C1-S1 (Verse 1-3), C1-S2 (Verse 4-8), C1-S3 (Verse 9), C1-S4 (Verse 10), C1-S5 (Verse 11), C1-S6 (Verse 12), C1-S7 (Verse 13), C1-S8 (Verse 13), C1-S9 (Verse 13), C1-S10 (Verse 14-15), C1-S11 (Verse 16), C1-S12 (Verse 17), C1-S13 (Verse 18), C1-S14 (Verse 19), C1-S15 (Verse 20), C1-S16 (Verse 20), C1-S17 (Verse 20), C1-S18 (Verse 20), C1-S19 (Verse 21), C1-S20 (Verse 22-24), C1-S21 (Verse 25), C1-S22 (Verse 26-29), C1-S23 (Verse 30-31) .C1-S1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
C1-S2 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ; That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge; Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
C1-S3 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
C1-S4 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
C1-S5 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
C1-S6 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
C1-S7 Is Christ divided?
C1-S8 was Paul crucified for you?
C1-S9 or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
C1-S10 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.
C1-S11 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
C1-S12 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
C1-S13 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
C1-S14 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
C1-S15 Where is the wise?
C1-S16 where is the scribe?
C1-S17 where is the disputer of this world?
C1-S18 hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
C1-S19 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
C1-S20 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
C1-S21 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
C1-S22 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.
C1-S23 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

C2-S2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
C2-S3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
C2-S4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
C2-S5 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
C2-S6 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
C2-S7 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
C2-S8 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?
C2-S9 even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
C2-S10 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
C2-S11 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
C2-S12 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
C2-S13 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
C2-S14 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him?
C2-S15 But we have the mind of Christ.

C3-S2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
C3-S3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
C3-S4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
C3-S5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
C3-S6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
C3-S7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
C3-S8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
C3-S9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
C3-S10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon.
C3-S11 But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
C3-S12 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
C3-S13 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
C3-S14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
C3-S15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
C3-S16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
C3-S17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
C3-S18 Let no man deceive himself.
C3-S19 If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
C3-S20 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.
C3-S21 For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
C3-S22 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
C3-S23 Therefore let no man glory in men.
C3-S24 For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

C4-S2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
C4-S3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
C4-S4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.
C4-S5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.
C4-S6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
C4-S7 For who maketh thee to differ from another ?
C4-S8 and what hast thou that thou didst not receive?
C4-S9 now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it ?
C4-S10 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.
C4-S11 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.
C4-S12 We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.
C4-S13 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.
C4-S14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.
C4-S15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
C4-S16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.
C4-S17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
C4-S18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.
C4-S19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
C4-S20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
C4-S21 What will ye?
C4-S22 shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

C5-S2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
C5-S3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
C5-S4 Your glorying is not good.
C5-S5 Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
C5-S6 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened.
C5-S7 For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
C5-S8 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
C5-S9 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
C5-S10 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without?
C5-S11 do not ye judge them that are within?
C5-S12 But them that are without God judgeth.
C5-S13 Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

C6-S2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world?
C6-S3 and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
C6-S4 Know ye not that we shall judge angels?
C6-S5 how much more things that pertain to this life?
C6-S6 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
C6-S7 I speak to your shame.
C6-S8 Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you?
C6-S9 no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?
C6-S10 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
C6-S11 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another.
C6-S12 Why do ye not rather take wrong?
C6-S13 why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
C6-S14 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
C6-S15 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
C6-S16 Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
C6-S17 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
C6-S18 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
C6-S19 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them.
C6-S20 Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
C6-S21 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
C6-S22 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ?
C6-S23 shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot?
C6-S24 God forbid.
C6-S25 What?
C6-S26 know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body?
C6-S27 for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
C6-S28 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
C6-S29 Flee fornication.
C6-S30 Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
C6-S31 What?
C6-S32 know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
C6-S33 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

C7-S2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
C7-S3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
C7-S4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
C7-S5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
C7-S6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
C7-S7 For I would that all men were even as I myself.
C7-S8 But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
C7-S9 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
C7-S10 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
C7-S11 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
C7-S12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
C7-S13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
C7-S14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
C7-S15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart.
C7-S16 A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
C7-S17 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband?
C7-S18 or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
C7-S19 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk.
C7-S20 And so ordain I in all churches.
C7-S21 Is any man called being circumcised?
C7-S22 let him not become uncircumcised.
C7-S23 Is any called in uncircumcision?
C7-S24 let him not be circumcised.
C7-S25 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
C7-S26 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
C7-S27 Art thou called being a servant?
C7-S28 care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
C7-S29 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.
C7-S30 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
C7-S31 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
C7-S32 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
C7-S33 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.
C7-S34 Art thou bound unto a wife?
C7-S35 seek not to be loosed.
C7-S36 Art thou loosed from a wife?
C7-S37 seek not a wife.
C7-S38 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned.
C7-S39 Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
C7-S40 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
C7-S41 But I would have you without carefulness.
C7-S42 He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord: But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
C7-S43 There is difference also between a wife and a virgin.
C7-S44 The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
C7-S45 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
C7-S46 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
C7-S47 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
C7-S48 So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.
C7-S49 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
C7-S50 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

C8-S2 Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
C8-S3 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
C8-S4 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
C8-S5 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
C8-S6 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
C8-S7 Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
C8-S8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
C8-S9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.
C8-S10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols; And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
C8-S11 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
C8-S12 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

C9-S2 am I not free?
C9-S3 have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord?
C9-S4 are not ye my work in the Lord?
C9-S5 If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.
C9-S6 Mine answer to them that do examine me is this, Have we not power to eat and to drink?
C9-S7 Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
C9-S8 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
C9-S9 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges?
C9-S10 who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof?
C9-S11 or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
C9-S12 Say I these things as a man?
C9-S13 or saith not the law the same also?
C9-S14 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn.
C9-S15 Doth God take care for oxen?
C9-S16 Or saith he it altogether for our sakes?
C9-S17 For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
C9-S18 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
C9-S19 If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather?
C9-S20 Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.
C9-S21 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple?
C9-S22 and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
C9-S23 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
C9-S24 But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
C9-S25 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
C9-S26 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
C9-S27 What is my reward then?
C9-S28 Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
C9-S29 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
C9-S30 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
C9-S31 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
C9-S32 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
C9-S33 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize?
C9-S34 So run, that ye may obtain.
C9-S35 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things.
C9-S36 Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
C9-S37 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

C10-S2 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
C10-S3 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
C10-S4 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
C10-S5 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
C10-S6 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
C10-S7 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
C10-S8 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
C10-S9 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
C10-S10 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
C10-S11 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.
C10-S12 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
C10-S13 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ?
C10-S14 The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
C10-S15 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
C10-S16 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
C10-S17 What say I then?
C10-S18 that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
C10-S19 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
C10-S20 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
C10-S21 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy?
C10-S22 are we stronger than he?
C10-S23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
C10-S24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.
C10-S25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake: For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
C10-S26 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
C10-S27 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
C10-S28 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
C10-S29 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
C10-S30 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

C11-S2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.
C11-S3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
C11-S4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
C11-S5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
C11-S6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
C11-S7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
C11-S8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
C11-S9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
C11-S10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
C11-S11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
C11-S12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
C11-S13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
C11-S14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
C11-S15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
C11-S16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
C11-S17 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
C11-S18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
C11-S19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
C11-S20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper.
C11-S21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
C11-S22 What?
C11-S23 have ye not houses to eat and to drink in?
C11-S24 or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not?
C11-S25 What shall I say to you?
C11-S26 shall I praise you in this?
C11-S27 I praise you not.
C11-S28 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
C11-S29 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
C11-S30 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
C11-S31 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
C11-S32 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
C11-S33 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
C11-S34 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
C11-S35 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
C11-S36 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
C11-S37 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
C11-S38 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation.
C11-S39 And the rest will I set in order when I come.

C12-S2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
C12-S3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
C12-S4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
C12-S5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
C12-S6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
C12-S7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
C12-S8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
C12-S9 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
C12-S10 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
C12-S11 For the body is not one member, but many.
C12-S12 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
C12-S13 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
C12-S14 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing?
C12-S15 If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
C12-S16 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
C12-S17 And if they were all one member, where were the body?
C12-S18 But now are they many members, yet but one body.
C12-S19 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
C12-S20 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
C12-S21 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
C12-S22 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
C12-S23 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
C12-S24 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
C12-S25 Are all apostles?
C12-S26 are all prophets?
C12-S27 are all teachers?
C12-S28 are all workers of miracles?
C12-S29 Have all the gifts of healing?
C12-S30 do all speak with tongues?
C12-S31 do all interpret?
C12-S32 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

C13-S2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
C13-S3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
C13-S4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
C13-S5 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
C13-S6 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
C13-S7 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
C13-S8 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

C14-S2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
C14-S3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
C14-S4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
C14-S5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
C14-S6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
C14-S7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
C14-S8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
C14-S9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken?
C14-S10 for ye shall speak into the air.
C14-S11 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.
C14-S12 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.
C14-S13 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.
C14-S14 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret.
C14-S15 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
C14-S16 What is it then?
C14-S17 I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
C14-S18 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?
C14-S19 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
C14-S20 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
C14-S21 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
C14-S22 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
C14-S23 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.
C14-S24 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
C14-S25 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
C14-S26 How is it then, brethren?
C14-S27 when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation.
C14-S28 Let all things be done unto edifying.
C14-S29 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
C14-S30 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
C14-S31 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
C14-S32 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
C14-S33 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
C14-S34 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
C14-S35 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
C14-S36 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
C14-S37 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
C14-S38 What?
C14-S39 came the word of God out from you?
C14-S40 or came it unto you only?
C14-S41 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
C14-S42 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
C14-S43 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
C14-S44 Let all things be done decently and in order.

C15-S2 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
C15-S3 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
C15-S4 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
C15-S5 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
C15-S6 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
C15-S7 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
C15-S8 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
C15-S9 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
C15-S10 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
C15-S11 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
C15-S12 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
C15-S13 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
C15-S14 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
C15-S15 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
C15-S16 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
C15-S17 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
C15-S18 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
C15-S19 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
C15-S20 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
C15-S21 For he hath put all things under his feet.
C15-S22 But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
C15-S23 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
C15-S24 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all?
C15-S25 why are they then baptized for the dead?
C15-S26 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
C15-S27 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
C15-S28 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not?
C15-S29 let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
C15-S30 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
C15-S31 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
C15-S32 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up?
C15-S33 and with what body do they come?
C15-S34 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
C15-S35 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
C15-S36 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
C15-S37 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
C15-S38 So also is the resurrection of the dead.
C15-S39 It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.
C15-S40 There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
C15-S41 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
C15-S42 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
C15-S43 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
C15-S44 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
C15-S45 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
C15-S46 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
C15-S47 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
C15-S48 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
C15-S49 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
C15-S50 O death, where is thy sting?
C15-S51 O grave, where is thy victory?
C15-S52 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
C15-S53 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
C15-S54 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

C16-S2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
C16-S3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
C16-S4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
C16-S5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.
C16-S6 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
C16-S7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.
C16-S8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
C16-S9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
C16-S10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.
C16-S11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.
C16-S12 As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.
C16-S13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
C16-S14 Let all your things be done with charity.
C16-S15 I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth.
C16-S16 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.
C16-S17 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
C16-S18 The churches of Asia salute you.

C1-S2 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
C1-S3 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
C1-S4 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
C1-S5 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
C1-S6 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
C1-S7 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
C1-S8 For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end; As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
C1-S9 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit; And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
C1-S10 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness?
C1-S11 or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?
C1-S12 But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
C1-S13 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
C1-S14 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
C1-S15 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
C1-S16 Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.
C1-S17 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

C2-S2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
C2-S3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
C2-S4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
C2-S5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
C2-S6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
C2-S7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
C2-S8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
C2-S9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
C2-S10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
C2-S11 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
C2-S12 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
C2-S13 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life.
C2-S14 And who is sufficient for these things?
C2-S15 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

C3-S2 or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?
C3-S3 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
C3-S4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
C3-S5 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away: How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
C3-S6 For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
C3-S7 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
C3-S8 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
C3-S9 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
C3-S10 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
C3-S11 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
C3-S12 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
C3-S13 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

C4-S2 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
C4-S3 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
C4-S4 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
C4-S5 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
C4-S6 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
C4-S7 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
C4-S8 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
C4-S9 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
C4-S10 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
C4-S11 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
C4-S12 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

C5-S2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
C5-S3 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
C5-S4 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
C5-S5 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
C5-S6 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
C5-S7 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
C5-S8 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
C5-S9 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.
C5-S10 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
C5-S11 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
C5-S12 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
C5-S13 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
C5-S14 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
C5-S15 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
C5-S16 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

C6-S2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
C6-S3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
C6-S4 O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.
C6-S5 Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.
C6-S6 Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged.
C6-S7 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
C6-S8 and what communion hath light with darkness?
C6-S9 And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
C6-S10 or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
C6-S11 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?
C6-S12 for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
C6-S13 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

C7-S2 Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.
C7-S3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.
C7-S4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.
C7-S5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.
C7-S6 Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus; And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.
C7-S7 For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.
C7-S8 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
C7-S9 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
C7-S10 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge!
C7-S11 In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
C7-S12 Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
C7-S13 Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
C7-S14 For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.
C7-S15 And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
C7-S16 I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.

C8-S2 For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves; Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.
C8-S3 And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.
C8-S4 Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.
C8-S5 Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.
C8-S6 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.
C8-S7 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
C8-S8 And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.
C8-S9 Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.
C8-S10 For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
C8-S11 For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened: But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality: As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.
C8-S12 But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.
C8-S13 For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you.
C8-S14 And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches; And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind: Avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us: Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
C8-S15 And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which I have in you.
C8-S16 Whether any do inquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellowhelper concerning you: or our brethren be inquired of, they are the messengers of the churches, and the glory of Christ.
C8-S17 Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.

C9-S2 Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready: Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.
C9-S3 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.
C9-S4 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
C9-S5 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
C9-S6 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.
C9-S7 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God; Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection into the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men; And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you.
C9-S8 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

C10-S2 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
C10-S3 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance?
C10-S4 If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.
C10-S5 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed: That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.
C10-S6 For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.
C10-S7 Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters when we are absent, such will we be also in deed when we are present.
C10-S8 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
C10-S9 But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to reach even unto you.
C10-S10 For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ: Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men's labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly, To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand.
C10-S11 But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
C10-S12 For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

C11-S3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
C11-S4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
C11-S5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
C11-S6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
C11-S7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?
C11-S8 I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.
C11-S9 And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.
C11-S10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
C11-S11 Wherefore?
C11-S12 because I love you not?
C11-S13 God knoweth.
C11-S14 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
C11-S15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
C11-S16 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
C11-S17 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
C11-S18 I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
C11-S19 That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.
C11-S20 Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
C11-S21 For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.
C11-S22 For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

C12-S4 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
C12-S5 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.
C12-S6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
C12-S7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
C12-S8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
C12-S9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.
C12-S10 Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
C12-S11 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
C12-S12 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.
C12-S13 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
C12-S14 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you?
C12-S15 forgive me this wrong.
C12-S16 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
C12-S17 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.
C12-S18 But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.
C12-S19 Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?
C12-S20 I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother.
C12-S21 Did Titus make a gain of you?
C12-S22 walked we not in the same spirit?
C12-S23 walked we not in the same steps?
C12-S24 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you?
C12-S25 we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.
C12-S26 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults: And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.

C13-S2 In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
C13-S3 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare: Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
C13-S4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God.
C13-S5 For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
C13-S6 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.
C13-S7 Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
C13-S8 But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.
C13-S9 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
C13-S10 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
C13-S11 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
C13-S12 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
C13-S13 Finally, brethren, farewell.
C13-S14 Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
C13-S15 Greet one another with an holy kiss.
C13-S16 All the saints salute you.
C13-S17 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.
C13-S18 Amen.

C1-S2 Amen.
C1-S3 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
C1-S4 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
C1-S5 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
C1-S6 For do I now persuade men, or God?
C1-S7 or do I seek to please men?
C1-S8 for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
C1-S9 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
C1-S10 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
C1-S11 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
C1-S12 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
C1-S13 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
C1-S14 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.
C1-S15 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
C1-S16 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia; And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ: But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
C1-S17 And they glorified God in me.

C2-S2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
C2-S3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised: And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
C2-S4 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me: But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
C2-S5 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
C2-S6 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
C2-S7 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
C2-S8 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
C2-S9 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
C2-S10 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
C2-S11 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin?
C2-S12 God forbid.
C2-S13 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
C2-S14 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
C2-S15 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
C2-S16 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

C3-S2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
C3-S3 Are ye so foolish?
C3-S4 having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
C3-S5 Have ye suffered so many things in vain?
C3-S6 if it be yet in vain.
C3-S7 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
C3-S8 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
C3-S9 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
C3-S10 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
C3-S11 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
C3-S12 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
C3-S13 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
C3-S14 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
C3-S15 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
C3-S16 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
C3-S17 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.
C3-S18 He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
C3-S19 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
C3-S20 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
C3-S21 Wherefore then serveth the law?
C3-S22 It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
C3-S23 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.
C3-S24 Is the law then against the promises of God?
C3-S25 God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
C3-S26 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
C3-S27 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
C3-S28 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
C3-S29 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
C3-S30 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
C3-S31 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
C3-S32 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
C3-S33 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

C4-S2 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
C4-S3 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
C4-S4 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
C4-S5 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
C4-S6 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
C4-S7 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
C4-S8 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
C4-S9 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
C4-S10 Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
C4-S11 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
C4-S12 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of?
C4-S13 for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
C4-S14 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
C4-S15 They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
C4-S16 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
C4-S17 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you, I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
C4-S18 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
C4-S19 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
C4-S20 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
C4-S21 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
C4-S22 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
C4-S23 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
C4-S24 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.
C4-S25 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
C4-S26 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
C4-S27 Nevertheless what saith the scripture?
C4-S28 Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.
C4-S29 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

C5-S2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
C5-S3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
C5-S4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
C5-S5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
C5-S6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
C5-S7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
C5-S8 This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.
C5-S9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
C5-S10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
C5-S11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution?
C5-S12 then is the offence of the cross ceased.
C5-S13 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
C5-S14 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
C5-S15 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
C5-S16 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
C5-S17 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
C5-S18 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
C5-S19 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
C5-S20 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
C5-S21 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
C5-S22 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
C5-S23 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
C5-S24 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

C6-S2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
C6-S3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
C6-S4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
C6-S5 For every man shall bear his own burden.
C6-S6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.
C6-S7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

C6-S9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
C6-S10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
C6-S11 Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.
C6-S12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
C6-S13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
C6-S14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
C6-S15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
C6-S16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
C6-S17 From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
C6-S18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
C6-S19 Amen.

C1-S2 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
C1-S3 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
C1-S4 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
C1-S5 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

C2-S2 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
C2-S3 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
C2-S4 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
C2-S5 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
C2-S6 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
C2-S7 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
C2-S8 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

C3-S2 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
C3-S3 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
C3-S4 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
C3-S5 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.

C4-S2 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
C4-S3 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
C4-S4 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
C4-S5 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
C4-S6 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
C4-S7 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
C4-S8 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
C4-S9 But ye have not so learned Christ; If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
C4-S10 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
C4-S11 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil.
C4-S12 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
C4-S13 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
C4-S14 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
C4-S15 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

C5-S2 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
C5-S3 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
C5-S4 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
C5-S5 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
C5-S6 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
C5-S7 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
C5-S8 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
C5-S9 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
C5-S10 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
C5-S11 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
C5-S12 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
C5-S13 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
C5-S14 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
C5-S15 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
C5-S16 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
C5-S17 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
C5-S18 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies.
C5-S19 He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
C5-S20 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
C5-S21 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
C5-S22 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
C5-S23 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

C6-S4 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.

C6-S10 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
C6-S11 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
C6-S12 But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things: Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.

C1-S2 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now; Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
C1-S3 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
C1-S4 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
C1-S5 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
C1-S6 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
C1-S7 What then?
C1-S8 notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
C1-S9 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
C1-S10 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
C1-S11 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
C1-S12 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
C1-S13 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith; That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.
C1-S14 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
C1-S15 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

C2-S2 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
C2-S3 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
C2-S4 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
C2-S5 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
C2-S6 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
C2-S7 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
C2-S8 Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
C2-S9 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
C2-S10 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
C2-S11 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
C2-S12 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.
C2-S13 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.
C2-S14 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.
C2-S15 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.
C2-S16 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.
C2-S17 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellow soldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.
C2-S18 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.
C2-S19 For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
C2-S20 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
C2-S21 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation: Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.

C3-S2 To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.
C3-S3 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
C3-S4 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
C3-S5 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh.
C3-S6 If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
C3-S7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
C3-S8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
C3-S9 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
C3-S10 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
C3-S11 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
C3-S12 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
C3-S13 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
C3-S14 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
C3-S15 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

C4-S2 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.
C4-S3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

C4-S5 Let your moderation be known unto all men.
C4-S6 The Lord is at hand.
C4-S7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
C4-S8 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
C4-S9 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
C4-S10 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
C4-S11 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
C4-S12 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
C4-S13 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
C4-S14 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
C4-S15 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
C4-S16 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
C4-S17 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
C4-S18 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
C4-S19 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
C4-S20 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
C4-S21 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever.
C4-S22 Amen.
C4-S23 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus.
C4-S24 The brethren which are with me greet you.
C4-S25 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's household.

C1-S2 We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints, For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel; Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth: As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ; Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
C1-S3 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
C1-S4 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
C1-S5 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
C1-S6 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church: Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

C2-S2 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
C2-S3 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
C2-S4 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
C2-S5 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
C2-S6 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
C2-S7 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
C2-S8 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
C2-S9 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
C2-S10 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
C2-S11 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
C2-S12 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

C3-S3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
C3-S4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
C3-S5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
C3-S6 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
C3-S7 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
C3-S8 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
C3-S9 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
C3-S10 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
C3-S11 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
C3-S12 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
C3-S13 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
C3-S14 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
C3-S15 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
C3-S16 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
C3-S17 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God: And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
C3-S18 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

C1-S2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
C1-S3 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
C1-S4 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost: So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
C1-S5 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.

C2-S2 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile: But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.
C2-S3 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness: Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
C2-S4 But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children: So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
C2-S5 For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
C2-S6 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe: As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children, That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
C2-S7 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
C2-S8 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
C2-S9 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
C2-S10 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
C2-S11 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing?

C3-S2 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.
C3-S3 For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.
C3-S4 But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you: Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affliction and distress by your faith: For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
C3-S5 For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God; Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
C3-S6 Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you.
C3-S7 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

C4-S3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

C4-S8 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
C4-S9 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
C4-S10 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
C4-S11 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

C5-S11 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake.
C5-S12 And be at peace among yourselves.
C5-S13 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
C5-S14 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
C5-S15 Rejoice evermore.
C5-S16 Pray without ceasing.
C5-S17 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
C5-S18 Quench not the Spirit.
C5-S19 Despise not prophesyings.
C5-S20 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
C5-S21 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
C5-S22 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
C5-S23 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
C5-S24 Brethren, pray for us.
C5-S25 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.
C5-S26 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
C5-S27 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

C1-S1 (Verse 1-2), C1-S2 (Verse 3-10), C1-S3 (Verse 11-12).C1-S1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
C1-S2 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
C1-S3 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

C2-S2 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
C2-S3 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
C2-S4 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
C2-S5 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
C2-S6 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
C2-S7 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
C2-S8 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
C2-S9 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
C2-S10 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

C3-S2 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
C3-S3 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.
C3-S4 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
C3-S5 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
C3-S6 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
C3-S7 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
C3-S8 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
C3-S9 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
C3-S10 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
C3-S11 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
C3-S12 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
C3-S13 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means.
C3-S14 The Lord be with you all.

C1-S1 (Verse 1-2), C1-S2 (Verse 3-4), C1-S3 (Verse 5-7), C1-S4 (Verse 8-11), C1-S5 (Verse 12-13), C1-S6 (Verse 14), C1-S7 (Verse 15), C1-S8 (Verse 16), C1-S9 (Verse 17), C1-S10 (Verse 17), C1-S11 (Verse 18-20).C1-S1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope; Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
C1-S2 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
C1-S3 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
C1-S4 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
C1-S5 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
C1-S6 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
C1-S7 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
C1-S8 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
C1-S9 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.
C1-S10 Amen.
C1-S11 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

C2-S2 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
C2-S3 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
C2-S4 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
C2-S5 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
C2-S6 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
C2-S7 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
C2-S8 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
C2-S9 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
C2-S10 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
C2-S11 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

C3-S2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
C3-S3 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
C3-S4 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
C3-S5 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
C3-S6 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
C3-S7 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
C3-S8 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
C3-S9 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
C3-S10 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
C3-S11 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

C4-S2 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
C4-S3 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
C4-S4 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
C4-S5 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
C4-S6 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

C4-S8 These things command and teach.
C4-S9 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

C5-S2 Honour widows that are widows indeed.
C5-S3 But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.
C5-S4 Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.
C5-S5 But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.
C5-S6 And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.
C5-S7 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
C5-S8 Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man, Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.
C5-S9 But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry; Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.
C5-S10 And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
C5-S11 I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
C5-S12 For some are already turned aside after Satan.
C5-S13 If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.
C5-S14 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
C5-S15 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn.
C5-S16 And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
C5-S17 Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.
C5-S18 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
C5-S19 I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.
C5-S20 Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
C5-S21 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
C5-S22 Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.
C5-S23 Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.

C6-S3 These things teach and exhort.
C6-S4 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
C6-S5 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
C6-S6 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
C6-S7 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
C6-S8 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

C6-S13 Amen.
C6-S14 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
C6-S15 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: Which some professing have erred concerning the faith.

C1-S2 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day; Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy; When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
C1-S3 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
C1-S4 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
C1-S5 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel: Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
C1-S6 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
C1-S7 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
C1-S8 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.
C1-S9 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
C1-S10 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
C1-S11 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

C2-S8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel: Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
C2-S9 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
C2-S10 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
C2-S11 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
C2-S12 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
C2-S13 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
C2-S14 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
C2-S15 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his.
C2-S16 And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
C2-S17 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
C2-S18 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
C2-S19 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
C2-S20 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
C2-S21 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

C3-S2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
C3-S3 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
C3-S4 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
C3-S5 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
C3-S6 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
C3-S7 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
C3-S8 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
C3-S9 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
C3-S10 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

C4-S2 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
C4-S3 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
C4-S4 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

C4-S13 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
C4-S14 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever.

C1-S2 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
C1-S3 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
C1-S4 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.
C1-S5 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
C1-S6 This witness is true.
C1-S7 Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
C1-S8 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.
C1-S9 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

C2-S2 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
C2-S3 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.
C2-S4 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

C3-S2 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
C3-S3 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
C3-S4 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works.
C3-S5 These things are good and profitable unto men.
C3-S6 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

C1-S2 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
C1-S3 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
C1-S4 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient, Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
C1-S5 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds: Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me: Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels: Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel: But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
C1-S6 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever; Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
C1-S7 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
C1-S8 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account; I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
C1-S9 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
C1-S10 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
C1-S11 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
