Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:32 - I want you to be free from the concerns of this life. An unmarried man can spend his time doing the Lord's work and thinking how to please him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:1 - I don't want you to forget, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] about our ancestors in the wilderness long ago. All of them were guided by a cloud that moved ahead of them, and all of them walked through the sea on dry ground.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:13 - The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:20 - No, not at all. I am saying that these sacrifices are offered to demons, not to God. And I don't want you to participate with demons.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:27 - If someone who isn't a believer asks you home for dinner, accept the invitation if you want to. Eat whatever is offered to you without raising questions of conscience.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:2 - I am so glad that you always keep me in your thoughts, and that you are following the teachings I passed on to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:3 - But there is one thing I want you to know: The head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:14 - Isn't it obvious that it's disgraceful for a man to have long hair?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:22 - What? Don't you have your own homes for eating and drinking? Or do you really want to disgrace God's church and shame the poor? What am I supposed to say? Do you want me to praise you? Well, I certainly will not praise you for this!
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:1 - Now, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] regarding your question about the special abilities the Spirit gives us. I don't want you to misunderstand this.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:5 - I wish you could all speak in tongues, but even more I wish you could all prophesy. For prophecy is greater than speaking in tongues, unless someone interprets what you are saying so that the whole church will be strengthened.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:6 - Dear brothers and sisters,[fn] if I should come to you speaking in an unknown language,[fn] how would that help you? But if I bring you a revelation or some special knowledge or prophecy or teaching, that will be helpful.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:36 - Or do you think God's word originated with you Corinthians? Are you the only ones to whom it was given?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:5 - I am coming to visit you after I have been to Macedonia,[fn] for I am planning to travel through Macedonia.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:6 - Perhaps I will stay awhile with you, possibly all winter, and then you can send me on my way to my next destination.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:7 - This time I don't want to make just a short visit and then go right on. I want to come and stay awhile, if the Lord will let me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:10 - When Timothy comes, don't intimidate him. He is doing the Lord's work, just as I am.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:12 - Now about our brother Apollos—I urged him to visit you with the other believers, but he was not willing to go right now. He will see you later when he has the opportunity.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:15 - You know that Stephanas and his household were the first of the harvest of believers in Greece,[fn] and they are spending their lives in service to God's people. I urge you, dear brothers and sisters,[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:19 - The churches here in the province of Asia[fn] send greetings in the Lord, as do Aquila and Priscilla[fn] and all the others who gather in their home for church meetings.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:20 - All the brothers and sisters here send greetings to you. Greet each other with Christian love.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:8 - We think you ought to know, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] about the trouble we went through in the province of Asia. We were crushed and overwhelmed beyond our ability to endure, and we thought we would never live through it.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:12 - We can say with confidence and a clear conscience that we have lived with a God-given holiness[fn] and sincerity in all our dealings. We have depended on God's grace, not on our own human wisdom. That is how we have conducted ourselves before the world, and especially toward you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:15 - Since I was so sure of your understanding and trust, I wanted to give you a double blessing by visiting you twice—
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:16 - first on my way to Macedonia and again when I returned from Macedonia.[fn] Then you could send me on my way to Judea.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:18 - As surely as God is faithful, our word to you does not waver between “Yes” and “No.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:1 - So I decided that I would not bring you grief with another painful visit.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:2 - For if I cause you grief, who will make me glad? Certainly not someone I have grieved.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:3 - That is why I wrote to you as I did, so that when I do come, I won't be grieved by the very ones who ought to give me the greatest joy. Surely you all know that my joy comes from your being joyful.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:4 - I wrote that letter in great anguish, with a troubled heart and many tears. I didn't want to grieve you, but I wanted to let you know how much love I have for you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:5 - I am not overstating it when I say that the man who caused all the trouble hurt all of you more than he hurt me.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:7 - Now, however, it is time to forgive and comfort him. Otherwise he may be overcome by discouragement.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:8 - So I urge you now to reaffirm your love for him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:10 - When you forgive this man, I forgive him, too. And when I forgive whatever needs to be forgiven, I do so with Christ's authority for your benefit,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:1 - Are we beginning to praise ourselves again? Are we like others, who need to bring you letters of recommendation, or who ask you to write such letters on their behalf? Surely not!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:15 - All of this is for your benefit. And as God's grace reaches more and more people, there will be great thanksgiving, and God will receive more and more glory.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:1 - As God's partners,[fn] we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God's kindness and then ignore it.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:11 - Oh, dear Corinthian friends! We have spoken honestly with you, and our hearts are open to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:17 - Therefore, come out from among unbelievers,
and separate yourselves from them, says the LORD.
Don't touch their filthy things,
and I will welcome you.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:4 - I have the highest confidence in you, and I take great pride in you. You have greatly encouraged me and made me happy despite all our troubles.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:8 - I am not sorry that I sent that severe letter to you, though I was sorry at first, for I know it was painful to you for a little while.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:12 - My purpose, then, was not to write about who did the wrong or who was wronged. I wrote to you so that in the sight of God you could see for yourselves how loyal you are to us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:15 - Now he cares for you more than ever when he remembers the way all of you obeyed him and welcomed him with such fear and deep respect.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:6 - So we have urged Titus, who encouraged your giving in the first place, to return to you and encourage you to finish this ministry of giving.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:9 - You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty he could make you rich.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:17 - Titus welcomed our request that he visit you again. In fact, he himself was very eager to go and see you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:22 - We are also sending with them another of our brothers who has proven himself many times and has shown on many occasions how eager he is. He is now even more enthusiastic because of his great confidence in you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:23 - If anyone asks about Titus, say that he is my partner who works with me to help you. And the brothers with him have been sent by the churches,[fn] and they bring honor to Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:4 - We would be embarrassed—not to mention your own embarrassment—if some Macedonian believers came with me and found that you weren't ready after all I had told them!
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:5 - So I thought I should send these brothers ahead of me to make sure the gift you promised is ready. But I want it to be a willing gift, not one given grudgingly.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:8 - And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:14 - And they will pray for you with deep affection because of the overflowing grace God has given to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:1 - Now I, Paul, appeal to you with the gentleness and kindness of Christ—though I realize you think I am timid in person and bold only when I write from far away.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:9 - I'm not trying to frighten you by my letters.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:14 - We are not reaching beyond these boundaries when we claim authority over you, as if we had never visited you. For we were the first to travel all the way to Corinth with the Good News of Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:2 - For I am jealous for you with the jealousy of God himself. I promised you as a pure bride[fn] to one husband—Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:6 - I may be unskilled as a speaker, but I'm not lacking in knowledge. We have made this clear to you in every possible way.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:9 - And when I was with you and didn't have enough to live on, I did not become a financial burden to anyone. For the brothers who came from Macedonia brought me all that I needed. I have never been a burden to you, and I never will be.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:11 - Why? Because I don't love you? God knows that I do.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:20 - You put up with it when someone enslaves you, takes everything you have, takes advantage of you, takes control of everything, and slaps you in the face.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:14 - Now I am coming to you for the third time, and I will not be a burden to you. I don't want what you have—I want you. After all, children don't provide for their parents. Rather, parents provide for their children.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:15 - I will gladly spend myself and all I have for you, even though it seems that the more I love you, the less you love me.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:16 - Some of you admit I was not a burden to you. But others still think I was sneaky and took advantage of you by trickery.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:17 - But how? Did any of the men I sent to you take advantage of you?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:18 - When I urged Titus to visit you and sent our other brother with him, did Titus take advantage of you? No! For we have the same spirit and walk in each other's steps, doing things the same way.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:20 - For I am afraid that when I come I won't like what I find, and you won't like my response. I am afraid that I will find quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorderly behavior.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:21 - Yes, I am afraid that when I come again, God will humble me in your presence. And I will be grieved because many of you have not given up your old sins. You have not repented of your impurity, sexual immorality, and eagerness for lustful pleasure.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:1 - This is the third time I am coming to visit you (and as the Scriptures say, “The facts of every case must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses”[fn]).
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:3 - I will give you all the proof you want that Christ speaks through me. Christ is not weak when he deals with you; he is powerful among you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:4 - Although he was crucified in weakness, he now lives by the power of God. We, too, are weak, just as Christ was, but when we deal with you we will be alive with him and will have God's power.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:7 - We pray to God that you will not do what is wrong by refusing our correction. I hope we won't need to demonstrate our authority when we arrive. Do the right thing before we come—even if that makes it look like we have failed to demonstrate our authority.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:13 - All of God's people here send you their greetings.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:6 - I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ.[fn] You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:7 - but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:9 - I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:5 - But we refused to give in to them for a single moment. We wanted to preserve the truth of the gospel message for you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:1 - Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ's death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:11 - I fear for you. Perhaps all my hard work with you was for nothing.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:17 - Those false teachers are so eager to win your favor, but their intentions are not good. They are trying to shut you off from me so that you will pay attention only to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:18 - If someone is eager to do good things for you, that's all right; but let them do it all the time, not just when I'm with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:20 - I wish I were with you right now so I could change my tone. But at this distance I don't know how else to help you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:2 - Listen! I, Paul, tell you this: If you are counting on circumcision to make you right with God, then Christ will be of no benefit to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:7 - You were running the race so well. Who has held you back from following the truth?
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:8 - It certainly isn't God, for he is the one who called you to freedom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:10 - I am trusting the Lord to keep you from believing false teachings. God will judge that person, whoever he is, who has been confusing you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:12 - I just wish that those troublemakers who want to mutilate you by circumcision would mutilate themselves.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:12 - Those who are trying to force you to be circumcised want to look good to others. They don't want to be persecuted for teaching that the cross of Christ alone can save.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:13 - And even those who advocate circumcision don't keep the whole law themselves. They only want you to be circumcised so they can boast about it and claim you as their disciples.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:15 - Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God's people everywhere,[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 1:18 - I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:1 - Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:2 - assuming, by the way, that you know God gave me the special responsibility of extending his grace to you Gentiles.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:1 - Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:17 - With the Lord's authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:22 - throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:6 - Don't be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:11 - Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:22 - I have sent him to you for this very purpose—to let you know how we are doing and to encourage you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:7 - So it is right that I should feel as I do about all of you, for you have a special place in my heart. You share with me the special favor of God, both in my imprisonment and in defending and confirming the truth of the Good News.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:8 - God knows how much I love you and long for you with the tender compassion of Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:10 - For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ's return.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:12 - And I want you to know, my dear brothers and sisters,[fn] that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:24 - But for your sakes, it is better that I continue to live.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:26 - And when I come to you again, you will have even more reason to take pride in Christ Jesus because of what he is doing through me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:27 - Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ. Then, whether I come and see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are standing together with one spirit and one purpose, fighting together for the faith, which is the Good News.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:25 - Meanwhile, I thought I should send Epaphroditus back to you. He is a true brother, co-worker, and fellow soldier. And he was your messenger to help me in my need.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:26 - I am sending him because he has been longing to see you, and he was very distressed that you heard he was ill.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:21 - Give my greetings to each of God's holy people—all who belong to Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their greetings.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:22 - And all the rest of God's people send you greetings, too, especially those in Caesar's household.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:6 - This same Good News that came to you is going out all over the world. It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and understood the truth about God's wonderful grace.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:12 - always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:21 - This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:22 - Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:25 - God has given me the responsibility of serving his church by proclaiming his entire message to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:1 - I want you to know how much I have agonized for you and for the church at Laodicea, and for many other believers who have never met me personally.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:4 - I am telling you this so no one will deceive you with well-crafted arguments.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:8 - Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers[fn] of this world, rather than from Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:13 - You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:16 - So don't let anyone condemn you for what you eat or drink, or for not celebrating certain holy days or new moon ceremonies or Sabbaths.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:18 - Don't let anyone condemn you by insisting on pious self-denial or the worship of angels,[fn] saying they have had visions about these things. Their sinful minds have made them proud,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 4:6 - Let your conversation be gracious and attractive[fn] so that you will have the right response for everyone.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 4:8 - I have sent him to you for this very purpose—to let you know how we are doing and to encourage you.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 4:10 - Aristarchus, who is in prison with me, sends you his greetings, and so does Mark, Barnabas's cousin. As you were instructed before, make Mark welcome if he comes your way.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 4:12 - Epaphras, a member of your own fellowship and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you his greetings. He always prays earnestly for you, asking God to make you strong and perfect, fully confident that you are following the whole will of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 4:14 - Luke, the beloved doctor, sends his greetings, and so does Demas.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 1:5 - For when we brought you the Good News, it was not only with words but also with power, for the Holy Spirit gave you full assurance[fn] that what we said was true. And you know of our concern for you from the way we lived when we were with you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 1:7 - As a result, you have become an example to all the believers in Greece—throughout both Macedonia and Achaia.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 1:9 - for they keep talking about the wonderful welcome you gave us and how you turned away from idols to serve the living and true God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:1 - You yourselves know, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] that our visit to you was not a failure.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:2 - You know how badly we had been treated at Philippi just before we came to you and how much we suffered there. Yet our God gave us the courage to declare his Good News to you boldly, in spite of great opposition.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:9 - Don't you remember, dear brothers and sisters, how hard we worked among you? Night and day we toiled to earn a living so that we would not be a burden to any of you as we preached God's Good News to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:11 - And you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:12 - We pleaded with you, encouraged you, and urged you to live your lives in a way that God would consider worthy. For he called you to share in his Kingdom and glory.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:18 - We wanted very much to come to you, and I, Paul, tried again and again, but Satan prevented us.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:2 - and we sent Timothy to visit you. He is our brother and God's co-worker[fn] in proclaiming the Good News of Christ. We sent him to strengthen you, to encourage you in your faith,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:4 - Even while we were with you, we warned you that troubles would soon come—and they did, as you well know.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:5 - That is why, when I could bear it no longer, I sent Timothy to find out whether your faith was still strong. I was afraid that the tempter had gotten the best of you and that our work had been useless.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:6 - But now Timothy has just returned, bringing us good news about your faith and love. He reports that you always remember our visit with joy and that you want to see us as much as we want to see you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:9 - How we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy as we enter God's presence.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:11 - May God our Father and our Lord Jesus bring us to you very soon.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:12 - And may the Lord make your love for one another and for all people grow and overflow, just as our love for you overflows.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:1 - Finally, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] we urge you in the name of the Lord Jesus to live in a way that pleases God, as we have taught you. You live this way already, and we encourage you to do so even more.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:3 - God's will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:8 - Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:10 - Indeed, you already show your love for all the believers[fn] throughout Macedonia. Even so, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you to love them even more.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:13 - And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died[fn] so you will not grieve like people who have no hope.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:4 - But you aren't in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won't be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:12 - Dear brothers and sisters, honor those who are your leaders in the Lord's work. They work hard among you and give you spiritual guidance.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:14 - Brothers and sisters, we urge you to warn those who are lazy. Encourage those who are timid. Take tender care of those who are weak. Be patient with everyone.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:18 - Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:23 - Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:24 - God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:27 - I command you in the name of the Lord to read this letter to all the brothers and sisters.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:5 - And God will use this persecution to show his justice and to make you worthy of his Kingdom, for which you are suffering.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:6 - In his justice he will pay back those who persecute you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:10 - When he comes on that day, he will receive glory from his holy people—praise from all who believe. And this includes you, for you believed what we told you about him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 1:11 - So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a life worthy of his call. May he give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:1 - Now, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] let us clarify some things about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and how we will be gathered to meet him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:2 - Don't be so easily shaken or alarmed by those who say that the day of the Lord has already begun. Don't believe them, even if they claim to have had a spiritual vision, a revelation, or a letter supposedly from us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:3 - Don't be fooled by what they say. For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God and the man of lawlessness[fn] is revealed—the one who brings destruction.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:5 - Don't you remember that I told you about all this when I was with you?
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:13 - As for us, we can't help but thank God for you, dear brothers and sisters loved by the Lord. We are always thankful that God chose you to be among the first[fn] to experience salvation—a salvation that came through the Spirit who makes you holy and through your belief in the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:14 - He called you to salvation when we told you the Good News; now you can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:1 - Finally, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] we ask you to pray for us. Pray that the Lord's message will spread rapidly and be honored wherever it goes, just as when it came to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:3 - But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:4 - And we are confident in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we commanded you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:6 - And now, dear brothers and sisters, we give you this command in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: Stay away from all believers[fn] who live idle lives and don't follow the tradition they received[fn] from us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:10 - Even while we were with you, we gave you this command: “Those unwilling to work will not get to eat.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 5:12 - You have been believers so long now that you ought to be teaching others. Instead, you need someone to teach you again the basic things about God's word.[fn] You are like babies who need milk and cannot eat solid food.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:20 - Then he said, “This blood confirms the covenant God has made with you.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:21 - may he equip you with all you need
for doing his will.
May he produce in you,[fn]
through the power of Jesus Christ,
every good thing that is pleasing to him.
All glory to him forever and ever! Amen.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:22 - I urge you, dear brothers and sisters,[fn] to pay attention to what I have written in this brief exhortation.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:23 - I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released from jail. If he comes here soon, I will bring him with me to see you.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:24 - Greet all your leaders and all the believers there.[fn] The believers from Italy send you their greetings.
