22 Since Jews indeed ask for signs, and Greeks seek wisdom;
23 but *we* preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness;
24 but to those that {are} called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom.
2 proclaim the word; be urgent in season {and} out of season, convict, rebuke, encourage, with all longsuffering and doctrine.
30 And Philip, running up, heard him reading the prophet Esaias, and said, Dost thou then know what thou art reading of?
31 And he said, How should I then be able unless some one guide me? And he begged Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 And the passage of the scripture which he read was this: He was led as a sheep to slaughter, and as a lamb is dumb in presence of him that shears him, thus he opens not his mouth.
14 How then shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without one who preaches?
15 and how shall they preach unless they have been sent? according as it is written, How beautiful the feet of them that announce glad tidings of peace, of them that announce glad tidings of good things!
16 But they have not all obeyed the glad tidings. For Esaias says, Lord, who has believed our report?
17 So faith then {is} by a report, but the report by God's word.
16 For I am not ashamed of the glad tidings; for it is God's power to salvation, to every one that believes, both to Jew first and to Greek:
17 for righteousness of God is revealed therein, on the principle of faith, to faith: according as it is written, But the just shall live by faith.
4 But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which goes out through God's mouth.
11 And these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, receiving the word with all readiness of mind, daily searching the scriptures if these things were so.
21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.
35 And Philip, opening his mouth and beginning from that scripture, announced the glad tidings of Jesus to him.
10 For Ezra had directed his heart to seek the law of Jehovah and to do it, and to teach in Israel the statutes and the ordinances.
12 For the word of God {is} living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to {the} division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of {the} heart.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.
6 I wonder that ye thus quickly change, from him that called you in Christ's grace, to a different gospel,
7 which is not another {one}; but there are some that trouble you, and desire to pervert the glad tidings of the Christ.
8 But if even *we* or an angel out of heaven announce as glad tidings to you {anything} besides what we have announced as glad tidings to you, let him be accursed.
9 As we have said before, now also again I say, If any one announce to you as glad tidings {anything} besides what ye have received, let him be accursed.
4 For as many things as have been written before have been written for our instruction, that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.
8 And the word of Jehovah came unto Zechariah, saying,
17 Sanctify them by the truth: thy word is truth.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 so shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall do that which I please, and it shall accomplish that for which I send it.
18 *I* testify to every one who hears the words of the prophecy of this book, If any one shall add to these things, God shall add to him the plagues which are written in this book.
19 And if any one take from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.
9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his path? by taking heed according to thy word.
160 The sum of thy word is truth, and every righteous judgment of thine is for ever.
8 And the word of Jehovah came to him saying,
39 Ye search the scriptures, for ye think that in them ye have life eternal, and they it is which bear witness concerning me;
19 And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
12 But *we* have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which {is} of God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of God:
13 which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, communicating spiritual {things} by spiritual {means}.
14 But {the} natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him; and he cannot know {them} because they are spiritually discerned;
17 For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain.
1 The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me, because Jehovah hath anointed me to announce glad tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, that beauty should be given unto them instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of the spirit of heaviness: that they might be called terebinths of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.
25 but the word of {the} Lord abides for eternity. But this is the word which in the glad tidings {is} preached to you.
15 and that from a child thou hast known the sacred letters, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation, through faith which {is} in Christ Jesus.
16 Every scripture {is} divinely inspired, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
17 that the man of God may be complete, fully fitted to every good work.
1 The word of Jehovah that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
15 Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line the word of truth.
18 And Jesus coming up spoke to them, saying, All power has been given me in heaven and upon earth.
19 Go {therefore} and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;
20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have enjoined you. And behold, *I* am with you all the days, until the completion of the age.
25 And *he* said to them, O senseless and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
26 Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into his glory?
27 And having begun from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
4 And the word of Jehovah came to Isaiah, saying,
1 The burden of the word of Jehovah to Israel by Malachi.
35 The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall in no wise pass away.
2 And according to Paul's custom he went in among them, and on three sabbaths reasoned with them from the scriptures,
3 opening and laying down that the Christ must have suffered and risen up from among the dead, and that this is the Christ, Jesus whom *I* announce to you.
13 Till I come, give thyself to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.
16 Every scripture {is} divinely inspired, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
17 that the man of God may be complete, fully fitted to every good work.
5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
20 knowing this first, that {the scope of} no prophecy of scripture is had from its own particular interpretation,
21 for prophecy was not ever uttered by {the} will of man, but holy men of God spake under the power of {the} Holy Spirit.
15 and account the longsuffering of our Lord {to be} salvation; according as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him,
16 as also in all {his} epistles, speaking in them of these things; among which some things are hard to be understood, which the untaught and ill-established wrest, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
