Romans 1:16-20 (esv), 16.For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17.For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” 18.For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19.For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20.For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 37. Romans 10:17 (esv), 17.So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. 38.

Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18.who have swerved from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already happened. They are upsetting the faith of some. 19.But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.” 20.Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. 40. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (esv), 16.All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17.that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. 41. 2 Timothy 4:1-7 (esv), 1.I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: 2.preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3.For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4.and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5.As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. 6.For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7.I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 42. Hebrews 4:12-14 (esv), 12.For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13.And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. 14.Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 43. James 1:22-25 (esv), 22.But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23.For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24.For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25.But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing. 44. 1 Peter 1:23 (esv), 23.since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; 45. 1 Peter 2:2-3 (esv), 2.Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3.if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. 46. 2 Peter 3:15-16 (esv), 15.And count the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given him, 16.as he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures. 47. Revelation 22:18-19 (esv), 18.I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, 19.and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book. |
