John 17:3 Now this is eternal life - that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent.
Acts 3:15 You killed the Originator of life, whom God raised from the dead. To this fact we are witnesses!
Acts 3:22 Moses said, 'The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must obey him in everything he tells you.
Acts 4:12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved."
Acts 8:23 For I see that you are bitterly envious and in bondage to sin."
Acts 9:36 Now in Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which in translation means Dorcas). She was continually doing good deeds and acts of charity.
Acts 9:37 At that time she became sick and died. When they had washed her body, they placed it in an upstairs room.
Acts 9:38 Because Lydda was near Joppa, when the disciples heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him and urged him, "Come to us without delay."
Acts 9:39 So Peter got up and went with them, and when he arrived they brought him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him, crying and showing him the tunics and other clothing Dorcas used to make while she was with them.
Acts 9:40 But Peter sent them all outside, knelt down, and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, get up." Then she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
Acts 9:41 He gave her his hand and helped her get up. Then he called the saints and widows and presented her alive.
Acts 9:42 This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
Acts 15:9 and he made no distinction between them and us, cleansing their hearts by faith.
Acts 20:28 Watch out for yourselves and for all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God that he obtained with the blood of his own Son.
Acts 26:18 to open their eyes so that they turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a share among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:17 For the righteousness of God is revealed in the gospel from faith to faith, just as it is written, "The righteous by faith will live."
Romans 1:19 because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
Romans 1:21 For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened.
Romans 1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves.
Romans 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
Romans 2:23 You who boast in the law dishonor God by transgressing the law!
Romans 2:24 For just as it is written, "the name of God is being blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."
Romans 2:28 For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision something that is outward in the flesh,
Romans 2:29 but someone is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart by the Spirit and not by the written code. This person's praise is not from people but from God.
Romans 3:27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded! By what principle? Of works? No, but by the principle of faith!
Romans 4:16 For this reason it is by faith so that it may be by grace, with the result that the promise may be certain to all the descendants - not only to those who are under the law, but also to those who have the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all
Romans 4:21 He was fully convinced that what God promised he was also able to do.
Romans 5:1 Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Romans 5:2 through whom we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the hope of God's glory.
Romans 5:5 And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 6:6 We know that our old man was crucified with him so that the body of sin would no longer dominate us, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.
Romans 6:22 But now, freed from sin and enslaved to God, you have your benefit leading to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.
Romans 7:6 But now we have been released from the law, because we have died to what controlled us, so that we may serve in the new life of the Spirit and not under the old written code.
Romans 7:24 Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?
Romans 8:2 For the law of the life-giving Spirit in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.
Romans 8:6 For the outlook of the flesh is death, but the outlook of the Spirit is life and peace,
Romans 8:7 because the outlook of the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to the law of God, nor is it able to do so.
Romans 8:9 You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, this person does not belong to him.
Romans 8:13 (for if you live according to the flesh, you will die), but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live.
Romans 8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God.
Romans 8:17 And if children, then heirs (namely, heirs of God and also fellow heirs with Christ) - if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him.
Romans 8:21 that the creation itself will also be set free from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of God's children.
Romans 8:26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how we should pray, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.
Romans 8:35 Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will trouble, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
Romans 8:36 As it is written, "For your sake we encounter death all day long; we were considered as sheep to be slaughtered."
Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we have complete victory through him who loved us!
Romans 8:38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor heavenly rulers, nor things that are present, nor things to come, nor powers,
Romans 8:39 nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 9:21 Has the potter no right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special use and another for ordinary use?
Romans 9:22 But what if God, willing to demonstrate his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the objects of wrath prepared for destruction?
Romans 9:23 And what if he is willing to make known the wealth of his glory on the objects of mercy that he has prepared beforehand for glory -
Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law, with the result that there is righteousness for everyone who believes.
Romans 10:8 But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith that we preach),
Romans 10:10 For with the heart one believes and thus has righteousness and with the mouth one confesses and thus has salvation.
Romans 10:15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How timely is the arrival of those who proclaim the good news."
Romans 11:17 Now if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among them and participated in the richness of the olive root,
Romans 11:20 Granted! They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear!
Romans 11:23 And even they - if they do not continue in their unbelief - will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
Romans 11:24 For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted back into their own olive tree?
Romans 12:8 if it is exhortation, he must exhort; if it is contributing, he must do so with sincerity; if it is leadership, he must do so with diligence; if it is showing mercy, he must do so with cheerfulness.
Romans 12:10 Be devoted to one another with mutual love, showing eagerness in honoring one another.
Romans 12:14 Bless those who persecute you, bless and do not curse.
Romans 12:16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.
Romans 12:21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Romans 13:12 The night has advanced toward dawn; the day is near. So then we must lay aside the works of darkness, and put on the weapons of light.
Romans 13:3 (for rulers cause no fear for good conduct but for bad). Do you desire not to fear authority? Do good and you will receive its commendation,
Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything, except to love one another, for the one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
Romans 14:13 Therefore we must not pass judgment on one another, but rather determine never to place an obstacle or a trap before a brother or sister.
Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God does not consist of food and drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Romans 14:19 So then, let us pursue what makes for peace and for building up one another.
Romans 16:1 Now I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church in Cenchrea,
Romans 16:18 For these are the kind who do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By their smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of the naive.
1 Corinthians 1:18 For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:24 But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
1 Corinthians 2:5 so that your faith would not be based on human wisdom but on the power of God.
1 Corinthians 2:12 Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God.
1 Corinthians 2:16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to advise him? But we have the mind of Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:7 So neither the one who plants counts for anything, nor the one who waters, but God who causes the growth.
1 Corinthians 3:11 For no one can lay any foundation other than what is being laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is demonstrated not in idle talk but with power.
1 Corinthians 5:7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch of dough - you are, in fact, without yeast. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
1 Corinthians 5:8 So then, let us celebrate the festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of vice and evil, but with the bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.
1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived! The sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, passive homosexual partners, practicing homosexuals,
1 Corinthians 6:10 thieves, the greedy, drunkards, the verbally abusive, and swindlers will not inherit the kingdom of God.
1 Corinthians 6:19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
1 Corinthians 6:20 For you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.
1 Corinthians 7:22 For the one who was called in the Lord as a slave is the Lord's freedman. In the same way, the one who was called as a free person is Christ's slave.
1 Corinthians 7:31 those who use the world as though they were not using it to the full. For the present shape of this world is passing away.
1 Corinthians 8:1 With regard to food sacrificed to idols, we know that "we all have knowledge." Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
1 Corinthians 9:18 What then is my reward? That when I preach the gospel I may offer the gospel free of charge, and so not make full use of my rights in the gospel.
1 Corinthians 9:24 Do you not know that all the runners in a stadium compete, but only one receives the prize? So run to win.
1 Corinthians 9:25 Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.
1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 11:5 But any woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is one and the same thing as having a shaved head.
1 Corinthians 12:7 To each person the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the benefit of all.
1 Corinthians 12:8 For one person is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, and another the message of knowledge according to the same Spirit,
1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up.
1 Corinthians 13:5 It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful.
1 Corinthians 13:7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
1 Corinthians 14:15 What should I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing praises with my spirit, but I will also sing praises with my mind.
1 Corinthians 14:32 Indeed, the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,
1 Corinthians 14:33 for God is not characterized by disorder but by peace.As in all the churches of the saints,
1 Corinthians 14:34 the women should be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak. Rather, let them be in submission, as in fact the law says.
1 Corinthians 14:35 If they want to find out about something, they should ask their husbands at home, because it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in church.
1 Corinthians 15:22 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals."
1 Corinthians 15:45 So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living person"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
1 Corinthians 15:47 The first man is from the earth, made of dust; the second man is from heaven.
2 Corinthians 2:15 For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing -
2 Corinthians 3:3 revealing that you are a letter of Christ, delivered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on stone tablets but on tablets of human hearts.
2 Corinthians 3:6 who made us adequate to be servants of a new covenant not based on the letter but on the Spirit, for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
2 Corinthians 3:9 For if there was glory in the ministry that produced condemnation, how much more does the ministry that produces righteousness excel in glory!
2 Corinthians 4:4 among whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of those who do not believe so they would not see the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God.
2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said "Let light shine out of darkness," is the one who shined in our hearts to give us the light of the glorious knowledge of God in the face of Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that the extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us.
2 Corinthians 5:17 So then, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; what is old has passed away - look, what is new has come!
2 Corinthians 5:19 In other words, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting people's trespasses against them, and he has given us the message of reconciliation.
2 Corinthians 6:2 For he says, "I heard you at the acceptable time, and in the day of salvation I helped you." Look, now is the acceptable time; look, now is the day of salvation!
2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not become partners with those who do not believe, for what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship does light have with darkness?
2 Corinthians 6:18 and I will be a father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters," says the All-Powerful Lord.
2 Corinthians 10:4 for the weapons of our warfare are not human weapons, but are made powerful by God for tearing down strongholds. We tear down arguments
2 Corinthians 10:13 But we will not boast beyond certain limits, but will confine our boasting according to the limits of the work to which God has appointed us, that reaches even as far as you.
2 Corinthians 10:14 For we were not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach as far as you, because we were the first to reach as far as you with the gospel about Christ.
2 Corinthians 13:5 Put yourselves to the test to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize regarding yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you - unless, indeed, you fail the test!
Galatians 1:12 For I did not receive it or learn it from any human source; instead I received it by a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Galatians 1:16 to reveal his Son in me so that I could preach him among the Gentiles, I did not go to ask advice from any human being,
Galatians 2:4 Now this matter arose because of the false brothers with false pretenses who slipped in unnoticed to spy on our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, to make us slaves.
Galatians 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, proclaimed the gospel to Abraham ahead of time, saying, "All the nations will be blessed in you."
Galatians 3:16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his descendant. Scripture does not say, "and to the descendants," referring to many, but "and to your descendant," referring to one, who is Christ.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female - for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.
Galatians 3:29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendants, heirs according to the promise.
Galatians 4:26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.
Galatians 4:29 But just as at that time the one born by natural descent persecuted the one born according to the Spirit, so it is now.
Galatians 5:1 For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be subject again to the yoke of slavery.
Galatians 5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision carries any weight - the only thing that matters is faith working through love.
Galatians 5:13 For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity to indulge your flesh, but through love serve one another.
Galatians 5:16 But I say, live by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.
Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, depravity,
Galatians 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish rivalries, dissensions, factions,
Galatians 5:21 envying, murder, drunkenness, carousing, and similar things. I am warning you, as I had warned you before: Those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God!
Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
Galatians 5:23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5:24 Now those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also behave in accordance with the Spirit.
Galatians 6:2 Carry one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:10 So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who belong to the family of faith.
Galatians 6:14 But may I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Ephesians 2:1 And although you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
Ephesians 2:2 in which you formerly lived according to this world's present path, according to the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the ruler of the spirit that is now energizing the sons of disobedience,
Ephesians 2:6 and he raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God;
Ephesians 2:15 when he nullified in his flesh the law of commandments in decrees. He did this to create in himself one new man out of two, thus making peace,
Ephesians 2:16 and to reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by which the hostility has been killed.
Ephesians 2:19 So then you are no longer foreigners and noncitizens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of God's household,
Ephesians 2:20 because you have been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone.
Ephesians 3:9 and to enlighten everyone about God's secret plan - a secret that has been hidden for ages in God who has created all things.
Ephesians 4:1 I, therefore, the prisoner for the Lord, urge you to live worthily of the calling with which you have been called,
Ephesians 4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Ephesians 4:7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Ephesians 4:10 He, the very one who descended, is also the one who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
Ephesians 4:12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, that is, to build up the body of Christ,
Ephesians 4:13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God - a mature person, attaining to the measure of Christ's full stature.
Ephesians 4:14 So we are no longer to be children, tossed back and forth by waves and carried about by every wind of teaching by the trickery of people who craftily carry out their deceitful schemes.
Ephesians 4:15 But practicing the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ, who is the head.
Ephesians 4:16 From him the whole body grows, fitted and held together through every supporting ligament. As each one does its part, the body grows in love.
Ephesians 4:24 and to put on the new man who has been created in God's image - in righteousness and holiness that comes from truth.
Ephesians 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
Ephesians 5:26 to sanctify her by cleansing her with the washing of the water by the word,
Ephesians 5:27 so that he may present the church to himself as glorious - not having a stain or wrinkle, or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.
Ephesians 5:8 for you were at one time darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of the light -
Ephesians 6:11 Clothe yourselves with the full armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.
Ephesians 6:13 For this reason, take up the full armor of God so that you may be able to stand your ground on the evil day, and having done everything, to stand.
Ephesians 6:14 Stand firm therefore, by fastening the belt of truth around your waist, by putting on the breastplate of righteousness,
Ephesians 6:15 by fitting your feet with the preparation that comes from the good news of peace,
Ephesians 6:16 and in all of this, by taking up the shield of faith with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Ephesians 6:18 With every prayer and petition, pray at all times in the Spirit, and to this end be alert, with all perseverance and requests for all the saints.
Philippians 1:5 because of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now.
Philippians 1:27 Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ so that - whether I come and see you or whether I remain absent - I should hear that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind, by contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,
Philippians 1:29 For it has been granted to you not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for him,
Philippians 2:2 complete my joy and be of the same mind, by having the same love, being united in spirit, and having one purpose.
Philippians 2:3 Instead of being motivated by selfish ambition or vanity, each of you should, in humility, be moved to treat one another as more important than yourself.
Philippians 2:9 As a result God exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name,
Philippians 2:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow - in heaven and on earth and under the earth -
Philippians 2:11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 3:10 My aim is to know him, to experience the power of his resurrection, to share in his sufferings, and to be like him in his death,
Philippians 3:14 with this goal in mind, I strive toward the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:19 Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, they exult in their shame, and they think about earthly things.
Philippians 3:20 But our citizenship is in heaven - and we also await a savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,
Philippians 3:21 who will transform these humble bodies of ours into the likeness of his glorious body by means of that power by which he is able to subject all things to himself.
Philippians 4:5 Let everyone see your gentleness. The Lord is near!
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of respect, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if something is excellent or praiseworthy, think about these things.
Colossians 1:13 He delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of the Son he loves,
Colossians 1:15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation,
Colossians 1:16 for all things in heaven and on earth were created by him - all things, whether visible or invisible, whether thrones or dominions, whether principalities or powers - all things were created through him and for him.
Colossians 1:18 He is the head of the body, the church, as well as the beginning, the firstborn from among the dead, so that he himself may become first in all things.
Colossians 1:23 if indeed you remain in the faith, established and firm, without shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard. This gospel has also been preached in all creation under heaven, and I, Paul, have become its servant.
Colossians 1:27 God wanted to make known to them the glorious riches of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Colossians 2:2 My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
Colossians 2:3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Colossians 2:5 For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your morale and the firmness of your faith in Christ.
Colossians 2:6 Therefore, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him,
Colossians 2:11 In him you also were circumcised - not, however, with a circumcision performed by human hands, but by the removal of the fleshly body, that is, through the circumcision done by Christ.
Colossians 2:16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you with respect to food or drink, or in the matter of a feast, new moon, or Sabbath days -
Colossians 2:17 these are only the shadow of the things to come, but the reality is Christ!
Colossians 2:19 He has not held fast to the head from whom the whole body, supported and knit together through its ligaments and sinews, grows with a growth that is from God.
Colossians 2:20 If you have died with Christ to the elemental spirits of the world, why do you submit to them as though you lived in the world?
Colossians 2:21 "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!"
Colossians 2:22 These are all destined to perish with use, founded as they are on human commands and teachings.
Colossians 2:23 Even though they have the appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship and false humility achieved by an unsparing treatment of the body - a wisdom with no true value - they in reality result in fleshly indulgence.
Colossians 3:2 Keep thinking about things above, not things on the earth,
Colossians 3:5 So put to death whatever in your nature belongs to the earth: sexual immorality, impurity, shameful passion, evil desire, and greed which is idolatry.
Colossians 3:9 Do not lie to one another since you have put off the old man with its practices
Colossians 3:10 and have been clothed with the new man that is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of the one who created it.
Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Colossians 4:6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.
1 Thessalonians 1:4 We know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you,
1 Thessalonians 4:12 In this way you will live a decent life before outsiders and not be in need.
1 Thessalonians 5:5 For you all are sons of the light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of the darkness.
1 Thessalonians 5:19 Do not extinguish the Spirit.
1 Thessalonians 5:20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt.
1 Thessalonians 5:21 But examine all things; hold fast to what is good.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not arrive until the rebellion comes and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction.
2 Thessalonians 3:6 But we command you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from any brother who lives an undisciplined life and not according to the tradition they received from us.
2 Thessalonians 3:7 For you know yourselves how you must imitate us, because we did not behave without discipline among you,
