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:6 - If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:7 - And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:8 - We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters,[fn] about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:12 - Now this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in our relations with you, with integrity[fn] and godly sincerity. We have done so, relying not on worldly wisdom but on God's grace.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:24 - Not that we lord it over your faith, but we work with you for your joy, because it is by faith you stand firm.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:14 - But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ's triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of him everywhere.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:9 - If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:10 - For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:14 - But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:2 - Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone's conscience in the sight of God.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:4 - The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:6 - For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”[fn] made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:7 - But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:13 - It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.”[fn] Since we have that same spirit of[fn] faith, we also believe and therefore speak,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:17 - For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:4 - For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:18 - All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:19 - that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:7 - in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:1 - And now, brothers and sisters, we want you to know about the grace that God has given the Macedonian churches.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:2 - In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:4 - they urgently pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to the Lord's people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:8 - I am not commanding you, but I want to test the sincerity of your love by comparing it with the earnestness of others.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:24 - Therefore show these men the proof of your love and the reason for our pride in you, so that the churches can see it.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:1 - There is no need for me to write to you about this service to the Lord's people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:10 - Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:12 - This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:13 - Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:1 - By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you when away!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:4 - The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:5 - We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:8 - So even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than tearing you down, I will not be ashamed of it.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:15 - Neither do we go beyond our limits by boasting of work done by others. Our hope is that, as your faith continues to grow, our sphere of activity among you will greatly expand,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:3 - But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:10 - As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, nobody in the regions of Achaia will stop this boasting of mine.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:17 - In this self-confident boasting I am not talking as the Lord would, but as a fool.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:30 - If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:19 - Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:8 - For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:11 - Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:2 - and all the brothers and sisters[fn] with me, To the churches in Galatia:
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:15 - But when God, who set me apart from my mother's womb and called me by his grace, was pleased
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:21 - Then I went to Syria and Cilicia.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:22 - I was personally unknown to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:7 - On the contrary, they recognized that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the uncircumcised,[fn] just as Peter had been to the circumcised.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:8 - For God, who was at work in Peter as an apostle to the circumcised, was also at work in me as an apostle to the Gentiles.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:13 - Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:14 - He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:25 - Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:26 - So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:2 - The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:13 - As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:22 - For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:23 - His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:27 - For it is written: “Be glad, barren woman, you who never bore a child; shout for joy and cry aloud, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:30 - But what does Scripture say? “Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman's son.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:31 - Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:4 - You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:13 - You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh[fn]; rather, serve one another humbly in love.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:17 - For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever[fn] you want.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:19 - The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:8 - Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:10 - Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:6 - to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:7 - In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:10 - to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:13 - And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:14 - who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:17 - I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[fn] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:18 - I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:19 - and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:2 - in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:3 - All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh[fn] and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:7 - in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:11 - Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)—
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:12 - remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:2 - Surely you have heard about the administration of God's grace that was given to me for you,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:6 - This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:7 - I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God's grace given me through the working of his power.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:10 - His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:12 - In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:16 - I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:17 - so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:19 - and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:1 - As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:3 - Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:4 - There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:7 - But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:9 - (What does “he ascended” mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions[fn]?
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:13 - until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:14 - Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:16 - From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:18 - They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:22 - You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:24 - and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:29 - Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:6 - Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:23 - For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:3 - “so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:5 - Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:10 - Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:12 - For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:14 - Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:15 - and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:16 - In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:5 - because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:7 - It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God's grace with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:19 - for I know that through your prayers and God's provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ what has happened to me will turn out for my deliverance.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:25 - Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:26 - so that through my being with you again your boasting in Christ Jesus will abound on account of me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:13 - for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:17 - But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:25 - But I think it is necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, co-worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger, whom you sent to take care of my needs.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:30 - because he almost died for the work of Christ. He risked his life to make up for the help you yourselves could not give me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:8 - What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:10 - I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:14 - I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:21 - who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:9 - Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:22 - All God's people here send you greetings, especially those who belong to Caesar's household.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:5 - the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:11 - being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:13 - For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:16 - For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:18 - And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:20 - and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:22 - But now he has reconciled you by Christ's physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation—
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:23 - if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:27 - To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:2 - My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:3 - in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:5 - For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:8 - See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces[fn] of this world rather than on Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:9 - For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:11 - In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh[fn] was put off when you were circumcised by[fn] Christ,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:12 - having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:13 - When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you[fn] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:18 - Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:23 - Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:2 - Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:5 - Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:6 - Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:14 - And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:24 - since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 1:3 - We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 1:10 - and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:2 - We sent Timothy, who is our brother and co-worker in God's service in spreading the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:7 - Therefore, brothers and sisters, in all our distress and persecution we were encouraged about you because of your faith.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:10 - Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you again and supply what is lacking in your faith.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:3 - It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality;
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:9 - Now about your love for one another we do not need to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:23 - May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:4 - Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:5 - All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:9 - They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:11 - With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:1 - Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters,
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:3 - Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness[fn] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:7 - For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:8 - And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:10 - and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:14 - Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them, in order that they may feel ashamed.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:16 - Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:1 - Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:5 - The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:11 - that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:14 - The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 2:15 - But women[fn] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:9 - They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:15 - if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:16 - Beyond all question, the mystery from which true godliness springs is great: He appeared in the flesh, was vindicated by the Spirit,[fn] was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:1 - The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:6 - If you point these things out to the brothers and sisters,[fn] you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:8 - For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:12 - Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:2 - Those who have believing masters should not show them disrespect just because they are fellow believers. Instead, they should serve them even better because their masters are dear to them as fellow believers and are devoted to the welfare[fn] of their slaves. These are the things you are to teach and insist on.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:5 - and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:10 - For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:12 - Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:14 - to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:19 - In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:20 - Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care. Turn away from godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:1 - Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, in keeping with the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:5 - I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:6 - For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:10 - but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:10 - Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:15 - Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:26 - and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:15 - and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:3 - For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:4 - They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:6 - For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:8 - Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:1 - Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ to further the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness—
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:10 - For there are many rebellious people, full of meaningless talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision group.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:13 - while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:6 - I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:14 - But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do would not seem forced but would be voluntary.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:3 - The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:8 - But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 2:10 - In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:1 - Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:6 - But Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:7 - So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:13 - But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:14 - We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:15 - As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:2 - For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because they did not share the faith of those who obeyed.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:4 - For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:7 - God again set a certain day, calling it “Today.” This he did when a long time later he spoke through David, as in the passage already quoted: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:11 - Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:14 - Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven,[fn] Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:16 - Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 5:7 - During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 5:12 - In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:1 - Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death,[fn] and of faith in God,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:4 - It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:10 - God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:11 - We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, so that what you hope for may be fully realized.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:15 - And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:17 - Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:18 - God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:19 - We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:1 - This Melchizedek was king of Salem and priest of God Most High. He met Abraham returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:5 - Now the law requires the descendants of Levi who become priests to collect a tenth from the people—that is, from their fellow Israelites—even though they also are descended from Abraham.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:11 - If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood—and indeed the law given to the people established that priesthood—why was there still need for another priest to come, one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the order of Aaron?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:12 - For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed also.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:28 - For the law appoints as high priests men in all their weakness; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:1 - Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:2 - and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by a mere human being.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:9 - It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they did not remain faithful to my covenant, and I turned away from them,

declares the Lord.

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:4 - which had the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron's staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:8 - The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still functioning.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:11 - But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that are now already here,[fn] he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made with human hands, that is to say, is not a part of this creation.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:13 - The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:15 - For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:20 - He said, “This is the blood of the covenant, which God has commanded you to keep.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:21 - In the same way, he sprinkled with the blood both the tabernacle and everything used in its ceremonies.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:26 - Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But he has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:10 - And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:20 - by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:23 - Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:26 - If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:29 - How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:5 - By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.”[fn] For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:7 - By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:9 - By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:12 - And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:13 - All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:21 - By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:22 - By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his bones.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:38 - the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:39 - These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:2 - fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:5 - And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says, “My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:9 - Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live!
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:10 - They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:15 - See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:2 - Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:7 - Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:11 - The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:12 - And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:13 - Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:16 - And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:20 - Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:22 - Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:24 - Greet all your leaders and all the Lord's people. Those from Italy send you their greetings.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:3 - because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:12 - Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:14 - but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:23 - Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:25 - But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:1 - My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:5 - Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:15 - Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:6 - The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one's life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:11 - Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:13 - Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:14 - But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:14 - Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:5 - You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:7 - Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:10 - Brothers and sisters, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:14 - Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:15 - And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:17 - Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:19 - My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:7 - These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:9 - for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:10 - Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace that was to come to you, searched intently and with the greatest care,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:13 - Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:17 - Since you call on a Father who judges each person's work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:18 - For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:22 - Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:11 - Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:16 - Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God's slaves.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:1 - Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:4 - Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:15 - But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:4 - They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild living, and they heap abuse on you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:13 - But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:14 - If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 5:1 - To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ's sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed:
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 5:4 - And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:3 - His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:4 - Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:16 - For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:17 - He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:2 - Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:7 - and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:19 - They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:21 - It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:22 - Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,”[fn] and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 3:2 - I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 3:4 - They will say, “Where is this ‘coming' he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 3:9 - The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 3:12 - as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.[fn] That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.
Unchecked Copy Box1Jo 1:1 - That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.
Unchecked Copy Box1Jo 2:16 - For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.
Unchecked Copy Box1Jo 2:21 - I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Jo 3:19 - This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence:
