Romans 14 Cross References - Murdock

¹ To him who is feeble in the faith, reach forth the hand.

On account of food, destroy not him for whom Messiah died. ¹⁶ And let not our good thing be matter of reproach. ¹⁷ For the kingdom of God, is not food and drink; but is righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. ¹⁸ For he who is in these things a servant of Messiah, is pleasing to God, and approved before men. ¹⁹ Now let us strive after peace, and after the edification of one another. ²⁰ And let us not, on account of food, destroy the work of God. For every thing is, indeed, pure; yet it is evil, to the man who eateth with stumbling. ²¹ It is proper, that we neither eat flesh, nor drink wine, nor do any thing, whereby our brother is stumbled. ²² Thou art one in whom there is faith; keep it to thyself, before God.

It is God who justifieth. ³⁴ Who is it that condemneth? Messiah died, and arose, and is on the right hand of God, and maketh intercession for us. ³⁵ What will sever me from the love of Messiah? Will affliction? or distress? or persecution? or famine? or nakedness? or peril? or the sword? ³⁶ As it is written: For thy sake, we die daily: and, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. ³⁷ But in all these things we are victorious, by means of him who loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, ³⁹ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, will be able to sever me from the love of God, which is in our Lord Jesus Messiah.

¹³ Henceforth, judge ye not one another; but rather, judge ye this, that thou erect not a stumbling-block for thy brother. ¹⁴ I know indeed, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing which is unclean in itself; but to him who thinketh any thing to be unclean, to him only it is defiled.

On account of food, destroy not him for whom Messiah died.

¹⁷ For the kingdom of God, is not food and drink; but is righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

²⁰ And let us not, on account of food, destroy the work of God. For every thing is, indeed, pure; yet it is evil, to the man who eateth with stumbling. ²¹ It is proper, that we neither eat flesh, nor drink wine, nor do any thing, whereby our brother is stumbled. ²² Thou art one in whom there is faith; keep it to thyself, before God. Blessed is he, who doth not condemn himself, in that thing which he alloweth. ²³ For he who eateth and doubteth, is condemned; because he eateth not in faith.

⁹ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercies upon them, as it is written: I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and to thy name will I sing psalms.

¹³ Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, by faith; that ye may abound in his hope, by the power of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁷ And I beseech you, my Brethren, that ye beware of them who cause divisions and stumblings among you, aside from the doctrine which ye have learned: and that ye stand aloof from them. ¹⁸ For they who are such, do not serve our Lord Jesus Messiah, but their own belly: and by bland speeches and good wishes, they beguile the hearts of the simple.

²⁵ Now unto God, who is able to establish you,- (according to my gospel, which is proclaimed concerning Jesus Messiah; and according to the revelation of the mystery, which was hidden from the times that are past,

³⁰ And ye, moreover, are of him in Jesus Messiah; who hath become to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption :

¹ And I, my Brethren, could not talk with you, as with spiritual persons, but as with the carnal, as with babes in Messiah. ² I gave you milk, and did not give you solid food: for ye were not then able to receive it; and even now, ye are not able.

²² whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all things are yours: ²³ and ye are Messiah's, and Messiah is God's.

⁴ -(For I am not conscious in myself of any thing flagrant; yet I am not by this justified; for the Lord is my judge.) ⁵ Therefore pronounce not judgments before the time, or until the Lord come, who will pour light upon the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the thoughts of men's hearts: and then will each one have due praise from God.

⁵ Therefore pronounce not judgments before the time, or until the Lord come, who will pour light upon the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the thoughts of men's hearts: and then will each one have due praise from God.

²⁰ for the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

⁹ Or do ye not know, that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not mistake; neither whoremongers, nor idol-worshippers, nor adulterers, nor debauchers, nor liers with males,

¹² Every thing is in my power but every thing is not profitable to me. Every thing is in my power; but none of them shall have dominion over me. ¹³ Food is for the belly; and the belly is for food; but God will bring them both to naught. But the body is not for whoredom, but for our Lord; and our Lord for the body.

¹⁹ Or know ye not, that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who abideth in you, whom ye have received from God? And ye are not your own. ²⁰ For ye are bought with a price. Therefore, glorify ye God, with your body, and with your spirit, which are God's.

¹⁵ But if the unbeliever separateth, let him separate: A brother or sister is not in bondage in such cases: it is to peace, God hath called us.

²² For he that is called by our Lord, being a servant, is God's freedman: likewise, he that is called, being a free man, is the Messiah's servant.

¹ And concerning sacrifices to idols, we know, that in all of us there is knowledge; and knowledge inflateth, but love edifieth.

⁷ But there is not this knowledge in every man; for there are some, who, to the present time, in their conscience, eat it as an offering to idols; and because their conscience is weak, it is defiled.

⁷ But there is not this knowledge in every man; for there are some, who, to the present time, in their conscience, eat it as an offering to idols; and because their conscience is weak, it is defiled. ⁸ But food doth not bring us near to God; for if we eat, we do not abound; and if we eat not, we are not in want.

⁸ But food doth not bring us near to God; for if we eat, we do not abound; and if we eat not, we are not in want. ⁹ See to it, however, lest this your authority become a stumbling-block to the weak. ¹⁰ For if one should see thee in whom there is knowledge, reclining in the temple of idols, will not his conscience, seeing he is a weak person, be encouraged to eat what is sacrificed?

¹⁰ For if one should see thee in whom there is knowledge, reclining in the temple of idols, will not his conscience, seeing he is a weak person, be encouraged to eat what is sacrificed? ¹¹ And by thy knowledge, he who is feeble, and on account of whom the Messiah died, will perish.

¹¹ And by thy knowledge, he who is feeble, and on account of whom the Messiah died, will perish.

¹¹ And by thy knowledge, he who is feeble, and on account of whom the Messiah died, will perish. ¹² And if ye thus sin against your brethren, and wound the consciences of the feeble, ye sin against the Messiah.

¹² And if ye thus sin against your brethren, and wound the consciences of the feeble, ye sin against the Messiah. ¹³ Wherefore, if food is a stumbling-block to my brother, I will for ever eat no flesh, lest I should be a stumbling-block to my brother.

¹³ Wherefore, if food is a stumbling-block to my brother, I will for ever eat no flesh, lest I should be a stumbling-block to my brother.

²² I was with the weak, as weak, that I might gain the weak: I was all things to all men, that I might vivify every one.

²⁵ Whatever is sold in the flesh-market, eat ye, without an inquiry on account of conscience:

²⁹ The conscience I speak of, is not your own, but his who told you. But why is my liberty judged of, by the conscience of others? ³⁰ If I by grace partake, why am I reproached for that, for which I give thanks?

³⁰ If I by grace partake, why am I reproached for that, for which I give thanks? ³¹ If therefore ye eat, or if ye drink, or if ye do any thing, do all things for the glory of God.

³¹ If therefore ye eat, or if ye drink, or if ye do any thing, do all things for the glory of God. ³² Be ye without offence to the Jews, and to the Gentiles, and to the church of God:

³² Be ye without offence to the Jews, and to the Gentiles, and to the church of God: ³³ even as I also, in every thing, please every man; and do not seek what is profitable to me, but what is profitable to many; that they may live.

³³ even as I also, in every thing, please every man; and do not seek what is profitable to me, but what is profitable to many; that they may live.

¹³ Judge for yourselves, among yourselves; is it becoming, that a woman pray to God with her head uncovered?

²⁹ for, whoever eateth and drinketh of it, while he is unworthy, eateth and drinketh condemnation on himself, by not discerning the body of the Lord. ³⁰ For this cause, many among you are diseased and sickly, and many sleep. ³¹ For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

¹ If I could speak in every tongue of men, and in that of angels, and there should be no love in me, I should be like brass that resoundeth, or the cymbal that maketh a noise.

⁴ Love is long-suffering, and is kind; love is not envious; love is not boisterous; and is not inflated; ⁵ and doth nothing that causeth shame; and seeketh not her own; is not passionate; and thinketh no evil;

¹² So also ye, since ye are emulous of the gifts of the Spirit for the edification of the church, seek ye to excel. ¹³ And let him that speaketh in a tongue, pray that he may interpret. ¹⁴ For if I should pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruits. ¹⁵ What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, and will pray with my understanding; and I will sing with my spirit, and will sing with my understanding. ¹⁶ Otherwise, if thou blessest in the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of one unlearned, say Amen, on thy giving thanks; for he knoweth not what thou sayest? ¹⁷ Thou blessest, indeed, very well; but thy neighbor is not edified.

²⁶ I therefore say to you my brethren, that when ye assemble, whoever of you hath a psalm, let him speak; and whoever hath a doctrine, and whoever hath a revelation, and whoever hath a tongue, and whoever hath an interpretation. Let them all be for edification.

²³ every one in his order; the Messiah was the first-fruits; afterwards, they that are the Messiah's, at his coming.

¹² For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and purity, and by the grace of God, and not in the wisdom of the flesh, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially towards you.

² But we have renounced the concealments of dishonor, and we walk not in craftiness, nor do we treat the word of God deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth, we exhibit ourselves to all the consciences of men before God.

¹⁰ For we are all to stand before the judgment-seat of the Messiah, that each may receive retribution in the body, for what he hath done in it, whether of good, or whether of evil. ¹¹ Therefore because we know the fear of our Lord we persuade men; and we are made manifest unto God; and I hope also, we are made manifest to your minds.

¹⁴ For the love of the Messiah constraineth us to reason thus: One died for all; therefore are all dead. ¹⁵ And he died for all, that they who live should not live to themselves, but to him who died for them and rose again.

²¹ For, on your account, he hath made him who knew no sin to be sin, that we might by him become the righteousness of God.

³ Give ye no occasion of offence to any one in any thing, that there may be no reproach on our ministry. ⁴ But we, in all things, would show ourselves to be the ministers of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in necessity, in distresses,

²⁰ And we hereby guarded, that no one should cast censure on us, in respect to this abundance which is ministered by us. ²¹ For we are attentive to things commendable, not only before God, but also before men.

²¹ For we are attentive to things commendable, not only before God, but also before men.

¹⁹ Do ye again suppose, that we would apologize to you? Before God, in the Messiah we speak: and all these things, my beloved, are for the sake of your edification.

¹¹ Finally, my brethren, rejoice, and be perfected, and be comforted: and may harmony and quietness be among you; and the God of love and of peace will be with you.

¹² For before certain ones came from James, he ate with the Gentiles: but when they came, he withdrew himself, and separated; because he was afraid of them of the circumcision.

¹⁹ For I, by the law, have become dead to the law, that I might live to God; and I am crucified with the Messiah. ²⁰ And henceforth it is no more I who live, but the Messiah liveth in me: and the life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

⁹ But now, since ye have known God, or rather, have been known by God, ye turn yourselves again to the weak and beggarly elements, and wish again to be under them! ¹⁰ Ye observe days and moons, and set times, and years!

¹⁰ Ye observe days and moons, and set times, and years!

¹³ And ye, my brethren, have been called into liberty: only let not your liberty be an occasion to the flesh; but, by love, be ye servants to each other.

²² But the fruits of the Spirit are, love, joy, peace, long suffering, suavity, kindness, fidelity, modesty, patience.

¹ My brethren, if one of you should be overtaken in a fault, do ye who are of the Spirit recover him, in a spirit of meekness: and be ye cautious, lest ye also be tempted.

⁵ For every man must take up his own load.

¹⁵ For circumcision is nothing; neither is uncircumcision; but a new creation. ¹⁶ And they who press forward in this path, peace be on them, and mercy; and on the Israel of God.

²⁰ which he put forth in the Messiah, and raised him from the dead, and seated him at his right hand in heaven, ²¹ high above all principalities, and authorities, and powers, and lordships, and above every name that is named, not only in this world but also in that to come: ²² and he hath subjected all things under his feet; and hath given him who is high over all, to be the head of the church; ²³ which is his body, and the fullness of him who filleth all in all:

¹⁰ For we are his creation; who are created in Jesus the Messiah, for good works, which God hath before prepared for us to walk in.

³ And be ye solicitous to keep the unity of the Spirit, in a bond of peace; ⁴ so that ye may become one body, and one Spirit; even as ye are called unto one hope of your calling. ⁵ For, the Lord is one, and the faith one, and the baptism one; ⁶ and one God is the Father of all, and over all, and by all, and in us all. ⁷ And to each of us grace is given, according to the measure of the gift of the Messiah.

²⁹ Let no hateful language come from your mouth, but that which is decorous, and useful for edification, that it may convey grace to those who hear.

² and walk in love; as the Messiah also hath loved us, and hath given up himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God, for a sweet odor.

⁶ Because I am confident of this, that he who hath begun the good works in you, will accomplish them until the day of our Lord Jesus the Messiah.

¹⁰ so that ye may discern the things that are suitable; and may be pure and without offence, in the day of the Messiah,

²⁰ So that I hope and expect, that I shall in nothing be put to shame; but with uncovered face, as at all times, so now, the Messiah will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

²⁰ So that I hope and expect, that I shall in nothing be put to shame; but with uncovered face, as at all times, so now, the Messiah will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. ²¹ For my life is, the Messiah; and if I die, it is gain to me. ²² But if I have fruits of my labors in this life of the flesh, I know not what I shall choose. ²³ For the two press upon me: I desire to be liberated, that I may be with the Messiah; and this would be very advantageous to me. ²⁴ But also the business in regard to you, urges upon me to remain in the body.

¹ If, therefore, ye have consolation in the Messiah, or if a commingling of hearts in love, or if a fellowship of the Spirit, or if compassions and sympathies;

¹ If, therefore, ye have consolation in the Messiah, or if a commingling of hearts in love, or if a fellowship of the Spirit, or if compassions and sympathies; ² complete ye my joy, by having one apprehension, and one love, and one soul, and one mind. ³ And do nothing in strife, or in vain glory; but, with lowliness of mind, let each esteem his neighbor as better than himself. ⁴ And let not each be solicitous only for himself, but every one also for his neighbor.

⁹ Wherefore, also, God hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is more excellent than all names; ¹⁰ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of beings in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth; ¹¹ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus the Messiah is the Lord, to the glory of God his Father.

¹⁷ And if I should be made a libation upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and exult with you all.

²⁹ Receive him then in the Lord, with all joy; and hold in honor those who are such. ³⁰ For, because of the Messiah's work, he came near to death, and little regarded his life, that he might fulfill what you lacked in the ministration to me.

³ For we are the real circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and glory in Jesus the Messiah, and place no reliance on the flesh.

⁹ and be found in him; since my righteousness is not now that from the law, but that which is from faith in the Messiah, that is, the righteousness which is from God;

⁴ Rejoice ye in our Lord, at all times; and again I say, Rejoice.

⁷ And the peace of God, which surpasseth all knowledge, will keep your hearts and your minds, through Jesus the Messiah.

¹⁸ I have now received all, and I abound, and am full: and I accepted all that ye sent to me by Epaphroditus, a sweet odor, and an acceptable sacrifice that pleaseth God.

¹¹ and may be strengthened with all strength, according to the greatness of his glory, in all patience and long suffering;

¹⁶ Let no one therefore disquiet you about food and drink, or about the distinctions of festivals, and new moons, and sabbaths; ¹⁷ which were shadows of the things then future; but the body is the Messiah.

¹² Therefore, holy and beloved, as the elect of God, put ye on compassions, and tenderness, and suavity, and humbleness of mind, and gentleness, and long suffering. ¹³ And be ye indulgent towards one another, and forgiving to one another: and if any one has a complaint against his neighbor, as the Messiah forgave you, so also do ye forgive. ¹⁴ And with all these, join love, which is the girdle of perfection. ¹⁵ And let the peace of the Messiah direct your hearts; for to that ye have been called, in one body; and be ye thankful to the Messiah.

²⁴ and know ye, that from our Lord ye will receive a recompense as the inheritance; for ye serve the Lord the Messiah.

³ and we call to mind before God the Father the works of your faith, and the toil of your love, and the patience of your hope in our Lord Jesus the Messiah. ⁴ For we know your election, my brethren, beloved of God.

⁶ And ye became imitators of us, and of our Lord, in that ye received the word in great affliction, and with the joy of the Holy Spirit.

¹² and we charged you, to walk as it becometh God, who hath called you to his kingdom and his glory.

¹⁴ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them who sleep, will God, by Jesus, bring with him. ¹⁵ And this we say to you, by the word of our Lord, that we who may survive and be alive, at the coming of our Lord, shall not precede them who have slept. ¹⁶ Because our Lord will himself descend from heaven, with the mandate, and with the voice of the chief angel, and with the trump of God; and the dead who are in the Messiah, will first arise; ¹⁷ and then, we who survive and are alive shall be caught up together with them to the clouds, to meet our Lord in the air; and so shall we be ever with our Lord. ¹⁸ Wherefore, comfort ye one another with these words.

¹⁰ who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we might live together with him. ¹¹ Therefore comfort one another, and edify one another, as also ye have done. ¹² And we entreat you, my brethren, that ye recognize them who labor among you, and who stand before your faces in our Lord, and instruct you :

²² and fly from every thing evil.

⁴ and not to throw themselves into fables and stories about genealogies, of which there is no end, which produce contention rather than edification in the faith of God.

³ For this is good and acceptable before God our life-giver;

³ and will forbid to marry; and will require abstinence from meats, which God hath created for use and for thankfulness, by them who believe and know the truth. ⁴ Because whatever is created by God is good; and there is nothing which should be rejected if it be received with thankfulness;

⁴ Because whatever is created by God is good; and there is nothing which should be rejected if it be received with thankfulness; ⁵ for it is sanctified by the word of God and by prayer.

⁴ But if a widow hath children, or grandchildren, let them first learn to show kindness to their own households, and to repay the obligations to their parents; for this is acceptable before God.

¹⁴ I would therefore, that the younger women marry, and bear children, and regulate their houses; and that they give no occasion to the adversary for reproach.

²² Fly from all the lusts of youth; and follow after righteousness, and faith, and love, and peace, with them that invoke our Lord with a pure heart.

¹ I charge thee, before God, and our Lord Jesus the Messiah, who is to judge the living and the dead, at the manifestation of his kingdom,

¹⁵ For to the pure, every thing is pure; but to them who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but their understanding is defiled, and their conscience.

¹¹ For the all-vivifying grace of God, is revealed to all men; ¹² and it teacheth us, to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and to live in this world in sobriety, and in uprightness, and in the fear of God, ¹³ looking for the blessed hope, and the manifestation of the glory of the great God, and our Life-giver, Jesus the Messiah; ¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might recover us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a new people, who are zealous in good works.

¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might recover us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a new people, who are zealous in good works.

²⁵ and he is able to vivify for ever, them who come to God by him; for he always liveth, and sendeth up prayers for them.

¹⁰ but they consisted only in food and drink, and in the ablutions of divers things; which were carnal ordinances, and were set up until the time of a reformation.

⁶ But, without faith, a man cannot please God. For he that draweth near to God, must believe his existence, and that he will recompense those who seek him.

² And let us look on Jesus, who hath become the commencement and the completion of our faith; who, on account of the joy there was for him, endured the cross, and surrendered himself to opprobrium; and is seated on the right hand of the throne of God.

¹³ and make straight paths for your feet, that the limb which is lame may not be wrenched, but may be healed. ¹⁴ Follow after peace with every man; and after holiness, without which a man will not see our Lord.

⁹ Be not led away by strange and variable doctrines. For it is a good thing, that we strengthen our hearts with grace, and not with meats; for those have not been benefited, who walked in them.

⁴ are ye not divided among yourselves, and become expositors of evil thoughts?

¹⁸ For a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works; show to me thy faith that is without works; and I will show to thee, my faith by my works. ¹⁹ Thou believest that there is one God; thou dost well; the demons also believe, and tremble. ²⁰ Wouldst thou know, O frail man, that faith without works is dead? ²¹ Abraham our father, was not he justified by works, in offering his son Isaac upon the altar? ²² Seest thou, that his faith aided his works; and that by the works his faith was rendered complete? ²³ And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith: Abraham believed in God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness, and he was called the Friend of God. ²⁴ Thou seest, that by works a man is justified, and not by faith alone. ²⁵ So also Rahab, the harlot, was not she justified by works, when she entertained the spies, and sent them forth by another way? ²⁶ As the body without the spirit, is dead; so faith without works, is dead also.

¹³ Who is wise and instructed among you? Let him show his works in praiseworthy actions, with modest wisdom.

¹³ Who is wise and instructed among you? Let him show his works in praiseworthy actions, with modest wisdom. ¹⁴ But if bitter envy be in you, or contention in your hearts, exalt not yourselves against the truth, and lie not. ¹⁵ For this wisdom cometh not down from above; but is earthly, and from the devices of the soul, and from demons. ¹⁶ For where envy and contention are, there also is confusion, and every thing wrong. ¹⁷ But the wisdom which is from above, is pure, and full of peace, and mild, and submissive, and full of compassion and of good fruits, and without partiality, and without respect of persons. ¹⁸ And the fruits of righteousness are sown in stillness, by them who make peace.

¹¹ Speak not against each other, my brethren; for he that speaketh against his brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law. And if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but its judge.

¹¹ Speak not against each other, my brethren; for he that speaketh against his brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law. And if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but its judge. ¹² There is one Law-giver and Judge, who can make alive, and can destroy: but who art thou, that thou judgest thy neighbor?

⁵ while ye are kept, by the power of God and by faith, for the life that is prepared and will be revealed in the last times;

⁸ whom having not seen, ye love; and in the faith of whom ye rejoice, with joy that is glorious and ineffable,

²¹ who, by means of him, have believed in God, who raised him from the dead and conferred glory on him; that your faith and hope might be in God,

⁵ And ye also, as living stones, are builded and become spiritual temples, and holy priests, for the offering of spiritual sacrifices, acceptable before God, through Jesus the Messiah.

²⁰ But they who endure afflictions on account of their offences, what praise have they? But if, when ye do well, they vex you, and ye endure it; then great is your praise with God.

¹¹ let him turn away from evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and follow after it.

¹⁶ in meekness and respect, as having a good conscience; so that they who speak against you as bad men, may be ashamed, for having calumniated your good conduct in the Messiah.

² that he may no longer be alive to the lusts of men, while he is in the body, but only to do the pleasure of God.

⁵ who must give account to God, who is to judge the living and the dead.

¹ SIMON PETER, a servant and legate of Jesus the Messiah, to those who have obtained equally precious faith with us, through the righteousness of Our Lord and Redeemer, Jesus the Messiah;

¹ But in the world, there have been also false prophets, as there will likewise be false teachers among you, who will bring in destructive heresies, denying the Lord that bought them; thus bringing on themselves swift destruction. ² For he is himself the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for all the world.

¹⁰ He that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and in him is no stumbling.

¹⁹ And by this, we recognize that we are of the truth; and, before he shall come, we make our hearts confident. ²⁰ But if our heart condemneth us, how much greater is God than our heart, and knowing all things? ²¹ My beloved, if our heart condemneth us not, we have open countenances before God.

²¹ My beloved, if our heart condemneth us not, we have open countenances before God.

¹⁵ Whoever confesseth Jesus to be the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he abideth in God.

⁷ Because many seducers have gone forth into the world, who confess not that Jesus the Messiah hath come in the flesh. This is a seducer and Antichrist.

¹⁰ If any one cometh to you, and bringeth not this doctrine, entertain him not in your house, nor say to him, Joy to thee:

⁸ We therefore ought to receive such persons, that we may be aiders of the truth. ⁹ I was desirous of writing to the church; but he who loveth to be foremost among them, Diotrephes, receiveth us not. ¹⁰ Therefore, if he come, remember those his doings, that he treated us with malignant words; and this not sufficing him, he received not the brethren; and those who would receive them, he prohibited, and even ejected them from the church.

¹⁴ And of them also prophesied Enoch, who was the seventh from Adam, when he said: Behold, the Lord cometh, with myriads of his saints; ¹⁵ to execute judgment upon all; and to convict all the wicked, because of all the deeds they have wickedly committed; and because of all the hard speeches, which they, ungodly sinners, have uttered.

²⁴ And to him who is able to preserve you faultless, and spotless, and to establish you without a blemish,

¹⁸ and who liveth and was dead; and behold, I am alive for ever and ever. Amen. And I have the keys of death and of the unseen world.

⁸ And to the angel of the church which is at Smyrna, write: These things saith the First and the Last, he who was dead, and liveth.

¹⁴ Yet I have a small charge against thee. Thou hast there them who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling-block before the children of Israel, that they might eat the sacrifices of idols, and might commit whoredom.

¹⁴ And the four Animals said: Amen. And the Elders fell down, and adored.

¹³ And I heard a voice from heaven, saying: Write, Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, henceforth: yes, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their toils; for their deeds do accompany them.

¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and Him who sitteth thereon; from whose presence the earth and heaven fled away, and this their place was not found. ¹² And I saw the dead, great and small standing before the throne; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged from the things written in the books, according to their deeds. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead in it; and death and the grave gave up the dead in them. And they were judged, each one according to his deeds. ¹⁴ And death and the grave were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, namely, this lake of fire. ¹⁵ And if any one was not found enrolled in the book of life, he was cast into this lake of fire.
