I want you to know that I have longed to visit you, but things have always prevented me from doing that. I am eager to proclaim the gospel to you who are living at Rome also.
ROM 1:15 s1 heading ends with a period: I very confidently proclaim the good message about what Christ has done, both to Jews and non-Jews, because by that message God reveals his way of declaring all people righteous.
ROM 1:17 s1 heading ends with a period: God is making it clear to all non-Jewish people who are godless and wicked that he is angry with them.
ROM 1:23 s1 heading ends with a period: So God let the non-Jewish people feel compelled to do disgraceful things, which resulted in their dishonoring their bodies sexually. He did this because they worshipped idols and things that were created instead of worshipping God. As a result of both men and women having unnatural sexual relations, they have been punished as they deserve.
ROM 1:27 s1 heading ends with a period: The result of God’s letting people become obsessed by their own depraved thoughts was that they themselves began to do all manner of evil things that God says are improper. They even approve of others doing such things.
ROM 2:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Any one of you Jews who condemns non-Jews for doing evil will be condemned by God, because you also do the same evil things.
ROM 2:5 s1 heading ends with a period: Because God is not influenced by a person’s status, he will pay back each person according to what that person has done.

ROM 3:0 s1 heading ends with a period: My reply to the objection that there is no advantage in being a Jew or being circumcised is that there is much advantage, especially since God entrusted his promises to us. My reply to the objection that God has not kept his promise is that he certainly has, for his promises are always true. My reply to the objection that it is not right for God to punish us Jews is that it certainly is right for him to punish us, because if God did not judge us Jews he could not judge anyone.
ROM 3:8 s1 heading ends with a period: My reply to a query about whether God will treat Jews more favorably than non-Jews is no, because the Scriptures make clear that all people are condemned by God for their sin.

ROM 3:20 s1 heading ends with a period: Now God erases the record of sins of everyone, Jew and non-Jew, who trusts in what Jesus Christ has done for them. God presented Christ as the one who would atone for sins by dying on the cross.
ROM 3:26 s1 heading ends with a period: So we are prevented from boasting that God saves us because of our obeying the Mosaic laws. And God will also accept non-Jews on the same basis. And by agreeing that people are declared righteous by their trusting in Christ, we actually confirm, not nullify, the Mosaic laws.
ROM 4:0 s1 heading ends with a period: We can draw conclusions from Abraham’s life about how God erases the record of our sins. Abraham could not boast about his accomplishing that because the Scriptures record that it was because he believed what God promised that God erased the record of his sins. God’s doing that was a gift, not a reward.
ROM 4:8 s1 heading ends with a period: This happiness of knowing that God has erased the record of our sins is also for the non-Jews. Remember that it was before Abraham was circumcised, when he was still in effect a non-Jew, that God did that. He later received circumcision simply as a sign of God having erased the record of his sins because of his faith. The result was that he became a spiritual father of all who believe in God as he did, whether they are circumcised or not.
ROM 4:12 s1 heading ends with a period: It was because Abraham trusted in God that God erased the record of his sins and promised him many blessings. So what God promised is guaranteed to all, both Jews and non-Jews, who trust in God as Abraham did.
ROM 4:17 s1 heading ends with a period: It was because Abraham confidently believed God’s promise to give him many descendants, when there was no physical basis for his hoping that this would happen, that God erased the record of his sins.
ROM 4:22 s1 heading ends with a period: The words about God erasing the record of Abraham’s sins were written also to assure us who believe in God.
ROM 5:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Because God has erased the record of our sins, we have peace with him, we experience his acting kindly toward us, we rejoice because we expect to receive God’s glory, and we even rejoice in suffering because we know the results that it brings.
ROM 5:5 s1 heading ends with a period: Because Christ died for us ungodly people, he will certainly save us from God’s eternal punishment, and so we boast of what he has done for us.
ROM 5:11 s1 heading ends with a period: Although the sin of one man, Adam, led to all people dying and God declaring that they deserved to be punished, Christ’s righteous act of obedience when he died led to many people experiencing God’s kindness and being declared righteous and living eternally, and it will also result in their ruling with Christ.
ROM 6:0 s1 heading ends with a period: If someone were to say that perhaps we should continue to sin in order that God may continue to act more kindly toward us, I would reply that we who ought to consider ourselves unresponsive to sinful desires should certainly not continue sinning. We must keep remembering that it is as though our former sinful nature has ceased to function, and it is as though we have become unresponsive to sinful desires, living in a new way. So do not let the desire to commit sin control you. Instead, present yourselves to God to do righteous things.
ROM 6:14 s1 heading ends with a period: If someone should conclude that people can sin now because they are not obligated to obey the Mosaic laws, I would say, “Certainly not!” Instead, let your minds compel your bodies to act righteously.
ROM 7:0 s1 heading ends with a period: You know that after people die they are freed from being required to obey any law. Similarly, God has freed us from being required to obey all the Jewish rituals and laws.
ROM 7:6 s1 heading ends with a period: My reply to the objection that the laws of Moses are evil because they cause us to sin is that the laws are holy and good; what the laws do are simply to reveal that what we are doing is sinful.
ROM 7:12 s1 heading ends with a period: My reply to the objection that God’s law, being good, causes people to become spiritually dead is no, it is our desire to commit sin that causes us to sin and become spiritually dead.
ROM 7:13 s1 heading ends with a period: The laws came from God’s Spirit, but you and I are influenced by our sinful natures. We often do not do the things that we desire, and we do the things that we detest because of a desire to sin that permeates us and prevents us from doing good, unless Christ frees us from being controlled by these desires.
ROM 8:0 s1 heading ends with a period: God will not in any way condemn those who are united to Christ Jesus, because God’s Spirit has freed us from the inevitability of sinning and from spiritual death.
ROM 8:11 s1 heading ends with a period: We are compelled to live as the Spirit directs, not as our self-directed nature directs, because if we do the latter we will be eternally separated from God, but if we cease doing the latter we will live eternally.
ROM 8:13 s1 heading ends with a period: Because we who allow the Spirit of God to guide us are God’s children, we will also inherit eternal blessings from God.
ROM 8:17 s1 heading ends with a period: Since everything that God has created is eagerly awaiting the time when he will reveal who are his true children, I consider that what we suffer now is not worth paying attention to.
ROM 8:25 s1 heading ends with a period: God’s Spirit helps us when our spirits feel weak; he prays for us and God understands what his Spirit intends.
ROM 8:27 s1 heading ends with a period: God works out all things in a way that produces good spiritual benefits for us who love him. He does this because, having known that we would be saved and thus we would have the character of his Son, he chose us and declared us righteous, and he will surely give us future splendor.
ROM 8:30 s1 heading ends with a period: We must conclude from these things that no one can defeat us, and absolutely no one and nothing can separate us from Christ’s loving us and God’s loving us.
ROM 9:0 s1 heading ends with a period: I tell you very sincerely that I grieve greatly about most of my fellow Israelites having rejected Christ. I would be willing to be separated from Christ if that would help them believe in him.
ROM 9:5 s1 heading ends with a period: This does not prove that God has failed to do for Abraham what he promised, because, as Scripture illustrates, it is not all who are naturally descended from Jacob or Abraham whom God considers to be his children, but it is those who were born as a result of what God promised whom he considers his children.
ROM 9:13 s1 heading ends with a period: As the Scriptures indicate, God’s choosing people depends not on their wishes or efforts. He helps whomever he wants to help, and he makes stubborn whomever he wants to make stubborn. We cannot conclude that God is unjust in choosing the ones he wants to choose.
ROM 9:18 s1 heading ends with a period: My reply to anyone’s objection to this doctrine is that God has a right to carry out his purposes; he tolerated the people who caused him to be angry, in order that he might disclose how gloriously he acts toward those on whom he intends to have mercy.
ROM 9:29 s1 heading ends with a period: The non-Jews found the way by which God could declare them righteous. The Jews did not succeed in fulfilling what the Mosaic laws require. Instead, they tried to find a way to be declared righteous by doing things in order that God would accept them.
ROM 10:0 s1 heading ends with a period: My deep desire and earnest prayer is that God will save the Jews, who do not understand how to seek him correctly.
ROM 10:4 s1 heading ends with a period: The message of Scripture is that those who confess publicly that Jesus is their Lord and who believe inwardly that God brought Jesus back to life will be saved, because God accepts people only because of their faith, Jews and non-Jews alike.
ROM 10:13 s1 heading ends with a period: There may be those who object by saying, “If God does not send someone to preach to the Jews, they cannot ask Christ to save them.” My reply to them is that God has already sent people to preach about Christ to them, but most of the Jews have not accepted the gospel. However, some Jews do believe in Christ, and many other people are indeed hearing the message.
ROM 10:17 s1 heading ends with a period: In reply to a question of whether the Jews have heard or understood about Christ, I would say that, as is supported by the Scriptures, they have heard it and should have understood it, because even non-Jews, who were not searching for God, understood it.
ROM 11:0 s1 heading ends with a period: God has certainly not rejected all Jews. I am evidence of that. Just like in the past, there is also at the present time a small group of us Jews who have become believers.
ROM 11:6 s1 heading ends with a period: The Scriptures confirm that the people of Israel as a whole did not find the way of being declared righteous, although those whom God had chosen did find it.
ROM 11:12 s1 heading ends with a period: I highly esteem the work that God has called me to do as an apostle among you non-Jews. I hope that I will make my fellow Jews jealous, and as a result, some of them will be saved.
ROM 11:16 s1 heading ends with a period: You non-Jews who trust in Jesus must not despise the Jews whom God has rejected. You must not become proud, but instead beware. God will not spare you if you fall away from him, and he will certainly act kindly toward the Jews if they trust in Christ.
ROM 11:24 s1 heading ends with a period: I want you to know that all the people of Israel will some day be saved, as the Scriptures say will happen. God still loves them because of their ancestors. It is his purpose to act mercifully towards them as well as toward all non-Jews.
ROM 12:0 s1 heading ends with a period: I appeal to you that you present yourselves to God by making yourselves like living sacrifices, which is the appropriate way to serve him. Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you act, but instead let God change your way of thinking.
ROM 12:2 s1 heading ends with a period: Do not think about yourselves more highly than you should. Instead, think about yourselves sensibly, in a way that corresponds to the abilities that God has given to you because you trust in Christ. May we do diligently and cheerfully what God has given us the ability to do.
ROM 12:8 s1 heading ends with a period: In the various ways in which you act toward people, love them sincerely.
ROM 12:18 s1 heading ends with a period: Instead of avenging yourselves, allow God to avenge you; and instead of being overcome by something evil done to you, overcome evil deeds by doing good to those who do evil to you, because this is what the Scriptures command.
ROM 13:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Be subject to civil authorities, because those who oppose them oppose what God has established and will bring punishment on themselves. Do what is good and then they will commend you. Give to all the authorities what you are obligated to give to them.
ROM 13:7 s1 heading ends with a period: Do not leave any debt unpaid. Your only continual obligation is to love one another, because doing so fulfills all that God’s law requires.
ROM 13:10 s1 heading ends with a period: Because it is time for us to be fully alert and active, we must quit doing wicked deeds. We must do those things that will help us resist that which is evil, we must live properly, and we must be like Christ.
ROM 14:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Accept those who are not sure whether they are permitted to do certain things. Anyone who thinks that it is all right to eat all kinds of food must not despise those who do not think that, and those who do not think that it is all right to eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, because God has accepted them.
ROM 14:4 s1 heading ends with a period: Each person should be fully convinced about observing special days, thinking and deciding for himself and not for others. We should try to please God by everything we do.
ROM 14:9 s1 heading ends with a period: You should neither condemn nor despise your fellow believers who believe differently about religious regulations than you do, because it is God who will say whether he approves of what we have done.
ROM 14:12 s1 heading ends with a period: Instead of condemning each other, decide not to do anything that might lead your fellow believer to sin by following your example and which would then cause others to speak evil of you.
ROM 14:18 s1 heading ends with a period: Try to do what will help fellow believers to be at peace with each other and to grow spiritually. Do not destroy what God has done in others’ lives as a result of your eating certain things.
ROM 15:0 s1 heading ends with a period: We should not be irritated by the practices of those who are uncertain whether God will condemn them for doing certain things that the Mosaic laws forbid. Instead, we should do things that please our fellow Christians, because Christ has set us an example.
ROM 15:4 s1 heading ends with a period: May God enable you all to live harmoniously with each other.
ROM 15:6 s1 heading ends with a period: Accept each other as Christ has accepted you, remembering that what Christ has done was both to help the Jews and to cause non-Jews to praise God.
ROM 15:12 s1 heading ends with a period: May God make you completely joyful and peaceful in order that you may confidently expect him to do what he has promised.
ROM 15:13 s1 heading ends with a period: I have written frankly to you in this letter because of what God has kindly commissioned me to do among non-Jews.
ROM 15:16 s1 heading ends with a period: I am happy about my work for God that I have now completed in this region by proclaiming the gospel in places where people have not heard about Christ.
ROM 15:21 s1 heading ends with a period: Because of this work, I have often been hindered from visiting you, but I hope to see you as I journey through your area and I hope that you will give me what I need for my next journey. But now I am about to go to Jerusalem to take funds to God’s people there. So later I will visit you in Rome, and I know that Christ will bless us there.
ROM 15:29 s1 heading ends with a period: I urge you to pray fervently that God will protect me from the unbelieving Jews in Judea and that God’s people there will accept the money that I take to them, and also that I may be refreshed by visiting you. May God be with you all.
ROM 16:0 s1 heading ends with a period: I am introducing and commending Phoebe to you, and I ask that you receive her as a fellow believer and that you give her whatever she needs.
ROM 16:2 s1 heading ends with a period: I send my greetings to many individuals among the believers there. All the congregations in this area also send their greetings to you.
ROM 16:16 s1 heading ends with a period: Note those who are causing quarrels among you and those who cause people to turn away from God. Avoid them, because they only want to satisfy their own desires and deceive those who do not suspect their motives. If you avoid such people, God will soon crush Satan under your feet.
ROM 16:20 s1 heading ends with a period: Several of those who are with me send their greetings.
ROM 16:23-24 s1 heading ends with a period: We should forever praise the One who alone is God, who alone is truly wise.

CO1 1:9 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop dividing into groups in your congregations on the basis of which Christian leader you favor.
CO1 1:17 s1 heading ends with a period: The message about Christ dying on the cross is the means of saving us who believe it.
CO1 1:19 s1 heading ends with a period: Some people think that the message about Christ is foolish, but to us whom God has chosen, it shows God’s power.
CO1 1:25 s1 heading ends with a period: God chose mostly despised, not important, people to belong to Christ; so you should boast only about him.
CO1 2:0 s1 heading ends with a period: God showed that my message was true by the powerful things that he did, not because I spoke in a way that would make people think highly of me.
CO1 2:5 s1 heading ends with a period: Unbelievers do not consider that my message is wise, because I speak what God’s Spirit reveals to me.
CO1 3:0 s1 heading ends with a period: I was unable to teach you difficult concepts, because you were controlled by your self-directed nature, as evidenced by your quarreling about which leader you should be loyal to.
CO1 3:4 s1 heading ends with a period: I preached the gospel to you first, and Apollos followed, but we are both serving God equally.
CO1 3:9 s1 heading ends with a period: Each one who teaches believers must examine what he is teaching them because God will reward him only if his teaching is valuable and long-lasting.

CO1 3:17 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop being proud of one Christian leader or another, because we are all just working for your benefit.
CO1 4:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop evaluating your leaders’ value; do not be proud of one and despise another.

CO1 7:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Married people should not deprive their spouses of sexual relations, except under special conditions.

CO1 7:28 s1 heading ends with a period: We believers should not devote our time to the affairs of this life.

CO1 7:35 s1 heading ends with a period: It is better for a man to decide that his daughter should remain unmarried than that she should get married, but either decision is all right.
CO1 7:38 s1 heading ends with a period: Women whose husbands have died are free to get remarried, but only to believers. However, they will probably be happier if they do not marry again.

CO1 8:3 s1 heading ends with a period: There are many idols that people think are gods, but there is only one true God.
CO1 8:6 s1 heading ends with a period: Do not eat meat offered to idols if that would encourage other believers to eat that food contrary to their conscience.
CO1 9:0 s1 heading ends with a period: As your apostle I am free to do anything that God allows me to do.
CO1 9:2 s1 heading ends with a period: Barnabas and I have the same right to receive financial support that the other apostles have.
CO1 9:7 s1 heading ends with a period: God’s servants have always had the right to receive financial help from others, but we have not insisted on that right because we want to preach the gospel without charge.

CO2 1:11 s1 heading ends with a period: You can trust what I tell you. I did not visit you, because I wanted to give you the opportunity to obey the instructions that I wrote to you. Now that you have punished enough the man who caused those problems, I urge you to forgive him and to encourage him.
CO2 2:11 s1 heading ends with a period: I did not find Titus in Troas, so I went on to Macedonia province. Everywhere we go, God causes people to know Christ through our teaching. We do not teach in order to get money; we teach with sincere motives.

CO2 8:15 s1 heading ends with a period: I am sending Titus to you, along with two other believers, to help you get your gift ready. They are all well respected and trustworthy men, so treat them well. It will be good if you have your gift ready to send to Judea province by the time I arrive in Corinth.
CO2 9:0 s1 heading ends with a period: You and I will be ashamed if your gift is not ready when I arrive.
CO2 9:5 s1 heading ends with a period: If you give generously and willingly, God will always continue to bless you so that you will have enough to continue giving generously, and your generosity will cause many other people to praise and honor God.
CO2 10:6 s1 heading ends with a period: Those who teach what is false must come to realize that I also belong to Christ and that God has given me authority over you. I worry that they will deceive you and that you will stop being faithful to Christ alone.
CO2 11:6 s1 heading ends with a period: You are mistaken if you think that I do not love you because I refused to accept money from you for my teaching. I will go on doing that to prevent those false apostles among you from boasting that they work just as I do.
CO2 11:15 s1 heading ends with a period: You seem to listen to those who boast, so I too will boast. I will boast about being a Jew (as those others do), and I will boast about having suffered greatly for Christ, and about an extraordinary vision that God gave me. Although God caused me to suffer an affliction, he promised that he would help me and strengthen me.
CO2 12:10 s1 heading ends with a period: When I was with you, I did things that showed you that I am truly Christ’s representative. But I still will not take pay from you when I come to visit you again. And those people are wrong who say that I tricked you by sending Titus to get money for myself from you.
CO2 12:18 s1 heading ends with a period: I am worried that when I visit you I will find that many of you are still sinning. I pray that God will help you turn from your sinful behavior, so that I will not have to discipline you when I come.

GAL 3:5 s1 heading ends with a period: It is those Jews and non-Jews who trust Christ who are Abraham’s spiritual descendants, because those who seek to be justified by obeying the laws that God gave Moses are condemned by God.
GAL 3:12 s1 heading ends with a period: Christ was condemned instead of us, so that God might bless the non-Jews just as he blessed Abraham, and so that we might receive the Spirit.
GAL 3:14 s1 heading ends with a period: By giving his laws to the Jews, God has not canceled what he promised to Abraham much earlier concerning his descendant, Christ. Just like God gave his blessings to Abraham just because he promised to do so, he freely gives his blessings to us.
GAL 3:18 s1 heading ends with a period: God gave his laws to supervise us sinful Jews until Christ, Abraham’s promised descendant, would come.
GAL 3:25 s1 heading ends with a period: Because of our relationship with Christ, we are Abraham’s spiritual descendants, and God’s heirs, no longer like slaves.
GAL 4:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Each of you is no longer like a slave, but a child of God and an heir of what he has promised.
GAL 4:7 s1 heading ends with a period: I plead with you to do as I did when I was with you, and not obey all the Jewish rules and rituals.
GAL 4:20 s1 heading ends with a period: Because of our relationship with Christ, we are not subject to Mosaic law; being Abraham’s spiritual descendants, we are free from such bondage.
GAL 5:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Reject the false teaching that you must be circumcised, and do not become enslaved to rules and rituals again, otherwise Christ will not benefit you at all.
GAL 5:6 s1 heading ends with a period: Although someone has confused you, I am sure that you will not accept his false teaching, and that God will punish him.
GAL 5:12 s1 heading ends with a period: Although you are free from having to obey Jewish rules, instead of doing what your self-directed nature desires, love and serve each other.
GAL 5:15 s1 heading ends with a period: Let God’s Spirit direct you, and then you will not do what your self-directed nature desires.
GAL 5:18 s1 heading ends with a period: Those who think evil thoughts and do evil things will not receive the blessings of God’s rule, but God’s Spirit produces many good qualities in our lives.

EPH 2:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Formerly we were all spiritually dead and were certain to be punished by God, but he acted very kindly toward us and saved us freely as a result of our faith in Christ.
EPH 2:10 s1 heading ends with a period: God brought you Gentiles into his family so that now you and Jewish believers both share the same blessings and form one group; you now have peace with each other and can come to God in prayer with the help of the Holy Spirit.

JAM 1:8 s1 heading ends with a period: Believers who are poor and those who are rich should both value highly what God has done for them, rather than focusing on their material resources that will disappear.
JAM 1:11 s1 heading ends with a period: God blesses those who bravely endure difficulties; he will reward them by causing them to live eternally.
JAM 1:12 s1 heading ends with a period: If people are tempted to do something evil, they should not think that it is God who is tempting them. It is their own evil desires that are tempting them to do evil.
JAM 1:15 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop thinking wrongly that God tempts you to do evil things, because God does only good things for us.
JAM 1:18 s1 heading ends with a period: Every one of you should eagerly pay attention to God’s message and should not speak hastily or get angry easily.
JAM 1:20 s1 heading ends with a period: So stop doing all kinds of evil things, and do what God commands in his message, instead of just listening to it. God approves of those who do what he wants them to do.
JAM 1:25 s1 heading ends with a period: Those who show compassion on people in need and who do not think or act immorally are those who truly worship God and receive his approval.
JAM 2:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop honoring some people more than others, because by doing that, you are disobeying God’s law that we should love one another.
JAM 2:11 s1 heading ends with a period: Continually act mercifully toward others, because God will not act mercifully to those who do not act mercifully toward others.
JAM 2:13 s1 heading ends with a period: Anyone who says that he trusts in Jesus Christ but does not act compassionately toward others is not truly trusting in Jesus.
JAM 2:17 s1 heading ends with a period: But someone may claim that some people are saved because they trust in God and other people are saved because they do good things for others. In answer to that, the inadequacy of faith without good deeds is demonstrated by the example of demons. From the examples of Abraham and Rahab we can see that only by obeying God and doing good things for others can people prove that they truly trust in God.
JAM 3:0 s1 heading ends with a period: Not many of you should become teachers, because God will judge teachers with greater severity than he will judge others. You should all strive to speak what is right, because what you say has a powerful effect on others, and it is often destructive and hypocritical.
JAM 3:12 s1 heading ends with a period: If you are jealous of others and self-seeking, do not boast that you are wise. Instead, demonstrate that you are truly wise by doing good things and by acting peaceably and compassionately toward others.

JAM 4:10 s1 heading ends with a period: Stop saying evil things about one another and thus condemning each other. Only God has the right to condemn people.
JAM 4:12 s1 heading ends with a period: You should not boast about what you will do in the future, because life is transitory. Instead, you should plan to do whatever God wants you to do, because boasting about what you want to do, rather than considering the will of God, is sinful.
JAM 5:0 s1 heading ends with a period: The rich people who oppress you should weep because they will suffer much. God will punish them because they have unjustly caused others to suffer.
JAM 5:6 s1 heading ends with a period: So wait patiently for the Lord Jesus Christ to return and to judge all people fairly. Do not complain about each other, lest Jesus judge you when he returns. From the examples of the prophets and Job, we know that God blesses and rewards those who patiently endure suffering.
JAM 5:11 s1 heading ends with a period: Do not say, “If I am lying, may God punish me.” Instead, always tell the truth, so that God will not condemn you.

ROM 1:0 | Romans 1:1-7 |
ROM 1:0 | I, Paul, an apostle whom God appointed to proclaim the good message about Jesus Christ, am writing this letter to all you believers who are in Rome. I pray that God will continue to act kindly toward you and grant you peace. |
ROM 1:7 | I thank God that people everywhere are talking about how you believers in Rome are trusting Jesus Christ. I pray that God will permit me to visit you soon. I want you to know that I have longed to visit you, but things have always prevented me from doing that. I am eager to proclaim the gospel to you who are living at Rome also. |
ROM 1:15 | I very confidently proclaim the good message about what Christ has done, both to Jews and non-Jews, because by that message God reveals his way of declaring all people righteous. |
ROM 1:17 | God is making it clear to all non-Jewish people who are godless and wicked that he is angry with them. |
ROM 1:18 | Everyone can clearly know what God is like; so no one has a basis for saying, “We never knew about God.” |
ROM 1:23 | So God let the non-Jewish people feel compelled to do disgraceful things, which resulted in their dishonoring their bodies sexually. He did this because they worshipped idols and things that were created instead of worshipping God. As a result of both men and women having unnatural sexual relations, they have been punished as they deserve. |
ROM 1:27 | The result of God’s letting people become obsessed by their own depraved thoughts was that they themselves began to do all manner of evil things that God says are improper. They even approve of others doing such things. |
ROM 2:0 | Any one of you Jews who condemns non-Jews for doing evil will be condemned by God, because you also do the same evil things. |
ROM 2:5 | Because God is not influenced by a person’s status, he will pay back each person according to what that person has done. |
ROM 2:11 | All non-Jews and all non-Jews will be eternally separated from God for their sin, since it is only those who have continually obeyed his laws whom God will justify. |
ROM 2:16 | It is disgusting that any one of you who has all the advantages of being a Jew would disobey God’s law and, by doing so, insult God. |
ROM 2:24 | God will consider non-Jews acceptable to him if they obey his laws, and such non-Jews will declare God is right in condemning those who disobey his laws, because it is only those who are changed inwardly who are true Jews and acceptable to God. |
ROM 3:0 | My reply to the objection that there is no advantage in being a Jew or being circumcised is that there is much advantage, especially since God entrusted his promises to us. My reply to the objection that God has not kept his promise is that he certainly has, for his promises are always true. My reply to the objection that it is not right for God to punish us Jews is that it certainly is right for him to punish us, because if God did not judge us Jews he could not judge anyone. |
ROM 3:8 | My reply to a query about whether God will treat Jews more favorably than non-Jews is no, because the Scriptures make clear that all people are condemned by God for their sin. |
ROM 3:18 | In summary, no one is able to object to God’s condemnation; everyone has been declared guilty by God. |
ROM 3:20 | Now God erases the record of sins of everyone, Jew and non-Jew, who trusts in what Jesus Christ has done for them. God presented Christ as the one who would atone for sins by dying on the cross. |
ROM 3:26 | So we are prevented from boasting that God saves us because of our obeying the Mosaic laws. And God will also accept non-Jews on the same basis. And by agreeing that people are declared righteous by their trusting in Christ, we actually confirm, not nullify, the Mosaic laws. |
ROM 4:0 | We can draw conclusions from Abraham’s life about how God erases the record of our sins. Abraham could not boast about his accomplishing that because the Scriptures record that it was because he believed what God promised that God erased the record of his sins. God’s doing that was a gift, not a reward. |
ROM 4:8 | This happiness of knowing that God has erased the record of our sins is also for the non-Jews. Remember that it was before Abraham was circumcised, when he was still in effect a non-Jew, that God did that. He later received circumcision simply as a sign of God having erased the record of his sins because of his faith. The result was that he became a spiritual father of all who believe in God as he did, whether they are circumcised or not. |
ROM 4:12 | It was because Abraham trusted in God that God erased the record of his sins and promised him many blessings. So what God promised is guaranteed to all, both Jews and non-Jews, who trust in God as Abraham did. |
ROM 4:17 | It was because Abraham confidently believed God’s promise to give him many descendants, when there was no physical basis for his hoping that this would happen, that God erased the record of his sins. |
ROM 4:22 | The words about God erasing the record of Abraham’s sins were written also to assure us who believe in God. |
ROM 5:0 | Because God has erased the record of our sins, we have peace with him, we experience his acting kindly toward us, we rejoice because we expect to receive God’s glory, and we even rejoice in suffering because we know the results that it brings. |
ROM 5:5 | Because Christ died for us ungodly people, he will certainly save us from God’s eternal punishment, and so we boast of what he has done for us. |
ROM 5:11 | Although the sin of one man, Adam, led to all people dying and God declaring that they deserved to be punished, Christ’s righteous act of obedience when he died led to many people experiencing God’s kindness and being declared righteous and living eternally, and it will also result in their ruling with Christ. |
ROM 6:0 | If someone were to say that perhaps we should continue to sin in order that God may continue to act more kindly toward us, I would reply that we who ought to consider ourselves unresponsive to sinful desires should certainly not continue sinning. We must keep remembering that it is as though our former sinful nature has ceased to function, and it is as though we have become unresponsive to sinful desires, living in a new way. So do not let the desire to commit sin control you. Instead, present yourselves to God to do righteous things. |
ROM 6:14 | If someone should conclude that people can sin now because they are not obligated to obey the Mosaic laws, I would say, “Certainly not!” Instead, let your minds compel your bodies to act righteously. |
ROM 7:0 | You know that after people die they are freed from being required to obey any law. Similarly, God has freed us from being required to obey all the Jewish rituals and laws. |
ROM 7:6 | My reply to the objection that the laws of Moses are evil because they cause us to sin is that the laws are holy and good; what the laws do are simply to reveal that what we are doing is sinful. |
ROM 7:12 | My reply to the objection that God’s law, being good, causes people to become spiritually dead is no, it is our desire to commit sin that causes us to sin and become spiritually dead. |
ROM 7:13 | The laws came from God’s Spirit, but you and I are influenced by our sinful natures. We often do not do the things that we desire, and we do the things that we detest because of a desire to sin that permeates us and prevents us from doing good, unless Christ frees us from being controlled by these desires. |
ROM 8:0 | God will not in any way condemn those who are united to Christ Jesus, because God’s Spirit has freed us from the inevitability of sinning and from spiritual death. |
ROM 8:11 | We are compelled to live as the Spirit directs, not as our self-directed nature directs, because if we do the latter we will be eternally separated from God, but if we cease doing the latter we will live eternally. |
ROM 8:13 | Because we who allow the Spirit of God to guide us are God’s children, we will also inherit eternal blessings from God. |
ROM 8:17 | Since everything that God has created is eagerly awaiting the time when he will reveal who are his true children, I consider that what we suffer now is not worth paying attention to. |
ROM 8:25 | God’s Spirit helps us when our spirits feel weak; he prays for us and God understands what his Spirit intends. |
ROM 8:27 | God works out all things in a way that produces good spiritual benefits for us who love him. He does this because, having known that we would be saved and thus we would have the character of his Son, he chose us and declared us righteous, and he will surely give us future splendor. |
ROM 8:30 | We must conclude from these things that no one can defeat us, and absolutely no one and nothing can separate us from Christ’s loving us and God’s loving us. |
ROM 9:0 | I tell you very sincerely that I grieve greatly about most of my fellow Israelites having rejected Christ. I would be willing to be separated from Christ if that would help them believe in him. |
ROM 9:5 | This does not prove that God has failed to do for Abraham what he promised, because, as Scripture illustrates, it is not all who are naturally descended from Jacob or Abraham whom God considers to be his children, but it is those who were born as a result of what God promised whom he considers his children. |
ROM 9:13 | As the Scriptures indicate, God’s choosing people depends not on their wishes or efforts. He helps whomever he wants to help, and he makes stubborn whomever he wants to make stubborn. We cannot conclude that God is unjust in choosing the ones he wants to choose. |
ROM 9:18 | My reply to anyone’s objection to this doctrine is that God has a right to carry out his purposes; he tolerated the people who caused him to be angry, in order that he might disclose how gloriously he acts toward those on whom he intends to have mercy. |
ROM 9:29 | The non-Jews found the way by which God could declare them righteous. The Jews did not succeed in fulfilling what the Mosaic laws require. Instead, they tried to find a way to be declared righteous by doing things in order that God would accept them. |
ROM 10:0 | My deep desire and earnest prayer is that God will save the Jews, who do not understand how to seek him correctly. |
ROM 10:4 | The message of Scripture is that those who confess publicly that Jesus is their Lord and who believe inwardly that God brought Jesus back to life will be saved, because God accepts people only because of their faith, Jews and non-Jews alike. |
ROM 10:13 | There may be those who object by saying, “If God does not send someone to preach to the Jews, they cannot ask Christ to save them.” My reply to them is that God has already sent people to preach about Christ to them, but most of the Jews have not accepted the gospel. However, some Jews do believe in Christ, and many other people are indeed hearing the message. |
ROM 10:17 | In reply to a question of whether the Jews have heard or understood about Christ, I would say that, as is supported by the Scriptures, they have heard it and should have understood it, because even non-Jews, who were not searching for God, understood it. |
ROM 11:0 | God has certainly not rejected all Jews. I am evidence of that. Just like in the past, there is also at the present time a small group of us Jews who have become believers. |
ROM 11:6 | The Scriptures confirm that the people of Israel as a whole did not find the way of being declared righteous, although those whom God had chosen did find it. |
ROM 11:10 | My reply to a question as to whether the result of the Jews’ unbelief is a permanent falling away from God is, “No! God is saving many non-Jews to make many Jews envious and seek to be saved.” |
ROM 11:12 | I highly esteem the work that God has called me to do as an apostle among you non-Jews. I hope that I will make my fellow Jews jealous, and as a result, some of them will be saved. |
ROM 11:16 | You non-Jews who trust in Jesus must not despise the Jews whom God has rejected. You must not become proud, but instead beware. God will not spare you if you fall away from him, and he will certainly act kindly toward the Jews if they trust in Christ. |
ROM 11:24 | I want you to know that all the people of Israel will some day be saved, as the Scriptures say will happen. God still loves them because of their ancestors. It is his purpose to act mercifully towards them as well as toward all non-Jews. |
ROM 11:32 | I marvel at how great God’s wisdom and knowledge are, and his decisions and actions toward us! |
ROM 12:0 | I appeal to you that you present yourselves to God by making yourselves like living sacrifices, which is the appropriate way to serve him. Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you act, but instead let God change your way of thinking. |
ROM 12:2 | Do not think about yourselves more highly than you should. Instead, think about yourselves sensibly, in a way that corresponds to the abilities that God has given to you because you trust in Christ. May we do diligently and cheerfully what God has given us the ability to do. |
ROM 12:8 | In the various ways in which you act toward people, love them sincerely. |
ROM 12:18 | Instead of avenging yourselves, allow God to avenge you; and instead of being overcome by something evil done to you, overcome evil deeds by doing good to those who do evil to you, because this is what the Scriptures command. |
ROM 13:0 | Be subject to civil authorities, because those who oppose them oppose what God has established and will bring punishment on themselves. Do what is good and then they will commend you. Give to all the authorities what you are obligated to give to them. |
ROM 13:7 | Do not leave any debt unpaid. Your only continual obligation is to love one another, because doing so fulfills all that God’s law requires. |
ROM 13:10 | Because it is time for us to be fully alert and active, we must quit doing wicked deeds. We must do those things that will help us resist that which is evil, we must live properly, and we must be like Christ. |
ROM 14:0 | Accept those who are not sure whether they are permitted to do certain things. Anyone who thinks that it is all right to eat all kinds of food must not despise those who do not think that, and those who do not think that it is all right to eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, because God has accepted them. |
ROM 14:4 | Each person should be fully convinced about observing special days, thinking and deciding for himself and not for others. We should try to please God by everything we do. |
ROM 14:9 | You should neither condemn nor despise your fellow believers who believe differently about religious regulations than you do, because it is God who will say whether he approves of what we have done. |
ROM 14:12 | Instead of condemning each other, decide not to do anything that might lead your fellow believer to sin by following your example and which would then cause others to speak evil of you. |
ROM 14:18 | Try to do what will help fellow believers to be at peace with each other and to grow spiritually. Do not destroy what God has done in others’ lives as a result of your eating certain things. |
ROM 15:0 | We should not be irritated by the practices of those who are uncertain whether God will condemn them for doing certain things that the Mosaic laws forbid. Instead, we should do things that please our fellow Christians, because Christ has set us an example. |
ROM 15:4 | May God enable you all to live harmoniously with each other. |
ROM 15:6 | Accept each other as Christ has accepted you, remembering that what Christ has done was both to help the Jews and to cause non-Jews to praise God. |
ROM 15:12 | May God make you completely joyful and peaceful in order that you may confidently expect him to do what he has promised. |
ROM 15:13 | I have written frankly to you in this letter because of what God has kindly commissioned me to do among non-Jews. |
ROM 15:16 | I am happy about my work for God that I have now completed in this region by proclaiming the gospel in places where people have not heard about Christ. |
ROM 15:21 | Because of this work, I have often been hindered from visiting you, but I hope to see you as I journey through your area and I hope that you will give me what I need for my next journey. But now I am about to go to Jerusalem to take funds to God’s people there. So later I will visit you in Rome, and I know that Christ will bless us there. |
ROM 15:29 | I urge you to pray fervently that God will protect me from the unbelieving Jews in Judea and that God’s people there will accept the money that I take to them, and also that I may be refreshed by visiting you. May God be with you all. |
ROM 16:0 | I am introducing and commending Phoebe to you, and I ask that you receive her as a fellow believer and that you give her whatever she needs. |
ROM 16:2 | I send my greetings to many individuals among the believers there. All the congregations in this area also send their greetings to you. |
ROM 16:16 | Note those who are causing quarrels among you and those who cause people to turn away from God. Avoid them, because they only want to satisfy their own desires and deceive those who do not suspect their motives. If you avoid such people, God will soon crush Satan under your feet. |
ROM 16:20 | Several of those who are with me send their greetings. |
ROM 16:23-24 | We should forever praise the One who alone is God, who alone is truly wise. |
CO1 1:0 | 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 |
CO1 1:0 | As your apostle, I greet you Corinthian believers, and I desire that God bless you. |

CO1 1:9 | Stop dividing into groups in your congregations on the basis of which Christian leader you favor. |
CO1 1:17 | The message about Christ dying on the cross is the means of saving us who believe it. |
CO1 1:19 | Some people think that the message about Christ is foolish, but to us whom God has chosen, it shows God’s power. |
CO1 1:25 | God chose mostly despised, not important, people to belong to Christ; so you should boast only about him. |
CO1 2:0 | God showed that my message was true by the powerful things that he did, not because I spoke in a way that would make people think highly of me. |
CO1 2:5 | Unbelievers do not consider that my message is wise, because I speak what God’s Spirit reveals to me. |
CO1 3:0 | I was unable to teach you difficult concepts, because you were controlled by your self-directed nature, as evidenced by your quarreling about which leader you should be loyal to. |
CO1 3:4 | I preached the gospel to you first, and Apollos followed, but we are both serving God equally. |
CO1 3:9 | Each one who teaches believers must examine what he is teaching them because God will reward him only if his teaching is valuable and long-lasting. |

CO1 4:13 | Imitate the way in which I serve Christ. |
CO1 4:17 | I hope you will change your thinking, so I do not have to punish you when I come there. |

CO1 5:5 | Make sure that no one in your congregation is acting immorally or maliciously or wickedly. |
CO1 5:8 | Expel wicked people from your congregation. |
CO1 6:0 | It is disgusting that you prosecute fellow believers and let judges who are not believers decide your cases. |
CO1 6:6 | God has freed you from your former sinful behavior, so remember that he will exclude from his kingdom those who engage in all kinds of sinful behavior. |
CO1 6:11 | Because the Lord wants us to use our bodies in ways that please him, we must avoid all sexually immoral acts. |
CO1 7:0 | Married people should not deprive their spouses of sexual relations, except under special conditions. |
CO1 7:7 | It is all right to get married, but it is wrong to get divorced. However, you should not force an unbelieving spouse to keep living with you. |
CO1 7:16 | In general, each person should remain in the status that he had before he became a believer. |
CO1 7:24 | It is not sinful to get married, but married people will have a lot of problems. |
CO1 7:28 | We believers should not devote our time to the affairs of this life. |
CO1 7:31 | It is better to remain unmarried because married people are more concerned about pleasing their spouses than about how to please the Lord. |
CO1 7:35 | It is better for a man to decide that his daughter should remain unmarried than that she should get married, but either decision is all right. |
CO1 7:38 | Women whose husbands have died are free to get remarried, but only to believers. However, they will probably be happier if they do not marry again. |

CO1 8:6 | Do not eat meat offered to idols if that would encourage other believers to eat that food contrary to their conscience. |
CO1 9:0 | As your apostle I am free to do anything that God allows me to do. |
CO1 9:2 | Barnabas and I have the same right to receive financial support that the other apostles have. |
CO1 9:7 | God’s servants have always had the right to receive financial help from others, but we have not insisted on that right because we want to preach the gospel without charge. |
CO1 9:18 | I have adopted the code of conduct of whatever group I have been among, in order to bring more people to Christ. |
CO1 10:0 | Our Jewish ancestors all experienced God’s power, but almost all of them died in the desert because they sinned against him. |

CO1 10:13 | God will punish us if we participate in demon worship by eating food sacrificed to demons when we eat the Lord’s Supper. |

CO1 11:26 | God punishes those who eat the Lord’s Supper in a way that does not express the unity of his people. |
CO1 12:0 | It is only God’s Spirit who enables people to say that Jesus is Lord. |
CO1 12:3 | God’s Spirit gives believers special abilities as he desires. |
CO1 12:11 | A congregation needs all the abilities that God’s Spirit gives to its members, but you should especially desire the ones that help others the most. |

CO2 1:0 | Paul and Timothy greet the Christians who are in Corinth. |
CO2 1:2 | We thank God that he encourages us in all our troubles so that we are able to encourage you when you suffer. We suffered so much in Asia province that we were sure that we were going to die, but we learned to trust in God. He saved us from death and he will continue to save us from death. |
CO2 1:11 | You can trust what I tell you. I did not visit you, because I wanted to give you the opportunity to obey the instructions that I wrote to you. Now that you have punished enough the man who caused those problems, I urge you to forgive him and to encourage him. |
CO2 2:11 | I did not find Titus in Troas, so I went on to Macedonia province. Everywhere we go, God causes people to know Christ through our teaching. We do not teach in order to get money; we teach with sincere motives. |

CO2 4:15 | As our bodies get weaker, God continually makes our inner lives stronger. He will reward us for all that we have suffered. |
CO2 5:0 | God will give all of us new heavenly bodies, and he will reward us according to what we did while we were living in our earthly bodies. |
CO2 5:10 | Christ has shown me how much he loves people. That is why I teach his message with all the strength that I have. Therefore, I plead with you to believe that God will forgive you because of what Christ did for you. |
CO2 6:2 | In spite of much suffering, we have lived as servants of God should live. |
CO2 6:10 | I ask you to accept us and love us as we love you. |
CO2 6:13 | Do not get involved with people who do not honor God. |
CO2 7:1 | I love you all and I have great confidence in you. |
CO2 7:4 | Titus told me that my letter caused you to repent, and so now I am very happy. |
CO2 8:0 | The believers in Macedonia have already collected the money that they are going to send to the believers in Jerusalem. You should also finish collecting the money that you are preparing to send, and have it ready to send to Jerusalem soon. |
CO2 8:15 | I am sending Titus to you, along with two other believers, to help you get your gift ready. They are all well respected and trustworthy men, so treat them well. It will be good if you have your gift ready to send to Judea province by the time I arrive in Corinth. |
CO2 9:0 | You and I will be ashamed if your gift is not ready when I arrive. |
CO2 9:5 | If you give generously and willingly, God will always continue to bless you so that you will have enough to continue giving generously, and your generosity will cause many other people to praise and honor God. |
CO2 10:0 | I Paul say to you, “Do not listen to those who say that I am afraid to rebuke you when I am with you and that I behave like people do who are not believers.” |
CO2 10:6 | Those who teach what is false must come to realize that I also belong to Christ and that God has given me authority over you. I worry that they will deceive you and that you will stop being faithful to Christ alone. |
CO2 11:6 | You are mistaken if you think that I do not love you because I refused to accept money from you for my teaching. I will go on doing that to prevent those false apostles among you from boasting that they work just as I do. |
CO2 11:15 | You seem to listen to those who boast, so I too will boast. I will boast about being a Jew (as those others do), and I will boast about having suffered greatly for Christ, and about an extraordinary vision that God gave me. Although God caused me to suffer an affliction, he promised that he would help me and strengthen me. |
CO2 12:10 | When I was with you, I did things that showed you that I am truly Christ’s representative. But I still will not take pay from you when I come to visit you again. And those people are wrong who say that I tricked you by sending Titus to get money for myself from you. |
CO2 12:18 | I am worried that when I visit you I will find that many of you are still sinning. I pray that God will help you turn from your sinful behavior, so that I will not have to discipline you when I come. |
CO2 13:10 | I finish my letter with some advice. All of us here send you our greetings, and I pray that God will bless you. |
GAL 1:0 | Galatians 1:1-5 |
GAL 1:0 | I, Paul, as God’s chosen apostle, am sending this letter to the churches in Galatia and asking God’s blessings on you. |
GAL 1:5 | I am disappointed that you are believing a message that is not the good news about Christ, and I ask God to eternally punish those who are teaching such a message. |
GAL 1:10 | It was Jesus Christ, not any human, who revealed the message that I proclaim. |
GAL 1:12 | For 17 years after God showed his Son to me, I had no contact with the apostles. |
GAL 2:0 | Finally, when I returned to Jerusalem and told Peter, James, and John what I always proclaim, they agreed that Barnabas and I were preaching the same message and serving the Lord just like they were. |
GAL 2:10 | Later I rebuked Peter for not behaving according to the gospel, in that he was encouraging non-Jews to adopt Jewish laws and rituals. |
GAL 3:0 | Because you trusted in Christ, not because you obeyed the laws God gave Moses, you received the Holy Spirit and now experience his working among you. |
GAL 3:5 | It is those Jews and non-Jews who trust Christ who are Abraham’s spiritual descendants, because those who seek to be justified by obeying the laws that God gave Moses are condemned by God. |
GAL 3:12 | Christ was condemned instead of us, so that God might bless the non-Jews just as he blessed Abraham, and so that we might receive the Spirit. |
GAL 3:14 | By giving his laws to the Jews, God has not canceled what he promised to Abraham much earlier concerning his descendant, Christ. Just like God gave his blessings to Abraham just because he promised to do so, he freely gives his blessings to us. |
GAL 3:18 | God gave his laws to supervise us sinful Jews until Christ, Abraham’s promised descendant, would come. |
GAL 3:25 | Because of our relationship with Christ, we are Abraham’s spiritual descendants, and God’s heirs, no longer like slaves. |
GAL 4:0 | Each of you is no longer like a slave, but a child of God and an heir of what he has promised. |
GAL 4:7 | I plead with you to do as I did when I was with you, and not obey all the Jewish rules and rituals. |
GAL 4:20 | Because of our relationship with Christ, we are not subject to Mosaic law; being Abraham’s spiritual descendants, we are free from such bondage. |
GAL 5:0 | Reject the false teaching that you must be circumcised, and do not become enslaved to rules and rituals again, otherwise Christ will not benefit you at all. |
GAL 5:6 | Although someone has confused you, I am sure that you will not accept his false teaching, and that God will punish him. |
GAL 5:12 | Although you are free from having to obey Jewish rules, instead of doing what your self-directed nature desires, love and serve each other. |
GAL 5:15 | Let God’s Spirit direct you, and then you will not do what your self-directed nature desires. |
GAL 5:18 | Those who think evil thoughts and do evil things will not receive the blessings of God’s rule, but God’s Spirit produces many good qualities in our lives. |
GAL 6:0 | Gently correct anyone among you who is sinning, and help each other without thinking you are better than others. |
GAL 6:6 | We should not tire of doing good, but instead, we should do good to everyone, especially to believers. |
GAL 6:10 | Some people want you to be circumcised only so that they will not be persecuted for proclaiming what Christ accomplished for us on the cross, but that is the only thing that I will boast about. |
GAL 6:16 | I have suffered enough for declaring the truth about Jesus, so do not trouble me again. |
GAL 6:17 | I pray that God may act kindly within you. |
EPH 1:0 | Ephesians 1:1-2 |
EPH 1:0 | I am writing this to you people of God in Ephesus, asking that God will bless you. |
EPH 1:2 | We should praise God for having chosen and redeemed us, having revealed his plan to unite all things under Christ, and causing Christ to rule over all his people. |
EPH 1:14 | I thank God for your faith, and pray that you will understand more about how powerfully he works on our behalf, just like he did when he caused Christ to become alive again and made him ruler over everything. |
EPH 2:0 | Formerly we were all spiritually dead and were certain to be punished by God, but he acted very kindly toward us and saved us freely as a result of our faith in Christ. |
EPH 2:10 | God brought you Gentiles into his family so that now you and Jewish believers both share the same blessings and form one group; you now have peace with each other and can come to God in prayer with the help of the Holy Spirit. |
EPH 3:0 | I am in prison because God appointed me to tell non-Jews that Christ is the source of great spiritual blessings for them. |
EPH 3:13 | I pray that God’s Spirit will empower you, that you may experience how much Christ loves you, and that God may make you all that he intends for you to be. |
EPH 4:0 | Conduct your lives in a way that shows that you are God’s people; do all that you can to keep all the believers united; and remember that Christ has given various abilities to each of his people, in order that you all may be united and grow spiritually and become like Christ. |
EPH 4:16 | You should conduct yourselves in a way that matches your new life; so stop doing the harmful things that unbelievers do, and do good things to one another. |
EPH 5:0 | Imitate God, do everything in a way that shows love, and do not let anyone persuade you to live immorally, because God will punish those who disobey him. |
EPH 5:6 | Live righteously, and expose the evil deeds that evil people do, because when you do that, those people who do those evil things will come to know the truth. |
EPH 5:21 | Instructions about how wives and husbands, children and parents, and slaves and masters should behave toward each other. |
EPH 6:9 | As you always rely on the Lord to strengthen you, make use of every spiritual resource that God provides to resist the devil and all his powerful evil spirits. |
EPH 6:20 | I am sending Tychicus to tell you what is happening here and to encourage you. I pray that God will give you peace and love for each other, and that he will continue to act kindly toward you all. |
PHP 1:0 | Philippians 1:1-2 |
PHP 1:0 | I, Paul, write this letter to all of you who are God’s people at Philippi. May God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord bless you. |
PHP 1:2 | I thank God and rejoice because you have been working together with me to make known the good message from when you first believed until now. |
PHP 1:8 | I pray that God will enable you to know how to love one another more and more appropriately and to completely understand how you should believe and act. |
PHP 1:11 | I want you to realize that as a result of my imprisonment many more people have heard the good message about Christ. |
PHP 1:14 | Even though some believers proclaim the message about Christ because they are antagonistic toward me, at least they are proclaiming Christ, and so I rejoice. |
PHP 1:18 | I will continue to rejoice because I know that I will remain completely victorious spiritually. I earnestly expect to boldly honor Christ whether I live or die. |
PHP 1:26 | Conduct yourselves just like you learned in the message about Christ, unitedly and fearlessly resisting those who oppose you and the gospel, since God is helping you in all your struggles. |
PHP 2:0 | Since Christ loves and encourages us and the Holy Spirit fellowships with us, make me completely happy by agreeing with one another, loving one another, and humbly serving one another. |
PHP 2:4 | You should think just like Christ Jesus thought. He willingly gave up his divine privileges and humbled himself, willingly obeying God although it meant disgracefully dying on a cross. As a result, God exalted him to the highest position, to be acknowledged by the entire universe as the supreme Lord. |
PHP 2:11 | Since you have always obeyed God, continue to try to do those things which are appropriate for people whom God has saved, and he will enable you to do so. |
PHP 2:13 | Always obey God and your leaders, and never complain about them or argue with them, in order that you may be perfect children of God, witnessing by how you live and what you say to the ungodly people among whom you live. |
PHP 2:16 | Because you and I dedicate ourselves together to do God’s will, even if I am to be executed, I will rejoice, and you should also rejoice. |
PHP 2:18 | I confidently expect that the Lord Jesus will enable me to send Timothy to you soon. He genuinely cares for your welfare, not his own interests. I am confident that the Lord will enable me also to come soon. |
PHP 2:24 | Since Epaphroditus longs to see you and is distressed, I am sending him back to you. So welcome him very joyfully. Since he nearly died while serving me on your behalf, honor him and all people like him. |
PHP 3:0 | As for the other matters, continue to rejoice and know that it is not tiresome for me and it is safe for you to mention them again. |
PHP 3:1 | Beware of those unholy people who will harm you spiritually by insisting that you must be circumcised in order to become God’s people. |
PHP 3:4 | Since I was circumcised properly and have a purely Hebrew ancestry, and since I kept the Jewish laws blamelessly, I could rely upon what I have done and who I am better than anyone else could, if it were beneficial for my salvation. |
PHP 3:6 | I now consider all these advantages that I once supposed would help me to be worthless, and I consider everything else as well to be worthless, because I want to know Christ, to be united with him, and to be made righteous through trusting in Christ alone. |
PHP 3:11 | Since you desire to be perfected and since you have my example of not considering that I am already perfect, but of constantly striving to become more and more like Christ, follow my example. |
PHP 3:16 | Imitate me and those who live as I do. Remember that there are many people who are bad examples, as shown by their lustful behavior, wanting to do what their bodies desire. But as for us, Christ will transform our weak bodies to be like his glorious heavenly body. |
PHP 4:0 | On the basis of all that I have told you, continue to believe firmly in the Lord Jesus Christ according to what I have just taught you, and act accordingly. |
PHP 4:1 | I urge Euodia and Syntyche to be reconciled with each other; help them in this since they have both proclaimed the good news faithfully together with me and my other fellow workers. |
PHP 4:3 | The Lord is coming soon. Always rejoice, be gentle to everyone. Do not worry about anything, but pray to God instead. As a result, God will grant you profound peace. |
PHP 4:7 | Continually think about everything that is good and praiseworthy. Continually practice whatever you have learned from me. As a result, God will be with you and give you inner peace. |
PHP 4:9 | I rejoice greatly because you have once again demonstrated your concern for me by giving to meet my needs, though it is true that Christ enables me to be content in every situation. |
PHP 4:14 | You Philippians know that in the early days of preaching the good news in your region you were the only congregation that sent me money. I do not say this because I desire your gifts, but I desire that God would abundantly bless you for aiding me. |
PHP 4:17 | I have received your very generous gift; God is very pleased with this gift, and he will abundantly supply your every need also. Let us praise him forever. |
PHP 4:20 | All of God’s people here, including those who serve God with me and those who work at the emperor’s palace, join me in greeting each one of God’s people there. |
PHP 4:22 | May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you. |
COL 1:0 | Colossians 1:1-2 |
COL 1:0 | I, Paul, am sending this letter to you, who are God’s people in Colossae. We pray that God will bless you. |

COL 4:6 | Tychicus will tell you all that has been happening to me. |
COL 4:9 | My fellow workers here greet you. |
COL 4:14 | Obey these instructions. |
COL 4:17 | I, Paul, am penning this myself in order that you may know that this letter was sent by me. Remember to pray about the fact that I am in prison. |
TH1 1:0 | 1 Thessalonians 1:1 |
TH1 1:0 | I, Paul, greet you believers who are in Thessalonica |
TH1 1:1 | We always thank God for you all. We continually remember the way you live as believers and we know that God chose you. The Holy Spirit enabled us to powerfully tell you the good message, and although people persecuted you greatly, you were joyful. As a result, you inspired all the believers who are in Macedonia and Achaia to trust in God firmly, as you do. |
TH1 2:0 | You and God know that it is true that we behaved in a very virtuous, upright, and irreproachable manner toward you. You know also that we continually exhorted, encouraged, and urged that you behave in the way that God’s people should. |
TH1 2:12 | We continually thank God also that you accepted as true a message that does not originate from human beings. Instead, you accepted as true the message that originates from God, and the result was that people caused you to suffer as Christ did. |
TH1 2:16 | It is because of you that we are pleased and joyful. So when people forced Silas, Timothy and me to be separated from you for a short time, we strongly desired to be with you. |
TH1 3:0 | When I could no longer endure worrying about you, I sent Timothy to you in order to find out whether or not you were still trusting in God. |
TH1 3:5 | Now Timothy has just returned and has told us the good news that you still trust in Christ. As a result, we have been cheered up, and we cannot thank God adequately for what he has done for you. Very frequently we ask God that we will be able to visit you and help you to trust him more strongly. |
TH1 3:10 | We pray that God will help us to return to you and that the Lord Jesus will help you to love each other and other people more and more, just like we love you more and more. |
TH1 4:0 | Just like we told you previously, we strongly urge you to increasingly live in a way that will please God. |
TH1 4:1-2 | God wants you, by your behaving in a sexually pure way, to show that you completely belong to him. |
TH1 4:8 | We urge you to increasingly love each other, to strive to work at your own occupations, and not meddle in others’ affairs. |
TH1 4:12 | God will cause to live again those believers who died and will bring them to the sky with Jesus. Encourage each other by telling this message. |
TH1 5:0 | We believers should be prepared for the time when the Lord Jesus returns and not be as unbelievers who will be unprepared. We must not be like them. On the contrary, we must be vigilant and self-controlled. |
TH1 5:8 | God has destined us believers to be saved from future punishment and to be able to live together with our Lord Jesus after he returns. Since this is true, encourage each other. |
TH1 5:11 | Recognize as leaders those people who care for and instruct you; highly esteem and love them. Live peacefully with each other. |
TH1 5:13 | Warn believers who will not work, and encourage and help those who need it. Be patient with all people. Do good things for all of them, including those who do evil things to you. |
TH1 5:15 | Always rejoice, pray, and thank God. |
TH1 5:18 | Evaluate all messages that people claim that the Holy Spirit gave them. Accept authentic messages and obey them. |
TH1 5:22 | We pray that God will cause you to be distinct people who behave right in every way, and I am sure that he will do this. |
TH1 5:24 | Pray for us. Affectionately greet all your fellow believers, and make certain that someone reads this letter aloud to all of them. May the Lord bless you. |
TH2 1:0 | 2 Thessalonians 1:1-2 |
TH2 1:0 | We, Paul, Silas, and Timothy, are sending this letter to the congregation of God’s people in Thessalonica. We pray that God will continue to bless you with his kindness and inner peace. |
TH2 1:2 | We thank God very frequently that you are trusting in the Lord Jesus more and more. |
TH2 1:4 | God will judge all people justly. Specifically, he will publicly declare that you are worthy to enter that place where he will rule his people forever. |
TH2 1:10 | We are praying very frequently for you that God will consider you worthy to receive that to which he summoned you. |
TH2 2:0 | Do not quickly get worried and alarmed by any message that the Day of the Lord has already come. |
TH2 2:3 | The Lord will come only after that time when the man who will sin very greatly will appear. |
TH2 2:5 | This man will be revealed by God when he who is now preventing him from being revealed will have been removed by God. |
TH2 2:8 | When this man is present, he will completely deceive those who will perish. |
TH2 2:12 | God chose you in order that you should be saved and share in Christ’s glory. |
TH2 2:14 | Continue believing the teaching that we gave to you. |
TH2 2:15 | We pray that our Lord Jesus Christ himself will encourage you and cause you to continue doing and speaking what is good. |
TH2 3:0 | Pray that more and more people will believe the message about our Lord Jesus. |
TH2 3:2 | Our Lord Jesus will cause you to continue to be steadfast and he will protect you from the evil one. |
TH2 3:5 | We command you to disassociate yourselves from every fellow believer who refuses to work. |
TH2 3:11 | We command those fellow believers who are not working to support themselves by settling down and working. |
TH2 3:12 | You others, do not stop doing what is right because you are discouraged. |
TH2 3:13 | Publicly identify any fellow believer who does not obey what we have written in this letter and do not associate with him. |
TH2 3:15 | I pray that our Lord Jesus himself will give peace to you always and in every situation. |
TH2 3:16 | In closing, I pray that our Lord Jesus will continue to bless you all. I, Paul, am greeting you and I am writing this myself in order that you may know that it is I who have sent this letter. |
TI1 1:0 | 1 Timothy 1:1-2 |
TI1 1:0 | I, Paul, write to you, Timothy. May you be blessed by God and Christ Jesus with their kindness and mercy. |
TI1 1:2 | Defend and promote the true Christian doctrine. Teach it and live by it. Also I instruct you how to strengthen the congregation, which upholds the truth. |
TI1 2:0 | I instruct you how people who belong to God’s family and who hold fast to the truth should conduct themselves. |
TI1 4:0 | Be sure that you conduct yourself well and that you teach the true doctrine. |
TI1 5:0 | I instruct you how to act toward various groups in the church. |
TI1 6:0 | Live in a way that agrees with Christian doctrine, and complete what I have commanded. |
TI2 1:0 | 2 Timothy 1:1-2 |
TI2 1:0 | This letter is from me, Paul, to you, Timothy. |
TI2 1:2 | I thank God that you sincerely believe in Christ Jesus. |
TI2 1:5 | So I remind you to do fervently what God has enabled and assigned you to do. |
TI2 1:7 | Never be ashamed either of the message or of me, but be willing to endure with me whatever we suffer because we tell the good news. |
TI2 1:14 | Many people have turned away from me, but Onesiphorus often cheered me up and was not ashamed of me. |
TI2 2:0 | Let God empower you; and entrust the message to loyal/trustworthy people. |
TI2 2:2 | Endure with me what we suffer for Christ Jesus. |
TI2 2:13 | Remind teachers about the things that I have told you and command them not to quarrel; and be sure that you yourself are the kind of person that God will approve of. |
TI2 2:15 | Have nothing to do with godless and foolish talk. |
TI2 2:19 | Avoid the bad things that some young people desire to do. Do good instead. |
TI2 2:22 | Do not discuss foolish questions but gently instruct those who oppose the true message. |
TI2 3:0 | Realize that evil people will cause the last days to be difficult. Avoid such people. |
TI2 3:9 | Continue to believe what you have learned and been assured of. |
TI2 4:0 | I solemnly command you to preach the true message and do everything that you ought to do. |
TI2 4:8 | Do your best to come to me soon. |
TI2 4:15 | The Lord will rescue me from everything that is evil and bring me safely to heaven. |
TI2 4:18 | Greet my friends there. Your friends here greet you. May the Lord bless you. |
TIT 1:0 | Titus 1:1-4 |
TIT 1:0 | I, Paul, have been appointed by God as his servant and as an apostle of Jesus Christ in order that I might lead God’s people to know, believe, and practice the true teachings. I write this letter to you, Titus. May God continue to bless you. |
TIT 1:4 | I want you to teach the believers and to appoint elders. |
TIT 1:5 | Appoint as elders men whom no one can justly criticize. |
TIT 1:9 | Since there are many deceivers teaching what is false, who do not even know God themselves and are unable to do any good thing, rigorously convince those believers who follow false teachings that they are wrong in order that they will firmly believe in the correct teachings. |
TIT 2:0 | Teach and urge the believers to behave in a manner that is consistent with the correct teachings in order that people will perceive that the teachings about God our Savior are very good. |
TIT 2:10 | God very kindly sent Jesus Christ to earth in order that God might save all people and God graciously trains us to behave in a godly manner. |
TIT 2:14 | With full authority, teach these things, urge the believers to do them, and correct those believers who do not follow them. |
TIT 3:0 | Remind the believers to act appropriately toward authorities and kindly toward everyone. |
TIT 3:2 | God acted kindly toward us and mercifully saved us, even though formerly we were behaving sinfully. |
TIT 3:7 | I want you to confidently teach this trustworthy message to the believers in order that they will be constantly concerned with doing what is good for others. |
TIT 3:8 | Have nothing to do with foolish disputes about genealogies and about the Jewish law; and do not allow divisive people who have turned away from the true teachings to influence the believers. |
TIT 3:11 | Make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis. Help Zenas and Apollos on their journey. All the believers should likewise learn to devote themselves to doing good deeds for people who especially need help. |
TIT 3:14 | Everyone who is with me greets you and the other true believers there. May our Lord Jesus Christ continue to act kindly toward all of you. |
PHM 1:0 | Philemon 1-3 |
PHM 1:0 | I, Paul, am writing this letter to you, Philemon, and to those with you. May God bless you(pl). |
PHM 1:3 | I thank God and rejoice greatly because you have shown that you love God’s people. |
PHM 1:7 | Because I know that you love God’s people, I request, rather than command you, to do what you ought to do for my spiritual son Onesimus. |
PHM 1:11 | I am sending Onesimus back to you. He is as dear to me as my own self, and he will now be even dearer to you than he is to me. |
PHM 1:16 | If you consider me to be your partner, receive Onesimus as you would receive me. I guarantee to repay you whatever Onesimus owes you. |
PHM 1:19 | Please encourage me in this matter as you encourage other believers in Christ. |
PHM 1:20 | I have written this letter to you confident of your compliance with my request. |
PHM 1:21 | Also, keep a guest room ready for me. |
PHM 1:22 | My other fellow workers greet you(sg). May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you(pl) spiritually. |
HEB 1:0 | Hebrews 1:1-3 |
HEB 1:0 | God formerly communicated with us through the prophets, but now he has communicated with us through his son, who is just like God. |
HEB 1:3 | God’s son is greater than the angels. |
HEB 2:0 | We will not escape God’s punishment if we ignore such a great message of salvation. |
HEB 2:4 | God has determined that Christ, not angels or people, will rule everything. |
HEB 2:9 | Jesus, the creator of everything, is the one who died for us, makes us holy, and proclaims us to be his brothers and sisters. |
HEB 2:13 | It is Jesus, not angels, who became a human to help us as our Supreme Priest. |
HEB 3:0 | Our Supreme Priest, Jesus, deserves more honor than Moses does. |
HEB 3:6 | Do not stubbornly rebel against God as their Jewish ancestors did. |
HEB 3:11 | Beware that you do not stop trusting in Christ. |
HEB 3:15 | It was your ancestors, ones for whom God did great things, who rebelled against God. |
HEB 4:0 | The Israelites failed to enter the place where they would rest; we must be careful not to act like them. |
HEB 4:5 | The Scriptures support the claim that there is a time when God’s people will rest eternally. |
HEB 4:10 | We must be careful not to be insincere about trying to enter the place of eternal rest. |
HEB 4:13 | Let us come boldly to Christ, our Supreme Priest, to receive his gracious help. |
HEB 5:0 | As Christ suffered, he learned to be a compassionate Supreme Priest by obeying God. |
HEB 5:10 | You are not ready for more advanced spiritual truth. |
HEB 6:0 | If you believers later reject the message about Christ, God will reject you. |
HEB 6:8 | But God will not overlook all you have done for him. |
HEB 6:12 | We are confident that God will bless us as he promised; he made an oath to confirm that he would do that. |
HEB 7:0 | There are ways in which Melchizedek was like God’s Son. |
HEB 7:3 | Melchizedek was greater than Abraham. |
HEB 7:10 | The former Jewish priests were not adequate, so a new one like Melchizedek had to come. |
HEB 7:19 | Jesus lives eternally as a Supreme Priest to plead with God for us. |
HEB 7:25 | Jesus is the kind of Supreme Priest we need, because he was sinless. |
HEB 8:0 | The rituals that were performed by the Jewish high priests were only a model of what Jesus our high priest does in heaven. |
HEB 8:6 | The first covenant was not adequate, so God needed a new one. |
HEB 9:0 | A description of the man-made sanctuary that accompanied the first covenant. |
HEB 9:5 | Offerings that were made under the first covenant were not able to remove a sense of guilt for sin. |
HEB 9:10 | Christ redeemed us by offering his own blood as a sacrifice. |
HEB 9:14 | Christ has put the new covenant into effect with his own blood. |
HEB 9:22 | The Jewish priests kept offering the blood of animal sacrifices every year, but Christ sacrificed himself once to take away our guilt. |
HEB 10:0 | The blood of animals can never take away the guilt for sins. |
HEB 10:4 | Christ set us apart for God by offering his own body once as a sacrifice. |
HEB 10:10 | Scripture supports the claim that Christ made one sacrifice that will be adequate forever. |
HEB 10:18 | Let us come to God and let him make us pure and help us to keep believing his truth and do things that please him. |
HEB 10:25 | If we have known and then rejected the message about Christ, God will surely punish us. |
HEB 10:31 | Remember how you accepted persecution because of your faith in Christ, and do not be discouraged if you are persecuted now. |
HEB 11:0 | Because of our faith, we confidently expect to receive God’s promises. |
HEB 11:3 | Because of his faith, Abel offered a better sacrifice than his brother Cain did. |
HEB 11:4 | Because of their faith, God blessed Enoch, Noah, and Abraham. |
HEB 11:12 | All those people who trusted in God died without receiving what God promised. |
HEB 11:16 | It was because Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Moses, the Israelite people, and Rahab trusted God that he blessed them. |
HEB 11:31 | Some who trusted God gained great victories and others were tortured and killed. |
HEB 11:38 | Only when we are together with all these people who trusted God will we receive all God has promised. |
HEB 12:0 | Since we know so many people with faith like that, we must put aside anything, especially sin, which hinders us, and we must strive to achieve God’s will and concentrate on Jesus. |
HEB 12:2 | Do not become discouraged when you are suffering as you struggle against evil. |
HEB 12:6 | Since our sufferings are to discipline us, if we have not experienced God’s discipline we are not his true children. We should accept God’s discipline, because it is always to help us. |
HEB 12:11 | Renew yourselves spiritually; go forward in your Christian life; try to live peacefully with everyone; seek to be holy; guard against bitterness; do not be immoral; and do not refuse to listen to God. |
HEB 12:17 | You have not experienced the terrifying things your ancestors did; you have come to Christ and benefited from his blood flowing for you. |
HEB 12:24 | We should be in awe before God, who will punish us if we reject him. |
HEB 13:0 | Love one another, be hospitable, and help imprisoned and other mistreated believers. |
HEB 13:3 | Respect the marriage relationship, and avoid covetousness. |
HEB 13:6 | Remember how your former spiritual leaders lived and imitate their faith; since Christ never changes, do not be diverted to strange teachings. |
HEB 13:9 | We must stop practicing Jewish sacrifices and rituals, and go to Jesus to be saved, since we do not have a city like Jerusalem where we must offer sacrifices, but instead we wait for a future everlasting heavenly city. |
HEB 13:14 | Since Christ sacrificed himself for us, let our continual praise of God be our sacrifice. |
HEB 13:15 | Continually do good deeds and share with others, because this too will be a sacrifice pleasing to God. |
HEB 13:16 | Obey your spiritual leaders. |
HEB 13:17 | Pray for me that God will quickly remove the things that hinder my coming to you. |
HEB 13:19 | May God equip you with everything good that you need, and may Christ be praised forever. |
HEB 13:21 | Patiently consider what I have written in this short exhortation. |
HEB 13:22 | Since Timothy has been released from prison, he will accompany me when I go to see you. |
HEB 13:23 | Greet your spiritual leaders and all other believers; the believers who are from Italy send you their greetings. |
HEB 13:24 | May God act graciously to you all. |
JAM 1:0 | James 1:1 |
JAM 1:0 | I, James, am writing this letter to Jewish people who trust in the Lord Jesus who are scattered throughout the world. Greetings! |
JAM 1:1 | When you experience difficulties that test whether or not you will continue to trust God, rejoice greatly and keep on bravely enduring them in order that you may become all that God intends you to be. |
JAM 1:4 | If you want to have wisdom to know what to do when difficulties come, ask God to help you, and firmly trust him. |
JAM 1:8 | Believers who are poor and those who are rich should both value highly what God has done for them, rather than focusing on their material resources that will disappear. |
JAM 1:11 | God blesses those who bravely endure difficulties; he will reward them by causing them to live eternally. |
JAM 1:12 | If people are tempted to do something evil, they should not think that it is God who is tempting them. It is their own evil desires that are tempting them to do evil. |
JAM 1:15 | Stop thinking wrongly that God tempts you to do evil things, because God does only good things for us. |
JAM 1:18 | Every one of you should eagerly pay attention to God’s message and should not speak hastily or get angry easily. |
JAM 1:20 | So stop doing all kinds of evil things, and do what God commands in his message, instead of just listening to it. God approves of those who do what he wants them to do. |
JAM 1:25 | Those who show compassion on people in need and who do not think or act immorally are those who truly worship God and receive his approval. |
JAM 2:0 | Stop honoring some people more than others, because by doing that, you are disobeying God’s law that we should love one another. |
JAM 2:11 | Continually act mercifully toward others, because God will not act mercifully to those who do not act mercifully toward others. |
JAM 2:13 | Anyone who says that he trusts in Jesus Christ but does not act compassionately toward others is not truly trusting in Jesus. |
JAM 2:17 | But someone may claim that some people are saved because they trust in God and other people are saved because they do good things for others. In answer to that, the inadequacy of faith without good deeds is demonstrated by the example of demons. From the examples of Abraham and Rahab we can see that only by obeying God and doing good things for others can people prove that they truly trust in God. |
JAM 3:0 | Not many of you should become teachers, because God will judge teachers with greater severity than he will judge others. You should all strive to speak what is right, because what you say has a powerful effect on others, and it is often destructive and hypocritical. |
JAM 3:12 | If you are jealous of others and self-seeking, do not boast that you are wise. Instead, demonstrate that you are truly wise by doing good things and by acting peaceably and compassionately toward others. |
JAM 4:0 | You are fighting among yourselves because of your evil desires, and you are never getting what you want because you pray with wrong motives. |
JAM 4:3 | You are unfaithful to God and are behaving as evil people do, so you have become God’s enemies, but he wants to help you. He opposes the proud, but he helps those who are humble. |
JAM 4:6 | So submit yourselves to God and resist the devil. Stop doing wrong things and thinking wrong thoughts. Be sorry for having sinned. Humble yourselves before God, and he will honor you. |
JAM 4:10 | Stop saying evil things about one another and thus condemning each other. Only God has the right to condemn people. |
JAM 4:12 | You should not boast about what you will do in the future, because life is transitory. Instead, you should plan to do whatever God wants you to do, because boasting about what you want to do, rather than considering the will of God, is sinful. |
JAM 5:0 | The rich people who oppress you should weep because they will suffer much. God will punish them because they have unjustly caused others to suffer. |
JAM 5:6 | So wait patiently for the Lord Jesus Christ to return and to judge all people fairly. Do not complain about each other, lest Jesus judge you when he returns. From the examples of the prophets and Job, we know that God blesses and rewards those who patiently endure suffering. |
JAM 5:11 | Do not say, “If I am lying, may God punish me.” Instead, always tell the truth, so that God will not condemn you. |
JAM 5:12 | Whatever your circumstances are, pray, trusting in God, and he will certainly help you, both physically and spiritually. So confess your sins to each other and pray for each other, because God answers prayer. |
JAM 5:18 | If anyone turns away from God’s true message, you believers should urge him to once again obey God so that God will forgive his many sins. |
PE1 1:0 | 1 Peter 1:1-2 |
PE1 1:0 | I, Peter, am writing this letter to Jewish believers who have been scattered throughout five provinces in Asia Minor. I wish that God will bless them. |
PE1 1:2 | God has done great things for you. Although you are now enduring trials to test your faith, you are rejoicing about your salvation. That salvation is something that the prophets who lived long ago did not fully understand. |
PE1 1:12 | You must live holy and reverent lives and love each other, because Christ has bought you and given you a new life. |
PE1 2:0 | Do not act maliciously or be hypocrites. God is joining you together into a holy group in which his Spirit lives, to do things that are pleasing to him. |
PE1 2:10 | Avoid obeying your self-directed natures. Conduct your lives in a good way among unbelievers. |
PE1 2:12 | Submit yourselves to human authorities, and act as servants of God should. |
PE1 2:17 | You slaves must submit yourselves to your masters, even if they mistreat you. Imitate Christ in the way in which he suffered unjustly. |
PE1 3:0 | You women should submit yourselves to your husbands, even if they are not believers, and make your inner beings/hearts beautiful with qualities that will not fade away. |
PE1 3:6 | You men must live in an appropriate way with your wives, so that nothing will hinder your prayers. |
PE1 3:7 | Agree with each other, love each other, be humble, and bless those who do evil things to you instead of retaliating. |
PE1 3:12 | Do good things to others, even if you suffer for doing it, as Christ did. |
PE1 4:0 | Think as Christ did when he suffered, and conduct your lives as God wants you to, not doing the immoral things that you used to do. |
PE1 4:6 | Keep thinking sensibly. Love each other earnestly. Provide hospitality to others. Use your spiritual gifts well. Be kind to others with all the energy that you have. |
PE1 4:11 | Do not be surprised when you suffer for being Christians, and do not be ashamed when that happens. Instead, commit yourselves to God. |
PE1 5:0 | You elders must care for your congregations with enthusiasm, not being greedy for money or acting like bosses. Instead, be examples to them. |
PE1 5:7 | Resist the devil by always being alert and trusting in Christ’s message, remembering that believers everywhere are also suffering as you are. |
PE1 5:11 | I have written this short message to encourage you. The believers here, including Mark, greet you. May God give you inner peace. |
PE2 1:0 | 2 Peter 1:1-2 |
PE2 1:0 | I, Simon Peter, am writing this letter to you whom God has caused to believe in Christ just like we apostles believe in Christ. I pray that God will bless you greatly. |
PE2 1:2 | God has given us everything that we need to receive eternal life and to live godly lives. |
PE2 1:4 | Try your hardest to develop a stable Christian character. |
PE2 1:11 | I intend to keep reminding you very frequently about these matters. |
PE2 1:15 | You can be sure that these matters are true, because we apostles ourselves witnessed that our Lord Jesus Christ is supremely great, and also because what the prophets say about him is completely reliable. |
PE2 2:0 | There will be false teachers among you who will behave wickedly and who will entice you to behave just like they do. God will certainly destroy them. |
PE2 2:3 | It is certain that God knows how to rescue those who are godly, and that he knows how to punish those who are unrighteous at the right time. |
PE2 2:10 | Because those teachers of false doctrine will behave wickedly and will entice people to do the same things that they do, God will destroy them. |
PE2 2:16 | Because those teachers of false doctrine will entice people to behave wickedly, God has reserved darkest hell for them. |
PE2 3:0 | I am writing this letter to you in order to help you remember what the holy prophets said and what our Lord and Savior commanded. |
PE2 3:2 | Although certain people will ridicule the idea that the Lord Jesus Christ is going to come back, the reason why he has not yet come back to judge people is that God is being patient with people; but Jesus will certainly come back and judge people. |
PE2 3:10 | You certainly ought to behave in a godly manner, because God will destroy everything, and because only those people who are righteous will live in the new heavens and on the new earth. |
PE2 3:13 | Do all you can to conduct your lives in a godly manner. Guard against those who would entice you to doubt what you now firmly believe. |
PE2 3:18 | I pray that Jesus Christ will always be honored. |
JN1 1:0 | 1 John 1:1-4 |
JN1 1:0 | We apostles proclaim to you the message about the One who has lived eternally, so that you may be joined together with us and we may be completely happy. |
JN1 1:4 | We should continue to be morally pure, because God is morally pure, and he is able to forgive our sins on the basis that Jesus died to acquit us of the guilt of all our sins. |
JN1 2:2 | We should conduct our lives as Christ did, obeying what God commands us to do. We will then be loving God in the manner in which he wants us to. |
JN1 2:6 | We ought to love our fellow believers in order to continue behaving like people living in the light. |
JN1 2:11 | I am writing all these matters to you because I know that God has forgiven your sins and also because you have come to know the Father and Christ, who has always existed, and because you have overcome the evil one. |
JN1 2:14 | Do not esteem the evil manner in which other people in the world live, since you want to live forever. |
JN1 2:17 | 1 John 2:18-25 |
JN1 2:25 | Continue to conduct your lives according to what you were originally taught by God’s Spirit. |
JN1 2:27 | Continue to live united to Christ, so that you will be confident that he will accept you when he returns. |
JN1 3:0 | Do not allow anyone to seduce you to sin, because you are God’s children, and his children maintain themselves free from evil behavior by not continuing to sin as the devil’s children do. |
JN1 3:10 | Because we have been changed from being spiritually dead people to being spiritually alive people, we should love each other genuinely by helping our fellow believers who are in need. |
JN1 3:18 | We must believe in God’s Son and love each other in order to be confident that we have a close relationship with God and that we will receive what we ask from him. |
JN1 4:0 | Continue to test the teachings you hear to know whether or not they are from God. You should test those who teach them by whether or not they acknowledge that Jesus Christ came in human form and also by what kind of people listen to that kind of teaching. |
JN1 4:6 | We must love each other. God shows us what real love is. |
JN1 4:11 | In order to be assured that we are conducting our lives according to God’s character, we must love God and our fellow believers, because God loved us first. |
JN1 5:0 | Those who believe that Jesus is God’s Chosen One are people who have been caused to live spiritually, and they love their fellow believers. They obey God’s commands and overcome the evils of human society. |
JN1 5:5 | Jesus came from God to earth. Those who believe in and live united to him have eternal life. |
JN1 5:12 | We have a close relationship with God because we are united to his Son. Because of that relationship, we have eternal life. |
JN2 1:0 | 2 John 1-3 |
JN2 1:0 | I, the Elder, write to the congregation and to all the members. I love you and know that God the Father and his Son will bless us. |
JN2 1:3 | I am happy that some of your members are living just like God commanded us to live. |
JN2 1:4 | Continue to love each other just like God commanded us to love when we first began to believe his true message. |
JN2 1:6 | Be on your guard against teachers of false doctrine, so that you will receive your complete reward of being with God eternally. Do not welcome or encourage any of these false teachers in any way. |
JN2 1:11 | Instead of writing much more to you, I expect to come and talk directly with you. The members of your sister congregation greet you. |
JN3 1:0 | 3 John 1-4 |
JN3 1:0 | I, the Elder, write to you, Gaius, whom I truly love. I ask God that you will do well in all respects. I am happy because of the way you conduct your lives. |
JN3 1:4 | Continue receiving the visiting fellow believers, as you have been doing. |
JN3 1:6 | Especially provide for them financially. |
JN3 1:8 | Because Diotrephes does not recognize my authority, I will publicly expose what he does in opposing us. |
JN3 1:10 | Do not imitate a bad example; imitate good ones. |
JN3 1:11 | You will do well to receive Demetrius, who is highly recommended. |
JN3 1:12 | Instead of writing more, I expect to visit you soon, and we will speak directly with one another. Our mutual friends here send their greetings to all of you. |
JDE 1:0 | Jude 1-2 |
JDE 1:0 | I, Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, write to you who are chosen, loved, and protected by God. |
JDE 1:2 | Proclaim the truth that we believe and strongly defend it against those who oppose it. |
JDE 1:4 | How God destroyed three groups illustrates that he will destroy these ungodly people in your midst. |
JDE 1:8 | Those teachers of false doctrine revile the spiritual beings that they do not understand. But God will destroy them. |
JDE 1:10 | Because the teachers of false doctrine do wicked things, God will condemn them to hell. They are dangerous, useless, spiritually dead, restless, shameless, and unreliable. |
JDE 1:13 | Enoch prophesied that the Lord will condemn people like the wicked teachers of false doctrine. They grumble, are discontent, and are arrogant flatterers. |
JDE 1:16 | The apostles predicted that wicked people like the teachers of false doctrine would come. They divide believers, live according to what they desire, and are devoid of God’s Spirit. |
JDE 1:19 | Believe the truth more firmly, pray by the power of the Spirit, and keep expecting God to be merciful. |
JDE 1:21 | Mercifully help those who are not certain what to believe, rescue those who are in danger of being influenced by the teachers of false doctrine, and pity those completely convinced by them. |
JDE 1:23 | God, who is able to keep you from being condemned for your sin and to present you guiltless before him, was great and ruled before time began, is still like that, and will remain so forever. |
REV 1:0 | Revelation 1:1-3 |
REV 1:0 | John urged people to read this book, listen carefully to it, and obey it. |
REV 1:3 | John said that he was writing to believers in the seven congregations in Asia. He prayed that God would bless them. He said that Christ is coming to judge rebellious people and to start to rule as king. |
REV 1:8 | Christ appeared to John and commissioned him to write down the vision that he was about to give him and to send it to the seven congregations in Asia. |
REV 2:0 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Ephesus to repent and to begin again to love him and each other. |
REV 2:7 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Smyrna not to fear what they will suffer, but to trust in him, even if they must die because they trust in him. |
REV 2:11 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Pergamum to stop listening to what the Nicolaitans teach. |
REV 2:17 | Christ rebukes the congregation at Thyatira for tolerating a teacher who encourages sexual immorality and eating food offered to idols. He warns those who participate in these things that he will punish them unless they repent, and he exhorts the rest of the members to remain loyal to him. |
REV 3:0 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Sardis to wake up and repent. But the members who are worthy will live with him. |
REV 3:6 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Philadelphia to continue to obey his word and to be faithful; he promises that some Jews will acknowledge that he loves the congregation, and he also promises that he will keep the congregation from spiritual harm during the period of testing. |
REV 3:13 | Christ exhorts the congregation at Laodicea to repent of their neglect of fellowship with him and of their failure to accept his provision for their spiritual needs. He waits to restore fellowship with any member of the congregation who will respond to his call. |
REV 4:0 | A throne was in heaven with someone sitting on it. He was in the midst of every creature and object in heaven. The elders and the living creatures worshipped him as God, the mighty Creator. |
REV 5:0 | When the Lamb took the scroll from the one on the throne, the whole created universe worshipped him who is the worthy Redeemer. The 24 elders and the four living creatures acknowledged that he alone was worthy to open the seals on the scroll. |
REV 6:0 | When the Lamb opened each of the first four seals of the scroll, each of the four living creatures called forth a mounted horseman who brought judgment to people on the earth. |
REV 6:8 | When the Lamb opened the fifth seal, the souls of dead believers appealed to God to judge those who killed them, but God told them to rest a bit longer. |
REV 6:11 | When the Lamb opened the sixth seal of the scroll, the upheaval in the sky and on the earth caused all the rebellious people on earth to hide because they knew God’s time to judge people had come. |
REV 7:0 | An angel came up from the east and commanded the four angels stationed in four directions to continue restraining the destructive winds until angels had sealed God’s servants. |
REV 7:8 | The triumphant crowd stood before the throne in heaven and acknowledged that God and the Lamb had rescued them. Then the angels, the elders, the living creatures, and a huge crowd of people worshipped God and praised him. |
REV 7:12 | One of the elders explained to John about the saints who are dressed in white robes. |
REV 8:0 | When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, it thundered, lightning flashed, and the earth shook. |
REV 8:5 | The successive trumpet blasts by each of the first four angels resulted in great catastrophes on the earth and in the sky. |
REV 8:12 | An eagle announced that rebellious people on earth would suffer greatly. |
REV 9:0 | When the fifth angel blew his trumpet, locusts with stings like scorpions appeared on the earth and attacked rebellious people. |
REV 9:12 | When the sixth angel blew his trumpet, a third of the rebellious people on earth died. But the rest of the rebellious people did not repent of their false worship or of their evil practices. |
REV 10:0 | John saw a mighty angel coming down out of heaven and holding a small open scroll. When the angel shouted, it thundered several times, but a voice from heaven prohibited John from recording what the thunder said. The angel affirmed that the living Creator of the universe would no longer delay in completing what he planned for his creation. |
REV 10:7 | The heavenly voice told John to take the open scroll from the angel and eat it. When he had eaten it, he was commanded by God to prophesy again about all people. |
REV 11:0 | Christ told John to count his worshipers from the nations, and he appointed two witnesses to prophesy to the nations for a limited time. When they finished witnessing, the beast from the underworld killed them, causing the nations to enjoy temporary victory. God resurrected his witnesses, took them to heaven, and punished the nations. Survivors feared and acknowledged God as awesome. |
REV 11:14 | When the seventh angel sounded his trumpet, voices from heaven declared that the Lord God and his Messiah now govern everyone, and the elders declared that the time had come for God’s final judgment. With the heavenly sanctuary open, lightning flashed, thunder reverberated, the earth shook, and large hail fell. |
REV 12:0 | When a royal woman gave birth to a royal son, she fled to safety and care in a place in the wilderness that was prepared by God. |
REV 12:6 | There was a battle in heaven in which Michael and his angels fought the dragon. The dragon and his angels were thrown out of heaven to earth. A loud voice from heaven declared the victory and the sovereignty of God, and lamented the tragic struggle coming to people on earth. |
REV 12:12 | When the dragon pursued the woman who had given birth to a son, he was thwarted, so he prepared to fight against her other offspring. |
REV 13:0 | A beast rose from the ocean. It received power and authority from the dragon. Everyone worshipped it; that is, all people whose names were not recorded in the book of life worshipped the beast for 42 months. |
REV 13:10 | Another beast appeared, having the same authority to rule people that the first beast had, and it caused people on earth to worship the first beast. People made an image of the first beast, and the beast had everyone killed who refused to worship the image. It caused all people to be marked with the name of the first beast. The number of the beast’s name is 666. |
REV 14:0 | John saw the Lamb standing on Zion Mountain with 144,000 redeemed people, who were marked with God’s seal. They were singing a new song that only the redeemed could sing. |
REV 14:5 | An angel announced that after God judged and then destroyed the wicked cities symbolized as Babylon. Another angel declared individual judgment on worshipers of the beast, who symbolizes the head of this world power. The saints are called to remain steadfast. |
REV 14:13 | Someone like the One who came from heaven sat on a cloud, holding a sharp sickle. An angel from the sanctuary commanded him to harvest the earth. Another angel was commanded to reap fruit that grows on vines. He threw the fruit that he harvested into the place where God angrily crushes people like a winepress crushes grapes. When the winepress was trodden, the flow was like a flood of blood on the earth. |
REV 15:0 | John saw in the sky a marvelous sign of the seven angels who were responsible for inflicting people with the seven last plagues. |
REV 15:1 | John saw those who had been victorious over the beast respond to God’s judgment of rebellious people on earth by singing praise to God for his mighty deliverance and righteous judgment. |
REV 15:4 | John saw angels being given the seven bowls of judgment in the heavenly sanctuary, which became filled with the smoke of God’s unapproachable glory. |
REV 16:0 | Four angels emptied their judgment bowls. |
REV 16:9 | Two more angels emptied their judgment bowls on the earth. Demons gathered armies to fight against God. But Jesus warned his people to watch faithfully for his imminent coming. The battle was ready to begin at Armageddon. |
REV 16:15-16 | After the seventh angel emptied his bowl, God punished the very evil city symbolized by Babylon, and destroyed other cities, and terrible disasters followed. |
REV 17:0 | One of the seven angels offered to show John how God will punish the very evil city represented by a prostitute, with whom the rulers of people on earth have been seduced to act immorally and idolatrously. |
REV 17:2 | When the angel took John to a wilderness, he saw an immoral woman who was drunk with the blood of God’s people. The sight caused John to react with great bewilderment. |
REV 17:6 | The angel revealed the meaning of what John had seen, identifying as ruling entities both the beast which amazed people and his seven heads and ten horns, and the angel declared that they would be overcome by the Lamb and defeated. The angel identified the prostitute as representing the very evil city that dominates people, and he declared that it would be destroyed. |
REV 18:0 | A powerful angel descended from heaven and announced that the cities represented by Babylon were about to be completely destroyed because of their immorality and idolatry. |
REV 18:3 | John heard Jesus tell God’s people to flee from those cities. |
REV 18:5 | Jesus sentenced the cities represented by Babylon to destruction. |
REV 18:8 | Earth’s kings, merchants, and maritime traders mourned the loss of those cities. |
REV 18:19 | All of God’s people are called to rejoice because God has pronounced judgment on the cities represented by Babylon. |
REV 19:0 | After the destruction of Babylon, John heard a huge crowd praising God for saving his people and announcing the marriage of the one who is like a lamb. |
REV 19:8 | God will abundantly bless the people who have been invited to celebrate the marriage of the Lamb. Only God should be worshipped. All his servants are on an equal basis. |
REV 19:10 | John saw heaven open and saw the one whom he described as King of kings and Lord of lords mounted on a white horse. |
REV 19:16 | An angel invited all flesh-eating birds to feast on the flesh of people who would be killed by the Rider on the white horse. When the beast and the false prophet gathered kings with their armies to fight against the Rider and his army, the beast and the false prophet were thrown into the lake of fire. The Rider killed rebellious people with his sword, and the birds gorged themselves on their flesh. |
REV 20:0 | John saw an angel coming down from heaven. He seized, bound, and imprisoned the dragon for 1,000 years. |
REV 20:3 | John saw the thrones of the martyrs who lived again and had authority to judge people. Those martyrs are the first people whom God will cause to live again. They will reign with Christ during the 1,000 years. |
REV 20:6 | When Satan is released, he will deceive the nations in order to assemble them to fight against God and his people. God will send fire to burn up the rebellious nations. He will cause Satan to be thrown into the lake of fire for everlasting punishment. |
REV 21:0 | John saw a new heaven, a new earth, and a New Jerusalem, the city where God will dwell permanently with his people. |
