1 Corinthians 11 Cross References - Haweis

¹ BE ye imitators of me, as I am of Christ. ² Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the injunctions as I delivered them unto you. ³ But I desire you to take notice that the head of every man is Christ; but the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. ⁴ Every man praying or prophesying, holding [a veil] over his head, dishonoureth his head; ⁵ but every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled, dishonoureth her head; for it is one and the same thing, as if she were shaven. ⁶ For if the woman be not veiled, let her hair be clipped: but if it would be scandalous for a woman to appear clipped or shaved, let her be veiled. ⁷ For a man indeed ought not to veil his head, being the image and the glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. ⁸ For the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man. ⁹ Also the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. ¹⁰ Therefore ought the woman to retain upon her head [this badge of authority], because of the angels [of the churches]. ¹¹ Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man in the Lord. ¹² For as the woman was taken out of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things are of God. ¹³ Judge among yourselves, is it decent for a woman to be praying to God without a covering? ¹⁴ Does not even nature itself teach you, that if a man wear long flowing hair it is a dishonour to him? ¹⁵ But if a woman let her hair flow, it is an ornament to her; for the hair was given her for a covering, ¹⁶ But if any man mean to be contentious about it, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God. ¹⁷ But in the matter I am going to denounce, I do not commend you, that ye meet together not for the better, but for the worse. ¹⁸ For in the first place, when ye assemble in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it. ¹⁹ For there must be heresies among you, that they who are the tried ones, may be made manifest among you. ²⁰ When therefore ye assemble in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper. ²¹ For one in the eating it taketh before another his own supper: and one is hungry, and another drinks to excess. ²² What! have ye not houses to eat in and to drink? or despise ye the church of God, and make those ashamed who have none? What shall I say unto you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. ²³ For I received of the Lord what also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was betrayed, took a loaf: ²⁴ and when he had blessed it, he brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me. ²⁵ In like manner also he took the cup, after they had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. ²⁶ For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew forth the death of the Lord till he come. ²⁷ Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. ²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. ²⁹ For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh condemnation to himself, not distinguishing the Lord's body. ³⁰ For this cause many are diseased and infirm among you, and some asleep [in death]. ³¹ For if we thoroughly judged ourselves, we should not be judged of the Lord. ³² But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we might not be condemned with the world. ³³ Wherefore, when ye meet together to eat the Lord's supper, wait for one another. ³⁴ And if any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that ye meet not together for condemnation. And the other matters I will regulate when I come.

² Let every one of us gratify his neighbour in that which is good for his edification. ³ For even Christ gratified not himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me."

¹⁶ Now I conjure you, be followers of me.

³³ even as I please all men, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, that they may be saved.

¹ BE ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children; ² and walk in love as Christ also hath loved us, and given himself for us, an oblation and sacrifice to God, for an odour of a sweet smell.

⁴ Let not each aim at their own particular interests, but every man at those of others. ⁵ Let the same sentiment of mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

¹⁷ Be ye imitators, brethren, of me, and eye attentively those who walk so as ye have us for an example.

⁶ And ye became imitators of us, and of the Lord, receiving the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost;

⁹ not that we have not such power, but that we might be ourselves an example for you to imitate.

¹² that ye be not slothful, but imitators of those who, by faith and long suffering, are inheriting the promises.

⁶ And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

¹⁷ For this cause have I sent unto you Timothy, who is my son beloved and faithful in Christ, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ Jesus, as I teach every where in every church.

¹⁷ Nevertheless as God has bestowed the gift on every man as the Lord hath called every man, so let him walk, and so I give command in all the churches.

¹⁷ But in the matter I am going to denounce, I do not commend you, that ye meet together not for the better, but for the worse.

²² What! have ye not houses to eat in and to drink? or despise ye the church of God, and make those ashamed who have none? What shall I say unto you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

² by which also ye are saved; if ye cleave to that word I have preached to you, except haply ye have believed in vain.

⁶ But now when Timothy returned to us from you, and brought us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye retain a kind remembrance of us always, earnestly desirous to see us, as we are also to see you:

¹ FINALLY, brethren, we beseech you therefore, and conjure you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk, and please God, so ye would abound more and more. ² For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

¹⁵ Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and firmly hold the injunctions delivered to you, as ye have been taught, whether by our discourse, or by letter.

⁶ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother who walketh disorderly, and not according to the injunction which he hath received from us.

¹⁸ Then Jesus approaching, spake to them, saying, All power is given me in heaven and upon earth.

³⁴ For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God hath not given the Spirit by measure unto him. ³⁵ The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. ³⁶ He that believeth on the Son hath life eternal: and he that believeth not on the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abideth upon him.

²⁰ For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things which he himself doeth: and greater works than these will he shew him, that ye may wonder. ²¹ For as the Father raiseth the dead, and quickeneth them; so also doth the Son quicken whom he pleases. ²² For the Father never judgeth any man, but hath committed all judgment to the Son: ²³ in order that all may honour the Son, just as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him. ²⁴ Verily, verily, I say unto you, That he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment; but is passed from death into life. ²⁵ Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, yea, it is now, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. ²⁶ For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son also to have life in himself; ²⁷ and hath given him authority also to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. ²⁸ Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all who are in the graves shall hear his voice, ²⁹ and they shall come forth; they who have done good actions to the resurrection of life; and they who have been guilty of foul practices, to the resurrection of damnation. ³⁰ I am not able to perform any thing by myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; for I seek not my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

²⁸ Ye have heard that I told you, I am going away, though I am coming again to you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I am going to the Father: because my Father is greater than I.

² even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: ³ and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. ⁴ I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform. ⁵ And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was.

²³ and ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

²⁷ For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, that all things are put under him, it is evident that there is an exception of him, who subjected all things to him. ²⁸ But when he shall have put all things under him, then also the Son himself shall be subjected to him who put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

²⁰ which he displayed in Christ when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly regions, ²¹ far above all principality, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come; ²² and hath put all things under his feet, and hath appointed him head over all to the church, ²³ which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

¹⁵ but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, even Christ:

²² Wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, as to the Lord. ²³ For the husband is the head of the wife, as also Christ is the head of the church; and is himself the saviour of the body. ²⁴ As then the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

⁷ but emptied himself, assuming the form of a servant, made after the similitude of mortal men; ⁸ and found in fashion as man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even to the death of the cross. ⁹ Wherefore God also hath transcendently exalted him, and bestowed on him a name which is above every name: ¹⁰ that to the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of beings celestial and terrestrial, and infernal; ¹¹ and every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus [is] Messiah, to the glory of God the Father.

¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first begotten from the dead, that he might be in all things pre-eminent.

¹⁰ and ye are complete in him, who is the head of all principality and power:

¹⁹ and not firmly attached to the head, from which the whole body, by joints and ligaments, harmoniously adjusted and closely compacted, increaseth with increase from God.

¹⁸ Wives be subject to your own husbands, as is fit in the Lord.

¹¹ Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection: ¹² for I permit not a woman to teach in public, or to assume authority over the man, but to abide in silence.

¹ LIKEWISE, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, even if some obey not the word, by their wives' conduct without the word, they may be won over;

⁵ For so in times of old the holy women also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands; ⁶ as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose children ye are, if ye do well, and are not affrighted with any terror.

¹⁴ Does not even nature itself teach you, that if a man wear long flowing hair it is a dishonour to him?

¹⁰ to another miraculous powers; to another prophecy; to another discernments of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

²⁸ And these also hath God placed in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, next miracles, then gifts of healings, helpers, directors, different kinds of tongues.

¹ FOLLOW earnestly after love, and zealously seek spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. ² For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue, speaketh not to men, but to God: for no man understandeth him; although in spirit he speaketh mysterious truths. ³ But he that prophesieth, addresseth men for edification, and exhortation, and consolation. ⁴ He that speaketh in an unknown tongue, edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church. ⁵ Now I could wish that you all spake with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: for greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret also, that the church may receive edification. ⁶ Now I, brethren, if I should come unto you, speaking in unknown languages, what should I profit you, unless I should speak to you [intelligibly] by revelation, or by science, or by prophecy, or by doctrine? ⁷ In like manner things inanimate, giving sound, whether the pipe, or the harp, unless they express a distinction in their tones, how shall it be known what is piped, or what is harped? ⁸ For if the trumpet also give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for the battle? ⁹ So also ye, unless with the tongue you speak an intelligible discourse, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will speak to the air. ¹⁰ For though there are so many different kinds of languages in the world, yet is not one of them without its meaning. ¹¹ If therefore I know not the force of the expression, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian unto me. ¹² So also ye, if ye zealously affect spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound in them for the edification of the church. ¹³ Therefore let him who speaketh in an unknown tongue, pray that he may interpret also. ¹⁴ For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my mind produces no fruit. ¹⁵ What then is my object? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms with the understanding also. ¹⁶ Else, though thou bless God in spirit, how shall he who filleth the place of an illiterate man, say Amen after thy thanksgiving, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest? ¹⁷ For thou indeed givest thanks to God well, but another man is not edified by it. ¹⁸ I thank my God, that I speak with different tongues more than you all: ¹⁹ but in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. ²⁰ Brethren, be not children in your minds: though in naughtiness be ye children, but in your minds be men complete. ²¹ In the law it is written, "That with other tongues, and with other lips, will I speak to this people: and even thus will they not attend to me, saith the Lord." ²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to those that believe, but to those who do not believe: but the gift of prophecy is not for those who are infidels, but for believers. ²³ If then the whole church assemble together in the same place, and all speak different tongues, and there come in illiterate persons, or infidels, will they not say ye are mad? ²⁴ But if all prophesy, and any infidel or illiterate person come in, he receives conviction from all, he is judged of all: ²⁵ and thus the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so falling down on his face, he will worship God, declaring that God verily is among you.

³⁶ And there was Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asser: she was far advanced in old age, having lived but seven years with a husband, from her virgin state:

¹⁷ "And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour our of my spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

⁹ Now this man had four maiden daughters endued with the gift of prophecy.

³⁴ Let your women be silent in the churches: for it is not permitted to them to speak: but to be in subjection, as also the law saith.

³ But I desire you to take notice that the head of every man is Christ; but the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

⁹ With it we bless God even the Farther; and with the same we curse men, though after the likeness of God.

¹³ For Adam was first formed, Eve afterwards.

¹⁰ See that ye despise not one of these little ones, for I say unto you, That their angels in heaven continually behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.

¹⁴ Are they not all ministerial spirits, sent to perform service on account of those who are about to inherit salvation?

¹⁰ But to the married not I command, but the Lord, That the wife be not separated from the husband: ¹¹ and even if she should be separated, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. ¹² But to the others I speak, not the Lord, If any brother hath a wife unbelieving, yet she chuseth to dwell with him, let him not put her away. ¹³ And the wife which hath a husband not a believer, and he chuses to dwell with her, let her not put him away. ¹⁴ For the husband that believeth not is sanctified by the wife, and the wife who believeth not is sanctified by the husband: else indeed your children were unclean, but now are they holy.

¹² For as the body is one, and hath many members, but all the members of that one body, though many, are one body: so also is Christ. ¹³ For by one Spirit we all have been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free men; and we have all been made to drink into one Spirit. ¹⁴ For the body is not one member, but many. ¹⁵ If the foot should say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it, on this account, not of the body? ¹⁶ And if the ear should say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it not therefore of the body? ¹⁷ If the whole body were eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? ¹⁸ But now hath God placed the members, every one of them in the body, as he hath chosen. ¹⁹ But if the whole were one member, where were the body? ²⁰ But now the members indeed are many, but the body one. ²¹ Nor can the eye say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. ²² Yea, much more the members of the body, which appear to be more feeble, are necessary:

²⁸ There is no more Jew or Gentile, there is no more slave or freeman, there is no more male or female: but ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

³⁶ Because by him, and through him, and for him, are all things, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

⁶ but to us there is one God, the Father; of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

² in these last days hath spoken to us by a Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; ³ who being the splendour of his glory, and the very impress of his substance, and upholding all things with his powerful word, by himself having effected the cleansing of our sins, he sat down at the right hand of Majesty on high;

⁵⁷ And why even of yourselves do ye not decide what is just?

²⁴ Judge not by appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

¹⁵ I speak as unto wise men: judge ye what I say.

³⁵ But if they will learn any thing, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

²¹ And they have been informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews, who are among the Gentiles, apostacy from Moses, saying, That they should not circumcise the children, nor walk after the usual practices.

²⁴ them take with thee, be purified with them, and be at the same expence as they, that they may shave their heads: and all men will know that there is no truth in the things reported of thee, but that thou thyself walkest orderly and observest the law.

³³ For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all the churches of his saints. ³⁴ Let your women be silent in the churches: for it is not permitted to them to speak: but to be in subjection, as also the law saith.

¹ NOW concerning the collection which is for the saints, as I have given an order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.

¹⁴ For ye, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea, in Christ Jesus: for ye suffered the same things also yourselves from your own countrymen, as they too have of the Jews;

³ If any man teach another doctrine, and attend not to the sound words, which are those of Jesus Christ our Lord, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; ⁴ he is conceited, knowing nothing, but delirious with disputes and quarrels about words, from whence come wrath, contentions, evil speakings, wrong suspicions,

³ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from it:

² Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the injunctions as I delivered them unto you.

²⁰ When therefore ye assemble in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.

³⁴ And if any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that ye meet not together for condemnation. And the other matters I will regulate when I come.

²³ If then the whole church assemble together in the same place, and all speak different tongues, and there come in illiterate persons, or infidels, will they not say ye are mad?

²⁶ How comes it then, brethren, that when ye assemble together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? Let all things be done to edification.

²⁵ not deserting the assembling of ourselves together, as is the custom with some, but exhorting to it; and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

¹⁴ or to governors, as sent by him for the punishment of wicked doers, but the praise of those who do well.

¹⁰ Now I conjure you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no schisms among you; but that ye be perfectly united together in the same mind and the same sentiment. ¹¹ For I have been informed concerning you, my brethren, by those of the family of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. ¹² Now this I observe, that one and another of you saith, I am indeed of Paul; but I of Apollos; but I of Cephas; but I am of Christ.

³ For ye are still carnal: for since there are among you envy, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as [other] men?

¹ IT is generally reported that there is whoredom among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.

¹ DARE any of you, having a matter of controversy with another, sue for judgment before the unjust, and not before the saints?

⁷ Wo to the world because of offences! for there is a necessity that offences come: nevertheless, wo to that man by whom the offence cometh!

³⁵ (so shall a dart pierce through thy own soul) that the reasonings of many hearts may be laid open,

¹ THEN he said to his disciples, It is impossible that offences should not come; but wo to him through whom they come!

¹⁷ Then arose the high-priest, and all those who were connected with him, (which was the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with zeal,

⁵ But up rose some of the pharisaical sect, who professed the faith, insisting, That it was necessary to circumcise them, and to enjoin them to observe the law of Moses.

³⁰ Yea, from among yourselves shall men arise, speaking perverting doctrines, to draw away disciples after them.

⁵ For we found this fellow a pest [to society], and exciting sedition among all the Jews throughout the whole world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazareans:

¹⁴ But this I confess to thee, that after the way which they call a sect, so worship I the God of our ancestors, believing all things that are written in the law, and in the prophets:

⁵ who previously knew me a long while ago, (if they chose to bear testimony,) that according to the most precise sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

²² But we think it highly proper to hear from thee what thy sentiments are; for indeed as to this sect, it is well known to us that everywhere it meets with opposition.

⁵ Examine yourselves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your ownselves: know ye not your ownselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobate? ⁶ But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate. ⁷ Now I pray unto God that ye do no evil, not that we should appear approved, but that you may do that which is laudable, though we should be as reprobates.

²⁰ idolatry, magical charms, enmities, strifes, jealousies, animosities, quarrels, divisions, heresies,

¹ NOW the Spirit speaketh expresly, that in the latter days some will apostatise from the faith, giving heed to spirits of delusion, and doctrines of devils; ² men who teach lies with hypocrisy; and have their own consciences cauterised;

¹⁰ An heretical person after a first and second admonition reject;

¹ BUT there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers also among you, who wickedly introduce damnable heresies, and deny the sovereign Lord who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction. ² And many will go out of the way after their fatal errors; by means of whom the way of truth will be injuriously reviled.

¹⁹ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they departed, that they might be made manifest that they are not all of us:

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? ¹⁷ For we, though many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf. ¹⁸ Behold Israel after the flesh. Are not they who eat of the sacrifices partakers with the altar?

²³ For I received of the Lord what also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was betrayed, took a loaf: ²⁴ and when he had blessed it, he brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me. ²⁵ In like manner also he took the cup, after they had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

¹³ receiving the recompence of iniquity, counting daily luxury their pleasure; spots and blemishes, when they feast together with you; riotously indulging in their own delusions:

¹² These are in your feasts of love, as sunken rocks; though joining in your banquet, they feed themselves fearlessly; clouds without water carried about by the winds; trees untimely withering, fruitless, twice dead, rooted up;

²⁸ Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed as shepherds the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood.

³² Give no occasion of stumbling either to the Jews or the Gentiles, or the church of God:

⁹ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

⁵ for if a man knoweth not how to order his own family, how shall he take proper care of the church of God?

¹⁵ but should I be delayed, that thou mayest know how it behoveth thee to conduct thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and the pedestal of truth.

⁵ Hear me, my beloved brethren. Hath not God elected the poor of this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to those who love him; ⁶ but ye have put contempt on the poor man? Do not the rich men tyrannize over you? and they drag you to the tribunals.

² Ye know that after two days is the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

¹⁷ Then on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?

²⁶ Then as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessing, brake, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. ²⁷ And taking the cup, and giving thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this: ²⁸ for this is my blood, that [blood] of the new testament, which is shed for many, for the remission of sins.

³⁴ Jesus saith to him, I tell thee of a certainty, that this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

²⁰ teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo! I am with you at all times even to the end of the world. Amen.

²² And as they were eating, Jesus taking a loaf, when he had blessed, brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. ²³ And taking the cup, when he had given thanks, he gave it to them; and they all drank out of it. ²⁴ And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.

¹⁹ And taking a loaf, he gave thanks, and brake, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me. ²⁰ And the cup in like manner, after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

⁷ And on the first day of the week, when the disciples were assembled to break bread, Paul preached unto them (ready to depart on the morrow), and extended his discourse until midnight.

³ For I delivered to you among the first things that which I also had received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures;

¹ PAUL the apostle (not [sent] from men, nor by man, but by Jesus Christ, and our Father who raised him from the dead),

¹¹ But I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not a merely human ministry. ¹² For I neither received it from man, nor was taught, but by immediate revelation from Jesus Christ.

² For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

¹³ Verily I say unto you, Wherever this Gospel is preached through the whole world, what she hath done shall be also spoken of for a memorial of her.

⁵³ Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves. ⁵⁴ He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁵⁵ For my flesh truly is meat, and my blood truly is drink. ⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him. ⁵⁷ As the life-giving Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same shall live by me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as the manna your fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live to eternity.

⁷ Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new mass, as ye are unleavened. For our passover hath been sacrificed for us, even Christ. ⁸ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

³ and did all eat the same spiritual meat; ⁴ and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual rock which followed them; but that rock was Christ.

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? ¹⁷ For we, though many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.

²⁷ Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. ²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

²⁰ And the cup in like manner, after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

¹⁶ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

⁶ Who hath made us also able ministers of the new testament, not of the letter but of the spirit; for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

¹⁴ But their understandings were darkened: for unto this day the same veil in their reading the old testament abideth unremoved; which veil is taken away by Christ.

¹⁵ And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that, death being suffered for the redemption of transgressions committed against the first testament, they who are called might receive the promise of an eternal inheritance. ¹⁶ For where a testament is, of necessity the death of the testator is implied. ¹⁷ For a testament is valid when men are dead; for else it is of no efficacy whilst the testator is alive. ¹⁸ Wherefore also that first testament was not consecrated without blood. ¹⁹ For when every command according to the law had been spoken by Moses to all the people, taking the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, ²⁰ saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.

²⁰ Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great pastor of the sheep, by the blood of the everlasting testament,

³ And if I go and prepare you a place, I will come again, and receive you to myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

²² Jesus saith to him, If I will that he abide till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

¹¹ who also said to them, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up to heaven? this Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in the same manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

⁵ Wherefore judge nothing before the time until the Lord come, who also will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will manifest the counsels of men's hearts; and then shall praise be given to each from God.

²³ But every one in his own rank: Christ the first-fruit; afterwards those that are Christ's at his appearing.

¹⁶ For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

¹⁰ when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired by all those who believe; because our testimony was believed among you in that day.

² that ye be not hastily agitated with apprehension, nor troubled, neither by spirit, nor by discourse, nor by letter, as coming from us, as though the day of the Lord was instantly approaching. ³ Let no man deceive you in any way: because that cannot be till the apostasy come first, and the man of sin appear, the son of perdition,

²⁸ so Christ having been once offered in sacrifice to bear the sins of men, will appear the second time without sin, to those who expect him, for their salvation.

¹⁰ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief by night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a rushing noise, and the first principles of matter in flames dissolve, and the earth and all the works upon it be burnt up.

²⁸ And now, my dear children, abide in him; that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be put to shame by him at his coming.

¹⁴ Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied also of these men, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with myriads of his saints,

⁷ Behold! he is coming with clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall lament bitterly, smiting their bosoms, because of him: even so! Amen.

¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and one sat upon it, from whose presence fled the earth and the heaven, and no place was found for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things written in the books according to their works.

²⁰ He that testifieth these things saith, Verily, I come quickly. Amen. Yea come, Lord Jesus!

¹¹ Then the king coming in to look around on the guests, saw there a man who had not put on the wedding garment:

⁵¹ I am the bread that giveth life, which came down from heaven: if any person eat of this bread, he shall live to eternity; and the bread indeed which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

⁶³ The Spirit is the life-giving power; the flesh contributeth nothing: the declarations which I make to you, they are spirit, and they are life. ⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who the person was that should betray him.

¹⁸ I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me, hath lift up his heel against me. ¹⁹ Now I tell you previously, before this comes to pass, that, when it cometh to pass, ye may believe that I am. ²⁰ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I shall send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me. ²¹ As Jesus was speaking these words, he was greatly agitated in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. ²² Then the disciples looked one at another, doubting of whom he spake. ²³ Now there was one of the disciples reclining on the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus loved. ²⁴ Therefore Simon Peter gave him a significant look, that he should inquire of Jesus, which of them it should be of whom he spake. ²⁵ And he leaning on the breast of Jesus, said to him, Lord, which is it? ²⁶ Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel of bread, when I have dipped it. And dipping the morsel of bread, he gave it unto Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. ²⁷ And after the sop, then entered Satan into him. Jesus saith to him, What thou doest, do quickly.

²¹ Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of daemons: ye cannot be partakers of the table of the Lord, and the table of daemons.

²⁹ by how much, think ye, shall he be counted worthy of more condign punishment who hath trampled on the Son of God, and regarded the blood of his testament, by which he was sanctified, as an unclean thing, and hath treated the gracious Spirit contumeliously?

²³ If therefore thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; ²⁴ leave there thy gift before the altar, and go: first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

³¹ For if we thoroughly judged ourselves, we should not be judged of the Lord.

⁵ Examine yourselves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your ownselves: know ye not your ownselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobate?

⁴ But let every man bring his own work to the test, and then shall he have glorying in himself alone, and not [by comparison] with another.

²⁰ For should our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. ²¹ Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have confidence towards God.

² Wherefore he that sets himself against authority, resists the ordinance of God: and they who resist shall receive to themselves condemnation.

²⁴ and when he had blessed it, he brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me.

²⁷ Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

³⁰ For this cause many are diseased and infirm among you, and some asleep [in death].

³² But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we might not be condemned with the world. ³³ Wherefore, when ye meet together to eat the Lord's supper, wait for one another. ³⁴ And if any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that ye meet not together for condemnation. And the other matters I will regulate when I come.

¹⁴ But solid nourishment is proper for grown men, even as many as by habit have their organs of perception exercised for the discernment both of good and evil.

¹ MY brethren, be not many teachers, knowing that we shall receive a severer judgment.

¹² But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your no, no; that ye fall not under condemnation.

³⁶ For David indeed, after having served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was placed with his fathers, and saw corruption.

³² But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we might not be condemned with the world.

⁵¹ Behold, I shew you a mystery; we shall not indeed all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

¹⁴ For if we believe that Jesus died, and rose again, so also those that have fallen asleep for Jesus shall God bring with him.

⁵ And have you forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you, as children, "My son, count not lightly of the Lord's childlike correction, nor faint when under his rebuke: ⁶ for whom the Lord loveth he correcteth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth." ⁷ If ye patiently endure correction, God carries himself towards you as his children: for who is the son whom the father doth not correct? ⁸ If then ye are without correction, of which all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not children. ⁹ If then we have had the fathers of our flesh for correctors, and reverenced them; shall we not much more be under subjection to the Father of spirits, and live? ¹⁰ For they indeed for a few days as seemed proper to themselves corrected us; but he for our own advantage, that we might be partakers of his holiness. ¹¹ Now all correction at the moment seemeth not to be cause for joy, but for sorrow; but after a while it produceth peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have thereby been disciplined.

¹⁹ As many as I love, I rebuke and correct: be zealous then, and repent.

¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, ¹⁹ and I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hirelings. ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet at a considerable distance, his father discovered him, and was moved with compassion, and running, fell on his neck, and kissed him again and again.

²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

⁹ If we confess our sins, faithful is he and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

⁵ Remember then from whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and practise thy first works; but if not, I am coming to thee quickly, and I will remove thy lamp out of its place, except thou repent.

² Be vigilant and strengthen the things which remain, which are ready to die; for I have not found thy works complete before God. ³ Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and observe, and repent. If then thou art not found watching, I will come upon thee as a thief, and thou shalt in no wise know at what hour I will come upon thee.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatsoever things the law saith, it speaks to those who are under the law: that every mouth might be sealed up, and all the world become criminal before God.

¹⁹ We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the power of that wicked one.

¹⁹ But I will come shortly unto you, if the Lord please, and will know, not the prating of them that are puffed up, but the power.

²¹ For one in the eating it taketh before another his own supper: and one is hungry, and another drinks to excess. ²² What! have ye not houses to eat in and to drink? or despise ye the church of God, and make those ashamed who have none? What shall I say unto you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

² On the first day of the week let every one of you set apart with himself, treasuring it up, whatsoever he may please to give, that when I come there may be then no gatherings.

⁵ Now I will come unto you when I have passed through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia);

⁵ For this purpose I left thee behind me at Crete, that thou mightest direct the regulations which remained to be executed, and that thou shouldest appoint presbyters in every city, as I charged thee to do:
