⁶ But these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself, and Apollos for your sake; that in us ye might learn not to be attached, beyond what is written, lest one being for one [minister], ye be puffed up [with prejudice] against another.

¹⁸ Now some are puffed up, as though I would not really come to you.

² And ye are puffed up, though ought ye not rather to be grieved? that he who hath done this deed might be plucked from the midst of you.

⁶ in purity, in knowledge, in long-suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

²⁰ For I am afraid that when I come I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found of you such as ye would not: lest haply there be contentions, jealousies, animosities, quarrels, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:

²¹ envyings, murders, drunkenness, revels, and the like of these, concerning which I tell you now, as I have told you already, that they who live in such practices shall not inherit the kingdom of God. ²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,

² with all humility and meekness, with long suffering, forbearing one another in love;

³² but be ye kind one to another, full of sensibility, forgiving mutually, even as God in Christ hath forgiven you.

¹⁵ Some indeed do it in a spirit of envy and strife; but some also preach Christ with cordial good-will:

¹ IF there be then any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any communion of spirit, if any bowels and compassions, ² fulfil ye my joy, that ye may be united in sentiment, having the same love, of one soul, of one mind. ³ Let nothing be done contentiously or vain-gloriously; but in humility reckoning others superior to yourselves. 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:

¹¹ strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and long-suffering with joy;

¹⁸ Let no man juggle you out of your prize, voluntary in [his] humility and the worship of angels, intruding into things which he never saw, vainly puffed up by his carnal imagination;

¹² Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, long-suffering;

¹⁴ Now we conjure you, brethren, admonish the unruly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the infirm, be patient with all men.

⁴ he is conceited, knowing nothing, but delirious with disputes and quarrels about words, from whence come wrath, contentions, evil speakings, wrong suspicions,

²⁵ with meekness correcting those who are opposers, if at last God may give unto them repentance so as to submit to the conviction of the truth;

¹⁰ But thou hast fully known my doctrine, conduct, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, patience,

² preach the word, be urgent, in season, out of season; reprove, enjoin, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

³ For we ourselves also in time past were thoughtless, disobedient, erroneous, enslaved by various passions and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.

¹⁴ But if ye have bitter envy and contention in your heart, boast not, and lie not against the truth. ¹⁵ This is not the wisdom which cometh from above, but is earthly, sensual, diabolical. ¹⁶ For where envy and contention dwell, there is tumult and every vile deed. ¹⁷ But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, meek, easily persuadable, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial, and void of dissimulation.

⁵ Think ye that the scripture saith without meaning, The spirit which dwelleth in you strongly urges to envy?

¹ WHEREFORE putting far away wickedness of every kind, and all deceit, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all backbitings,

⁸ Finally, be all like-minded, sympathizing, loving fraternally, compassionate, friendly hearted,

⁷ and with piety fraternal affection; and with fraternal affection love.

¹⁶ By this we have known the love [of Christ], because for us he laid down his own life: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. ¹⁷ But whosoever hath worldly abundance, and seeth his brother under necessity, and shutteth his bowels of compassion against him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? ¹⁸ My dear children, let us not love in word and in tongue, but in deed and in truth;

¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

²² but I say unto you, That every man who is angry with his brother without cause, shall be liable to the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrim: but whosever shall say, Thou fool, shall be liable to be cast into hell fire.

⁴ And Jesus, seeing their thoughts, said, wherefore do ye imagine evil things in your hearts?

⁵ Then looking round about on them with indignation, exceedingly grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith to the man, Stretch out thine hand; and he stretched it out: and his hand was restored sound as the other.

³⁹ And when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said within himself, If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what kind of a woman this is that toucheth him; for she is a notorious sinner.

¹² Assuredly then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God. ¹³ Let us therefore no more judge one another; but judge this rather, that no one put a stumbling-block or offence before his brother. ¹⁴ I know, and am convinced by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who thinketh any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. ¹⁵ But if by meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no more according to love. Do not by thy meat destroy him for whom Christ died.

¹ WE then that are strong, ought to bear the infirmities of those who are feeble, and not to gratify ourselves. ² Let every one of us gratify his neighbour in that which is good for his edification.

³⁶ But if a person supposes it would be unseemly for a virgin of his if she should pass the flower of her age [in celibacy], and that duty directs it should be so, let him do as he is inclined, he doth not sin: let such marry.

²⁴ Let no man seek his own gratification, but every one another's good.

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

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.

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.

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.

²⁵ that there might be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

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. 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. ³⁶ Went the word of God from you? or came it unto you only? ³⁷ If any man thinketh that he is a prophet, or spiritually gifted, let him acknowledge that the things which I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. ³⁸ But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. ³⁹ Wherefore, my brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. ⁴⁰ Let all things be done with propriety, and orderly.

¹⁹ namely, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing to them their offences: and hath committed to us the word of reconciliation.

¹³ For ye have been called unto liberty, brethren; only use not that liberty as a pretext for carnality, but in love be subject one to another.

¹ BRETHREN, if a man also be surprised into any act of offence, ye that are spiritual, replace such a one in the spirit of meekness; keeping an attentive eye on thyself, lest thou also be tempted. ² Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

²¹ For all seek their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus.

⁸ Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are serious, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are amiable, whatsoever things are laudable, if there be any virtue, or any thing praise-worthy, pay attention to these things.

⁷ For ye yourselves know how ye ought to imitate us; for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you,

¹⁰ Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Jesus Christ with eternal glory.

¹⁹ Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.

¹⁶ By this we have known the love [of Christ], because for us he laid down his own life: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. ¹⁷ But whosoever hath worldly abundance, and seeth his brother under necessity, and shutteth his bowels of compassion against him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

⁴¹ And as he drew near, beholding the city, he wept over it, ⁴² saying, Oh that thou hadst known, even in this thy day, the things that are for thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

⁵ And they were glad, and agreed with him to give him a sum of money.

³² who, though they know the righteous judgment of God, that they who live in such practices are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also find pleasure in the company of those who live in these practices.

⁹ Let love be undissembled. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

⁹ Now I rejoice, not that ye have been made sorrowful, but that ye have sorrowed unto repentance; for ye have been made sorry in a godly manner, that ye might receive damage from us in nothing. ¹⁰ For sorrow of a godly sort worketh repentance unto salvation never to be repented of, but worldly sorrow worketh death. ¹¹ For behold this very thing, that ye were made sorry after a godly manner, how great diligence did it produce in you! yea, what apologizing! yea, what indignation! yea, what fear! yea, what earnest desire! yea, what zeal! yea, what vengeance! In every step ye have approved yourselves as pure in this affair. ¹² And indeed though I wrote unto you, I did it not [merely] for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause who had suffered the injury, but that our diligent attention for you might be more abundantly manifested to you in the presence of God. ¹³ Therefore we were comforted in your consolation; and exceeding abundantly the more rejoiced we in the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all. ¹⁴ For if I have boasted of you to him in any thing, I am not ashamed; but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so our boasting of you to Titus hath been found truth. ¹⁵ And his bowels more abundantly yearn over you, when he remembers the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him. ¹⁶ I rejoice therefore that in every thing I have confidence in you.

⁴ always in every prayer of mine for you all, making request with joy,

¹⁸ What then? if Christ is preached in whatever manner it be, whether in pretext or reality, even in this do I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

¹⁷ Yea, and should I become the victim, in the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all. ¹⁸ In like manner do ye also joy and rejoice with me.

¹⁸ For many walk, whom I have often mentioned to you, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

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: ⁷ for this cause we have felt consolation, brethren, in you under all our tribulation and distress, because of your fidelity. ⁸ For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord. ⁹ For what sufficient thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice on your account before our God, ¹⁰ night and day most fervently praying that we may see your face, and amply supply the deficiencies of your faith?

¹² that they all might be damned who have not believed the truth, but have taken pleasure in unrighteousness.

⁴ I rejoiced greatly that I found thy children walking in truth, as we have received commandment from the Father.

³ I rejoiced greatly when the brethren came, and bore witness to thy truth, even as thou walkest in the truth. ⁴ I have no greater joy than these tidings, that I hear my own children are walking in the truth.

²² And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end, that man shall be saved.

³⁷ And, behold, a certain woman in the city, who was a notorious offender, when she knew that Jesus was sitting at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster vessel of odoriferous balm, ³⁸ and standing at his feet behind him, began to water his feet with her tears, and to wipe them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the perfumed balm. ³⁹ And when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said within himself, If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what kind of a woman this is that toucheth him; for she is a notorious sinner.

⁴⁴ So turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Thou seest this woman? I came into thine house, even water for my feet thou gavest not; but she hath washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. ⁴⁵ One kiss hast thou not given me, but she from the time she hath come in, hath not ceased tenderly to kiss my feet. ⁴⁶ My head with oil thou hast not anointed; but she hath anointed my feet with odoriferous balm.

⁴ So running before, he climbed up a sycamore-tree, in order to get a sight of him: for he was about to pass that way. ⁵ And when he was come to the spot, Jesus looking up, saw him, and said to him, Zaccheus, come down speedily; for to-day I must abide at thy house. ⁶ And he hastened to come down, and entertained him gladly. ⁷ And when they all saw it, they murmured, saying, That he is gone to lodge with a man, a notorious sinner. ⁸ Then Zaccheus standing up, said unto the Lord, Behold, the half of my goods, Lord, I give unto the poor; and if I have got any thing from any man, by laying false informations, I am ready to restore fourfold. ⁹ Then said Jesus unto him, To-day is salvation come to this house, because that he also is a son of Abraham. ¹⁰ For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

²⁴ For by hope we have been saved: now hope seen is not hope; for that which any man seeth how doth he yet hope for?

¹ WE then that are strong, ought to bear the infirmities of those who are feeble, and not to gratify ourselves.

¹² if others partake of this power over you, ought not we much more? But we have not used this power, and we suffer all things, that we might not put any obstruction in the way of the gospel of Christ.

¹⁸ What then is my reward? That when I preach the gospel, I may put the gospel of Christ to no expence, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. ¹⁹ For though I be free from all men, I have made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more. ²⁰ And I became to the Jews as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to those under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law; ²¹ to those who are without law, as without law (not as being without law to God, but under the law to Christ), that I might gain those who were without law. ²² I became to the weak as weak, that I might gain the weak; I became all things to all men, that by every means I might save some.

⁴ Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated [with pride],

⁸ I plundered other churches, receiving a provision from them, in order to minister to you. ⁹ And when I was with you, and in want, I was burdensome to no man; for my want the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied; and on every occasion I have kept myself from being burdensome, and will keep myself. ¹⁰ I protest, by the truth of Christ in me, that from this boasting no man shall seal up my lips in the regions of Achaia. ¹¹ Wherefore? Because I love you not? God knoweth. ¹² But what I do, I will do also, that I may cut off occasion from those who desire occasion, that wherein they boast, they may be found even as we.

² Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

⁴ so that we ourselves make our boast of you among the churches of God, for your patience and fidelity under all your persecutions and afflictions which ye endure:

³ Thou therefore endure hardships, as a brave soldier of Jesus Christ. ⁴ No man who enters the army involves himself with secular affairs; that he may please the person who hath enlisted him. ⁵ And if a man contend in the public games, he is not crowned victor, unless he contend according to the laws. ⁶ The husbandman who toils is the first who ought to partake of the fruits. ⁷ Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. ⁸ Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead, according to my gospel: ⁹ for which I suffer affliction, even unto chains as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound. ¹⁰ Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Jesus Christ with eternal glory.

²⁴ And a servant of the Lord ought not to quarrel; but to be gentle to all men, apt to teach, forbearing,

¹¹ the persecutions, the sufferings, which beset me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, yet out of them all the Lord delivered me.

⁵ But watch thou in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fully discharge thy ministry.

¹³ Therefore let us go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

¹² Blessed is the man who patiently supports temptation: for when he is proved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to those who love him.

²⁴ who himself bore our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead unto sins, might live unto righteousness; "by whose stripes, [even] his, ye were healed."

³² but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail: and when thou art returned, stablish thy brethren.

⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.

⁶ And Paul laying on them his hands, the Holy Ghost came upon them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

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 THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become as sounding brass, and tinkling cymbal. ² And though I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and all manner of science; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

¹⁰ But when that which is perfect cometh, then that which is in part shall be done away.

¹³ But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greater of these is love.

¹³ In calling it a new covenant, he hath made the first antiquated. Now what is antiquated and grown aged, is near evanescence.

²⁷ All things are delivered up to me by my Father: and no person knoweth the Son but the Father; neither knoweth any person the Father but the Son, and he to whom the Son is pleased to reveal him.

³⁴ For who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been admitted his counsellor?

⁹ But, as it is written, "The things which eye hath not seen, and ear hath not heard, and that have not entered into the heart of man, these hath God prepared for those who love him."

² But if any man conceit that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

¹² For now we see by reflected light, indistinctly; but then face to face: now I know partially; but then shall I know even as I am known.

⁸ To me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

¹⁸ ye may be strengthened to comprehend with all saints, what is the breadth and length, and height and depth; ¹⁹ and to know the love of Christ, transcendently surpassing knowledge, that ye may be filled with all the fulness of God.

² that their hearts may be comforted, firmly united together in love, and unto all riches of full assurance of understanding, in the knowledge of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; ³ in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

¹⁰ Concerning which salvation the prophets eagerly sought and diligently inquired, who prophesied of the grace which is come to you: ¹¹ investigating to what time and to what conjuncture the Spirit of Christ in them pointed, when predicting the sufferings coming upon Christ, and the glories subsequent thereto. ¹² To whom it was revealed, that not for themselves, but for us were their ministrations employed in the things which are now declared unto you by those who have preached the gospel unto you by the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; on which things the angels bending forwards eagerly desire to gaze.

² Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it is not yet evident what we shall be: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him; because we shall see him as he is.

⁷ (for we walk by faith, not by sight.) ⁸ We are confident indeed, and with pleasure expect to go out from the body, and to dwell within with the Lord:

²² And I saw no temple therein; for the Lord God Almighty is the temple thereof, even the Lamb. ²³ And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon to shine upon it: for the glory of God illuminates it, and the Lamb is the lamp thereof.

⁴ And they shall see his face; and his name shall be on their foreheads. ⁵ And there shall be no night there, and they have no need of a lamp, or the light of the sun; because the Lord God illumines them: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

¹ AND I, brethren, have been unable to speak to you as unto spiritual men, but as to carnal, even as to babes in Christ. ² And I have given you milk to drink, and not meat: for hitherto ye have not been capable of it, yea, even to the present moment ye are not capable of it.

²⁰ Brethren, be not children in your minds: though in naughtiness be ye children, but in your minds be men complete.

¹ NOW I affirm, that as long as the heir is an infant, he differeth nothing from a servant, though he be master of all;

⁸ Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

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.

¹⁵ As the Father knoweth me, so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

¹⁸ For I reckon that the sufferings of the present moment are not worthy to be placed against the future glory that shall be revealed to us.

³ But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

⁹ For we know partially, and prophesy partially. ¹⁰ But when that which is perfect cometh, then that which is in part shall be done away.

¹⁸ And we all with face unveiled, beholding the glory of the Lord [reflected] as in a mirror, according to the same image, receive a transformation from glory into glory, as by the Lord, the Spirit.

⁷ (for we walk by faith, not by sight.)

¹² Not that I have already attained, or am now perfect: but I pursue, that I may overtake that for which also by his apprehension of me I am destined by Christ Jesus.

²³ For if any man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man that looks at his natural face in a glass;

⁴ And they shall see his face; and his name shall be on their foreheads.

²⁹ Then Jesus replied to him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear O Israel; the Lord thy God is one Lord: ³⁰ and thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment. ³¹ And the second, like it, is this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: there is no greater commandment than these.

¹³ And they on the rock, are such as when they have heard, with joy embrace the word; and these have not root, who for a time believe, and in a season of trial apostasize. ¹⁴ And that which fell among thorns, are they having heard, and going away, are choked by the cares, and wealth, and pleasures of life, and bring forth no perfect fruit. ¹⁵ But that on the good ground are they who having heard the word, retain it in a heart excellent and good, and bring forth fruit with patience.

²⁷ And he answering said, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and with all thy understanding, and thy neighbour as thyself."

⁴ and patience, proof; and proof, hope; ⁵ and hope doth not make us ashamed; because the love of God is poured out into our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given to us.

²⁴ For by hope we have been saved: now hope seen is not hope; for that which any man seeth how doth he yet hope for? ²⁵ But if we hope for what we see not, we with patience expect it.

¹³ Now the God of hope fill you with all joy, and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Ghost.

¹⁴ If any man's work which he hath built abide [the trial], he shall receive a reward.

¹ THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become as sounding brass, and tinkling cymbal. ² And though I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and all manner of science; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. ³ And if I deal out all my goods in alms, and deliver up my body that I should be burned, but have not love, I am nothing advantaged by it. ⁴ Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated [with pride], ⁵ doth not act unseemly, seeketh not her own advantage, is not passionate, thinketh no evil; ⁶ rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth in the truth; ⁷ beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. ⁸ Love never faileth: but if there be prophetic gifts, they shall be no more; if tongues, they shall cease; if science, it shall vanish away.

¹ FOLLOW earnestly after love, and zealously seek spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.

¹⁴ Let all your concerns be transacted in love.

¹⁰ For we must all appear before the judgment-seat of Christ, that each may receive the things done in the body according to what he hath done, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

¹⁵ and he died for all, that they who live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him that died for them, and rose again.

¹³ For ye have been called unto liberty, brethren; only use not that liberty as a pretext for carnality, but in love be subject one to another. ¹⁴ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. ¹⁵ But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed by one another. ¹⁶ But I say, Walk in the Spirit, and ye will not fulfil the lust of the flesh. ¹⁷ For the flesh hath appetites contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit contrary to the flesh, and these act in opposition the one to the other: so that ye do not the things which ye would. ¹⁸ But if ye are under the conduct of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. ¹⁹ Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are these: adultery, whoredom, impurity, lasciviousness, ²⁰ idolatry, magical charms, enmities, strifes, jealousies, animosities, quarrels, divisions, heresies,

⁹ And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all understanding;

⁵ because of the hope laid up for you in the heavens, which ye have heard before in the word of truth, the gospel,

²⁷ to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

¹⁴ But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

⁸ but let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

⁷ For God hath not given us a spirit of fear; but of courage, and of love, and of sobriety.

¹¹ But we earnestly desire that every one of you do manifest the same diligence, in order to obtain the full assurance of hope unto the end:

¹⁹ which, as an anchor for our soul, we hold both sure and stedfast, and entering into the sanctuary within the vail,

³⁵ Recede not therefore from your boldness of profession, which brings a great recompence of reward.

³⁹ But we are not of those who turn back unto perdition; but of those who believe to the salvation of the soul.

²¹ who by him believe in God, that raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

¹⁰ He that loveth his brother is in the light, and occasion of stumbling in him there is none.

¹⁴ I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him, who is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

²⁴ Let that abide in you therefore which ye have heard from the beginning. If that abide in you which ye heard from the beginning, ye also shall abide in the Son and in the Father.

³ And every one who hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

⁹ Every one who is born of God, doth not practise sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

⁷ Beloved, let us love one another; because love is from God, and every one who loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. ⁸ He that loveth not, never knew God; for God is love. ⁹ By this was the love of God manifested to us, that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might have life by him. ¹⁰ Herein is love, not that we have loved God, but that he hath loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiatory sacrifice for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. ¹² No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us. ¹³ By this we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his own Spirit. ¹⁴ And we have seen and bear testimony, that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. ¹⁵ Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God. ¹⁶ And we have known and believed the love which God hath towards us. God is love; and he that abideth in love, abideth in God, and God in him. ¹⁷ By this is his love towards us perfected, that we might have confidence at the day of judgment; because as he is, so are we in this world. ¹⁸ Fear is not in this love; but the perfect love casteth out fear: for fear hath anguish. He that is afraid is not made perfect in love.

¹ EVERY one who believeth that Jesus is the Messiah, is born of God; and every one who loveth him that begat, loveth him also who is begotten by him. ² Hereby we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. ³ For this is the love of God, that we should keep his commandments: and his commandments are not burdensome. ⁴ Because every one that is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith. ⁵ Who is he that overcometh the world, except he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

⁴ I rejoiced greatly that I found thy children walking in truth, as we have received commandment from the Father. ⁵ And now I beseech thee, lady, not as writing to thee a new commandment, but that which we have had from the beginning, that we should love one another. ⁶ And this is love, that we should walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, as ye have heard from the beginning, That ye should walk in it.
