3 But let not fornication, or any uncleanness, or covetousness be even named among you, as becometh saints:
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 But as he who hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation:
16 For it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
3 But let not fornication, or any uncleanness, or covetousness be even named among you, as becometh saints:
9 not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus, before the world began;
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication;
4 That every one of you know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in passionate desire, as the Gentiles who know not God.
6 That none circumvent or defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger of all these things, as we have also told you before and testified.
7 For God hath not called us to uncleanness, but to holiness.
4 As he hath chosen us through him, before the foundation of the world, that we might be holy and blameless before him in love,
22 concerning your former conversation, the old man, which is corrupt, according to the deceitful desires:
23 To be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And to put on the new man, which is created after God, in righteousness and true holiness.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus,
15 But as he who hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation:
16 For it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
2 and Sosthenes a brother, To the church of God, which is in Corinth, to them that are sanctified through Christ Jesus, called and holy, with all that in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:
48 Therefore ye shall be perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
16 Know ye not, that ye are the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
1 Having therefore, beloved, these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from all pollution of the flesh and of the spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
17 Sanctify them thro' the truth: thy word is truth.
16 No man having lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
1 Having therefore, beloved, these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from all pollution of the flesh and of the spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them who cause divisions and offences, contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned, and avoid them.
21 And you that were once alienated, and enemies in your mind by wicked works,
22 he hath now reconciled, By the body of his flesh, through death, to present you holy, and spotless, and unreproveable in his sight:
23 If ye continue in the faith, grounded and settled, and are not removed from the hope of the gospel which ye have heard, which is preached to every creature that is under heaven, whereof I Paul am made a minister.
1 If there be then any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies; Fulfil ye my joy,
2 that ye think the same thing, having the same love, being of one soul, of one mind.
3 Do nothing through strife or vain-glory, but in lowliness of mind, esteem each the others better than themselves.
4 Look not every one at his own things, but every one also at the things of others.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus,
6 Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God;
7 Yet emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above every name,
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee might bow, of those in heaven, and those on earth, and those under the earth:
11 And every tongue might confess, that Jesus Christ is Lord in the glory of God the Father.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but much more now in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God that worketh in you according to his good pleasure, both to will and to do.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and simple, the sons of God, unrebukable, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world,
16 Holding fast the word of life, that I may glory in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy and rejoice with you all.
18 For the same cause joy ye likewise, and rejoice with me.
19 Now I trust in the Lord Jesus, to send Timotheus to you shortly, that I also may be encouraged, when I know your state.
20 For I have none like-minded, who will naturally care for what concerneth you.
21 For all seek their own, not the things of Christ.
22 But ye know the proof of him, that as a son with his father, he hath served with me in the gospel.
23 Him therefore I hope to send, as soon as ever I know how it will go with me.
24 But I trust in the Lord, that I also myself shall come shortly.
25 Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and companion in labour and fellow-soldier, but your messenger, and him that ministered to my need.
26 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because ye had heard that he was sick.
27 He was indeed sick nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me likewise, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
28 I have sent him therefore the more willingly, that ye seeing him again may rejoice, and that I also may be the less sorrowful.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness, and honour such.
30 Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his own life, to supply your deficiency of service toward me.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
19 I speak as a man, because of the weakness of your flesh. As ye have presented your members servants to uncleanness and iniquity, unto iniquity, so now present your members servants of righteousness, unto holiness.
1 I exhort you therefore, brethren, by the tender mercies of God, to present your bodies unto God, a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable, which is your reasonable service.
