PKEFACE.

This work, it is believed, will be- found to differ materially from any Cyclo
pedia, Dictionary, or Index to the Holy Scriptures hitherto published : its
title, ' The Bible Text Cyclopedia ; beino a Complete Classification of
Scripture Texts, in the form of an Alphabetical Index of Subjects,'
distinctly expresses its character. The following is the general plan which
has been observed in its preparation :
1. Every subject will be found in it which has a place in the Sacred
Volume, whether Doctrinal, Devotional, Practical, Ecclesiastical, Historical,
Biographical, or Secular. The name of every person and place connected
with any historical event is given, but where such names occur only in
Topographical or Genealogical Tables they are omitted. Among the subjects
are s,ome of considerable importance which do not appear in any other
Cyclopedia. 2. 'The Author has attempted to discover every text of Scripture belong
ing to each topic. Eor this purpose, the whole Bible was formally indexed,
verse by verse, and clause by clause, with repeated revision. The Texts
thus obtained, amounting to many thousands, were then arranged under
their respective heads, and omissions, to some extent, supplied from
Concordances, Scripture Text-Books, and similar publications. In this
work, the Author has employed his leisure hours for more than seven
years. He cannot expect that he has been perfectly successful, as an
absolutely complete collection of Scripture passages on every topic is
scarcely attainable ; but the utmost care has been taken to secure fulness
and accuracy, and to make the book a Complete, as it is an Original, Index
to the Holy Bible.
On such topics as Baptism and Church-government, the texts are
arranged under their titles without any minor divisions; but on the
great Doctrinal Questions, such a system was neither possible nor desirable,
as no faithful Index to the "Word of God could be made, unless prominence
were given to the Supreme Divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His death for
sinners, and similar doctrines.
The texts on Doctrinal, Devotional, and Practical subjects are quoted in
full, and are followed by illustrative cases : these are arranged under the

Jv PKEFACE.
headings 'Exemplified,' in which the passages are quoted; and 'Examples,'
when there is merely a reference.
Examples of the Figurative and Symbolical use of certain words, such as
Day, Night, Darkness, Dove, Lion, are appended to them; but it has not
been thought necessary to refer to every instance, as they may easily be
found in a Concordance.
3. The subjects are arranged Alphabetically, to facilitate reference. No
general titles, such as History, Geography, Botany, occur in the work. To
find the History ofthe Israelites, the reader will examine the title Israelites;
and every plant, tree, or flower, will be found under its own name. The
same rule applies to all other subjects.
At the close of many of the Heads, references are given to similar and
opposite subjects in other parts of the work. Thus, there is a reference from
Regeneration to Sanctification, from Integrity to Dishonesty, and from
Masters to Servants.
In the choice of Titles to the different topics — a task which occasioned
much thought and anxiety — regard has been had both to appropriateness and
practical utility, that Title being preferred which would most naturally occur
to a reader. At the same time, various Titles are given to aid in discovering
any subject of which a person may be in search.
Numerous subdivisions have been carefully avoided, as the quotation of
the passages of Scripture in full renders them unnecessary ; and it would
have been impossible to make each minor division complete without repeat
ing the same text a great many times under each general head, thereby
increasing the size of the volume without any corresponding advantage. Eor
practical purposes, it is believed the present arrangement will be found the
most useful.
An abstract of the Doctrinal and Practical Subjects in the work, Alpha
betically arranged, with the Pages at which they will be found, has been
appended at the close of the volume.
4. In some instances the original Hebrew and Greek are given, when
necessary to the understanding of the texts ; and a short explanation, with
the same view, is made occasionally of Greek and Hebrew words.
In the belief that the Scriptures are the fountain-head of all spiritual
knowledge, and the ultimate standard of truth and duty, this work is now
published, with the hope that it may direct inquirers to the springs of eternal
life, and aid them in modelling their faith and practice by the Word of
God. 'All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good
works.' Johnstone, 1st December 1860.

come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye
would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the
Father : for niy Father is greater than I.
Jno. 16.5. Now I go my way to him that
sent me. 7. It is expedient for you that I go
away : for if I go not away, the Comforter will
not come unto you ; but if I depart, I will send
him unto you. 10. I go to my Father, and ye
see me no more.
Jno. 16.16. A little while, and ye shall not
see me : and again, a little while, and ye shall
see me, because I go to the Father. 25. The
time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto
you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly
of the Father. 28. I came forth from the
Father, and am come into the world : again, I
leave the world, and go to the Father.
Jno. 17.6. Now, O Father, glorify thou me
with thine own self with the glory which I had
with thee before the world was.
Jno. 20.17. Touch me not ; for I am not yet
ascended to my Father : but go to my brethren,

of whom are all things, and we in him ; and

Col. 1.16. By him were all things created,
that are in heaven, and that are in earth,
visible and invisible, whether they be thrones,
or dominions, or principalities, or powers : all
things were created by him, and for him:
17. And he is before all things, and by him all
things consist.
Heb. 1. 2. His Son, whom he hath appointed
heir of all things, by whom also he made the
worlds, v. 3, compare Gen. 1.26.

it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise
his heel.
Isa. 63.4. Surely he hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows : yet we did esteem
him stricken smitten of God, and afflicted.
5. But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities : the chastise

his stripes we are healed. 6. All we like sheep
have gone astray ; we have turned every one
to his own way ; and the Lord hath laid on
him the iniquity of us all. 8. He was cut off
out of the land of the living : for the transgres
sion of my people was he stricken.
Isa. 53. 10. It pleased the Lord to bruise him ;
he hath put him to grief : when thou shalt make
his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his
seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure
of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. 11. He
shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall
be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righte
ous servant justify many; for he shall bear their
iniquities. 12. Therefore will I divide him a
portion with the great, and he shall divide the
spoil with the strong ; because he hath poured
out his soul unto death : and he was numbered
with the transgressors ; and he bare the sin of
many, and made intercession for the trans
gressors, v. 1-12.

This is my body which is given for you : this

you. Luk. 24. 26. Ought not Christ to have suffered
these things, and to enter into his glory ?
Jno. 1.29. Behold the Lamb of God, which
taketh away the sin of the world.
Jno. 3.14. As Moses lifted up the serpent
in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man
be lifted up: 15. That whosoever believeth
in him should not perish, but have eternal
life. 16. For God so loved the world, that he
gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life. 17. For God sent not his Son
into the world to condemn the world ; but
that the world through him might be saved.

flesh, which I will give for the life of the
world. "
Jno. 10.11. The good shepherd giveth his
life for the sheep. 15. I lay down my life for
the sheep, 17. Therefore doth my Father love
me, because I lay down my life, that I inight
take it again.
Jno. 11.50. It is expedient for us, that one
man should die for the people, and that the
whole nation perish not. 51. Jesus should die
for that nation ; 52. And not for that nation
only, but that also he should gather together
in one the children of God that were scattered
abroad. Jno. 12.24. Except a corn of wheat fall into
the ground and die, it abideth alone : but if it
die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 31. Now is

unto me. 33. This he said, signifying what

tiation through faith in his blodd, to declara
his righteousness for the remission of sins that
are past, through the forbearance of God.
Rom. 4.25. Who was delivered for^our
offences, and was raised again for our justifi
cation. Rom. 5.6. When we were yet without
strength, in due time Christ died for tbe
ungodly. 7. Scarcely for a righteous man will
one die: yet peradventure for a good man
some would even dare to die. 8. But God
commendeth his love toward us, in that, while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9.
Much more then, being now justified by his
blood, we shall be saved from wrath through
him. 10. For if, when we were enemies, we
were reconciled to God by the death of his
Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be
saved by his life. 11. We also joy in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we
have now received the atonement.
Rom. 6. 3. Know ye not, that so many of
us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were
baptized into his death ? 4. Therefore we are
buried with him by baptism into death ; that
like as Christ was raised up from the dead by
the glory of the Father, even so we also should
walk in newness of life. 5. For if we have
been planted together in the likeness of his
death, we shall be also in the likeness of his
resurrection. 9. Christ being raised from the
dead dieth no more ; death hath no more
dominion over him. 10. For in that he died,
he died unto sin once.
Rom. 8.3. God sending his own Son in the
likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned
sin in the flesh. 32. He that spared not his
own son, but delivered him up for us all, how
shall he not with him also freely give us all
things ? 34. Who is he that condemneth ? It
is Christ that died. 39. Nor height, nor
depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to
separate us from the love of God, which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord.
Rom. 14.9. To this end Christ both died,
and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord
both of the dead and living. 15. Destroy not
him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

therefore glorify God in your body, and in
your spirit, which are God's.
1 Cor. 8.11. Through thy knowledge shall
the weak brother porish, for whom Christ
died? 1 Cor. 15.3. Christ died for our sins ac
cording .to the scriptures.
2 Cor. 5.14. The love of Christ constraineth
us ; because we thus judge, that if one died for
all, then were all dead : 15. And tliat he died
for alL that they which live should not hence
forth live unto themselves, but unto him which
died for them, and rose again. 19. God was
in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself,
not imputing their trespasses unto them ; and
hath committed unto us the word of reconci
liation. 21. He hath made him to be sin for
us, who knew no sin ; that we might be made
the righteousness of God in him.
2 Cor. 8.9. Ye know the grace of our Lord
Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for
your sakes he became poor, that ye through

CHRIST, DEATH OF

gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver
us from this present evil world, according to
the will of God and our Father.
Gal. 2.20. I am crucified with Christ:
nevertheless I live ; yet not I, but Christ liveth
in me : and the life which I now live in the
flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God.
Gal. 3.13. Christ hath redeemed us from
the curse of the law, being made a curse for
us : for it is written, Cursed is every one that
hangeth on a tree.
Gal. 4.4. When the fulness of the time was
come, God sent forth his Son, made of a
woman, made under the law, 5. To redeem
them that were under the law, that we might
receive the adoption of sons.

beloved. 7. In whom we have redemption
through his blood, the forgiveness of sins,
according to the riches of his grace.
Eph. 2.13. Now in Christ Jesus ye who
sometimes were far off are made nigh by the
blood of Christ. 14. He is our peace, who
hath made both one, and hath broken down
the middle wall of partition between us; 15.
Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even
the law of commandments contained in ordi
nances ; for to make in himself of twain one
new man, so making peace ; 16. And that he
might reconcile both unto God in one body by
the cross, having slain the enmity thereby.
Eph. 5.2. Christ also hath loved us, and
hath given himself for us an offering and a
sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour.
25. Christ also loved the church, and gave
himself for it ; 26. That he might sanctify and
cleanse it with the washing of water by the
word ; 27. That he might present it to him
self a glorious church, not having spot, or
wrinkle, or any such thing ; but that it should
be holy and without blemish.
Col. 1.14. In whom we have redemption
through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.
20. Having made peace through the blood of
his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto
himself ; by him, I say, whether they be things
in earth, or things in heaven. 21. Now hath
he reconciled, 22. In the body of his flesh
through death, to present you holy and un-
blameable and unreproveable in his sight.
Col. 2.14. Blotting out the handwriting of
ordinances that was against us, which was
contrary to us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross ; 15. And having spoiled
principalities and powers, he made a show of
them openly, triumphing over them in it.
1 The. 1.10. Jesus, which delivered us from
the wrath to come.
1 The. 5.9. God hath not appointed us to
wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord
Jesus Christ, 10. Who died for us, that,
whether we wake or sleep, we should live
together with him.
1 Tim. 2.6, Who gave himself a ransom for
all, to be testified in due time.
Tit. 2.14. Who gave himself for us, that
he might redeem us from all iniquity, and
purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous
of good works.
Heb. 1.3. When he had by himself purged
our sins.
Heb. 2.9. We see Jesus, who was made a
little lower than the angels for the suffering of

CHRIST, DEATH OF
death, crowned with glory and honour ; that
he by the grace of God should taste death for
every man. 10. To make the captain of their
salvation perfect through sufferings. 14. Aa
the children are partakers of flesh and blood,
he also himself likewise took part of the same ;
that through death he might destroy him that
had the power of death, that is, the devil ;
15. And deliver them who through fear of
death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
18. In that he himself hath suffered being
tempted, he is able to succour them that are
tempted. Heb. 7.27. Who needeth not daily, as thosp
high-priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his
own sins, and then for the people's : for this
he did once, when he offered up himself.
Heb. 9.12. Neither by the blood of goats
and calves, but by his own blood he entered in
once into the holy place, having obtained
eternal redemption for us. 13. For if the
blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of
an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to
the purifying of the flesh : 14. How much
more shall the blood of Christ, who through
the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot
to God, purge your conscience from dead
works to serve the living God? 15. And for
this cause he is the mediator of the new
testament, that by means of death, for the
redemption of the transgressions that were
under the first testament, they which are
called might receive the promise of eternal
inheritance. Heb. 9.16. For where a testament is, there
must also of necessity be the death of the
testator. 17. For a testament is of force after
men are dead : otherwise it is of no strength
at all while the testator liveth. 25. Nor
yet that he should offer himself often, as the
high-priest entereth into the holy place every
year with blood of others ; 26. For then must
he often have suffered since the foundation of
the world : but now once in the end of the
world hath he appeared to put away sin by the
sacrifice of himself, 28. Christ was once offered
to bear the sins of many
Heb. 10.10. We are sanctified thrdugh the
offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for
all. 12. This man, after he had offered one
sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the
right hand of God. 14. By one offering he
hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
17. Their sins and iniquities will I remember
no more. 18. Now where remission of these
is, there is no more offering for sin. 19. Having
therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the
holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20. By a new
and living way, which he hath consecrated for
us, through the vail, that is to say, his flesh. .
Heb. 12.2. Who for the joy that was set
before him endured the cross, despising the
shame, and is set down at the right hand of
the throne of God. 24. To Jesus the mediator
of the new covenant, and to the blood of
sprinkling, that speaketh better things than
that o/Abel.
Heb. 13.11. The bodies of those beasts,
whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by
the high-priest for sin, are burned without the
camp. 12. Wherefore Jesus also, that he
might sanctify the people with his own blood,
suffered without the gate.
1 Pet. 1.2. Elect according to the fore;

CHRIST, DEATH OF
knowledge of God the Father, through sancti
fication of the Spirit, unto obedience and
sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ. 18.
Ye know that ye were not redeemed with
corruptible things, as silver and gold, from
your vain .conversation received by tradition
from your fathers ; 19. But with the precious
blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish
and without spot : 20. Who verily was fore
ordained before the foundation of the world,
but was manifest in these last times for you,
21. Who by him do believe in God, that raised
him up from the dead, and gave hi™ glory ;
that your faith and hope might be in God.
1 Pet. 2.21. Christ also suffered for us,
leaving us an example, that ye should follow
his steps : 24: Who his own self bare our sins
in his own body on the tree, that we, being
dead to sins, should live unto righteousness : by
whose stripes ye were healed.

for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might
bring us to God, being put to death in the

the flesh.

of God, because he laid down his life for us.
1 Jno. 4.10. Herein is love, not that we
loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his
Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Rev. 1.5. Unto him that loved us, and
washed us from our sins in his own blood,

God and his Father.
Rev. 5.9. Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed
us to God by thy blood out of every kindred,
and tongue, and people, and nation ; 10. And
hast made us unto our God kings and priests :
and we shall reign on the earth.
Rev. 7.14. These are they which came out
of great tribulation, and have washed their

perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that

having obtained eternal redemption for us.

the redemption of the transgressions that were
under the first testament, they which are called
might receive the promise of eternal inherit
ance. Heb. 9.24. Christ is not entered into the

and his whole house.
Jno. 6.14. When they had seen the miracle
that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that
Prophet that should come into the world.
Jno. 7.3. His brethren therefore said unto

thy disciples also may see the works that thou
doest 4. For there is no man that doeth any
thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be
known openly. If thou do these things, shew
thyself to the world. 5. For neither did his
brethren believe in him. 12. There was much
murmuring among the people concerning him :

Nay ; but he deceiveth the people.
Jno. 7.13. Howbeit no man spake openly of
him for fear of the Jews. 15. The Jews mar

them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they
seek to kill? 26. But, lo, he speaketh boldly,
and they say nothing unto him. Do the
rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ ?

but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth
whence he is.
Jno, 7.31. Many'of the people believed on
him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he
do more miracles than these which this man
hath done? 40. Many of the people therefore,
when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth
this is the Prophet. 41. Others said, This is
the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come
out of Galilee? 42. Hath not the scripture
said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David,
and out of the town of Bethlehem, where
David was? 43. So there was a division
among the people because of him. 44. And
some of them would have taken him ; but no

is not true. 22. Then said the Jews, Will he
kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go,
ye cannot come. 30. As he spake these words,
many believed on him. 53. Art thou greater
than our father Abraham, which is dead ? and
the prophets are dead: whom makest thou
thyself ?
Jno. 9.16. Said some of the Pharisees, This
man is not of God, because he keepeth not the
sabbath day. Others said, How can a man
that is a sinner do such miracles ? And there
was a division among them. 17. They say
unto the blind man again, What sayest thou
of him, that he hath opened thine eyes ? He
said, He is a prophet. 24. Give God the
praise : we know that this man is a sinner.
25. He answered and said, Whether he be a
sinner or no, I know not : one thing I know,
that, whereas I was blind, now I see. 29. We
know that God spake unto Moses : as for this
fellow, we know not from whence he is. 30.
Ye know not from whence he is, and yet he
hath opened mine eyes. 33. If this man were
not of God, he could do nothing.
Jno. 10.20. Many of them said, He hath
a devil, and is mad ; why hear ye him ?
21. Others said, These are not the words of
'him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the
eyes of the blind ? 24. How long dost thou
make us to doubt ? If thou be the Christ, tell
us plainly. 32. For a good work we stone
thee not ; but for blasphemy ; and because
that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
41. Many resorted unto him, and said, John
did no miracle : but all things that John spake
of this man were true. 42. And many believed
on him there.
Jno. 11.37. Some of them said, Could not
this man, which opened the eyes of the blind,
have caused that even this man should not
have died ? 45. Many of the Jews which came
to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus
did, believed on him. 46. But some of them
went their ways to the Pharisees, and told
them what things Jesus had done. 47. Then
gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a
council, and said, What do we? for this man
doeth many miracles. 48. If we let him thus
alone, all men will believe on him.
Jno. 12.9. Much people of the Jews there
fore knew that he was there : and they came
not for Jesus' sake only. 11. By reason of
him many of the Jews went away, and believed
on Jesus. 18. For this cause the people also
met him, for that they heard that he had done
this miracle. 19. The Pharisees therefore said
among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail
nothing ? behold, the world is gone after him.
Jno. 12.20. There were certain Greeks among
them that came up to worship at the feast :
21. The same came therefore to Philip, which
was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him,
saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. 84. We have
heard out of the law that Christ abideth for
ever : and how sayest thou, The Son of man
must be lifted up ? who is this Son of man ?

before them, yet they believed not on him.

and know that this is indeed the Christ, the
Saviour of the world.

witness unto the truth. 36. I have greater
witness than that of John : for the works which

works that I do, bear witness of me, that the
Father hath sent me. 37. The Father himself,
which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me.
Ye have neither heard his voice at any time,
nor seen his shape. 39. Search the scriptures ;

dead, and should shew light unto the people,

that which I also received, how that Christ
died for our sins according to the scriptures.
1 Pet. 1.10. Of which salvation the prophets

prophesied of the grace thatshould come unto
you : 11. Searching what, or what manner of
time the Spirit of Christ which was in them
did signify, when it testified beforehand the
sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should
follow. 2 Pet. 1.16. We have not followed cunningly
devised fables, when we made known unto you
the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17. For he received from God the Father
honour and glory, when there came such a
voice to him from the excellent glory, This is
my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18. And this voice which came from heaven
we heard, when we were with him in the holy
mount. 1 Jno. 5.6. This is he that came by water
and blood, even Jesus Christ ; not by water
only, but by water and blood. And it is the
Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit
is truth. 7. There are three that bear record
in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the
Holy Ghost : and these three are one. 8. And
there are three that bear witness in earth, the
spirit, and the water, and the blood: and
these three agree in one. 9. If we receive the
witness of men, the witness of God is greater :
for this is the witness of God which he hath
testified of his Son.

doeth : and he will shew him greater works
than these. 21. As the Father raiseth up the
dead, and quickeneth them ; even so the Son
quickeneth whom he wUL 23. All men should
honour the Son, even as they honour the
Father. He that honoureth not the Son,
honoureth not the Father which Hath sent
him. Jno. 5. 26. As the Father hath life in him
self ; so hath he given to the Son to have life
in himself ; 27. And hath given him authority
to execute judgment also, because he is the Son

as I hear, I judge : and my judgment is just ;

know that the witness which he witnesseth of
me is true.

the living God.

neither know me, nor my Father : if ye had
known me, ye should have known my Father
also. 26. He that sent me is true ; and I speak
to the world those things which I have heard of
him. 28. When ye have lifted up the Son of
man, then shall ye know that I am he, and

hath taught me, I speak these things. 29. And
he that "sent me is with me: the Father hath
not left me alone ; fori do always those things
that please him.

neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
49. I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour

CHRIST SON OF GOD
me. 50. And I seek not mine own glory :
there is one that seeketh and judgeth. 54. If
I honour myself, my honour is nothing : it is
my Father that honoureth me ; of whom ye
say, that he is your God : 55. Yet ye have
not known him ; but I know him : and if I
should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar
like unto you : but I know him, and keep his
saying. Jno. 9.35. He said unto him, Dost thou
beheve on the Son of God ? 36. He answered
and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might be-
lieve^on him ? 37. Jesus said unto him, Thou
hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh
with thee.
Jno. 10.15. As the Father knoweth me, even
so know I the Father. 17. Therefore doth my
Father love me, because I lay down my life,
that I might take it again. 18. This command
ment have I received of my Father. 29. My
Father, which gave them me, is greater than
all ; and no man is able to pluck them out of
my Father's hand. 30. I and my Father are
one. Jno. 10.34. Is it not written in your law, I
said. Ye are gods? 35. If he called them gods,
unto whom the word of God came, and the
scripture cannot be broken; 36. Say ye of
him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and
sent into the world, Thou blasphemest ; be
cause I said, I am the Son of God ? 37. If I do
not the works of my Father, beheve me not.
38. But if I do, though ye believe not me,
believe the works : that ye may know, and
believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
Jno. 11.41. Father, I thank thee that thou
hast heard me. 42. And I knew that thou
hearest me always : but because of the people
which stand by I said it, that they may believe
that thou hast sent me.
Jno. 12.49. I have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me, he gave me a
commandment, what I should say, and what I
should speak. 50. And I know that his com
mandment is life everlasting : whatsoever I
¦ speak therefore, even as the Father said unto
me, so I speak.
Jno. 13.3. Jesus knowing that the Father
had given all things into his hands, and that
he was come from God, and went to God.
31. Now is the Son of man glorified, and God
is glorified in him. 12. If God be glorified in
him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and
shall straightway glorify him.
Jno. 14.7- H ye had known me, ye should
have known my Father also : and from hence
forth ye know him, and have seen him. 14.
He that hath seen me hath seen the Father ;
and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
10. Believest thou not that I am in the Father,
and the Father in me? the words that I speak
unto you I speak not of myself : but the Father
that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11. Beheve me that I am in the Father, and
the Father in me.
Jno. 14.13. Whatsoever ye shall ask in my
name, that will I do, that the Father may be
glorified in the Son. 16. I will pray the Father,
and he shall gite you another Comforter, that
he may abide with you for ever. 20. At that
day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and
ye in me, and I in you. 24. The word which
ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which
sent me. 28. L? ye loved me, ye would rejoice,

CHRIST SON OF GOD
because I said, I go unto the Father : for my
Father is greater than I. 31. That the world
may know that I love the Father ; and as the
Father gave me commandment, even so I do.
Jno. 15.1. I am the true vine, and my
Father is the husbandman. 9. As the Father
hath loved me, so have I loved you. 10. I
have kept my Father's commandments, and
abide in his love. 23. He that hateth me hateth
my Father also. 24. Now have they both seen
and hated both me and my Father.
Jno. 16.5. I go my way to him that sent
me. 15. All things that the Father hath are
mine. 27. The Father himself loveth you,
because ye have loved me, and have believed
that I came out from God. 28. I came forth
from the Father, and am come into the world :
again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
32. I am not alone, because the Father is
with me.
Jno. 17.1. Father, the hour is come ; glorify
thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee.
v. 1-26.
Jno. 20.17. I am not yet ascended to my
Father : but go to my brethren, and say unto

not silent.

would deliver him : let him deliver him,
seeing he delighted in him. 11. Be not far
from me ; for trouble is near ; for there is none
to help. 12. Many bulls have compassed me :

hast brought me into the dust of death. 16.

of the wicked have inclosed me : they pierced
my hands and my feet.
Psa. 22.17. I may tell all my bones : they
look and stare upon me. 18. They part my
garments among them, and cast lots upon my
vesture. 19. But be not thou far from me, 0

thee are fallen upon me. 20. Reproach hath
broken my heart ; and I am full of heaviness :

was none ; and for comforters, but I found

and rejected of men ; a man of sorrows, and
acquainted with grief : and we hid as it were

esteemed him not. 4. Surely he hath borne
our griefs, and carried our sorrows : yet we

transgressions, he was bruised for our iniqui
ties : the chastisement of our peace was upon

opened not his mouth : he is brought as a
lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before
her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his
mouth. Isa. 53.8. He was taken from prison and
from judgment: and who shall declare his
generation ? for he was cut off out of the land
of the living: for the transgression of my
people was he stricken. 9. And he made his

former prophets : therefore came a great wrath
from the Lord of hosts. 13. Therefore it is

Rom. 4.13. The promise, that he should be
the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or

it might be by grace ; to the end the promise
might be sure to all the seed ; not to that only
which is of the law, but to that also which is
of the faith of Abraham ; who is the father of
us all. 20. He staggered not at the promise of
God through unbelief ; but was strong in faith,
giving glory to God ; 21. And being fully per
suaded that, what he had promised, he was
able also to perform. 22. And therefore it was
imputed to him for righteousness. 24. To

tification. 17. For if by one man's offence
death reigned by one ; much more they which
receive abundance of grace, and of the gift of
righteousness, shall reign in life by one, Jesus
Christ. Rom. 6.18. Therefore, as by the offence of
one judyment came upon all men to condemna
tion ; even so by the righteousness of one the
free gift came upon all men unto justification
of life. 21. That as sin hath reigned unto
death, even so might grace reign through
righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ
our Lord. v. 12-21.
Rom. 7.4. Ye also are become dead to the

demnation to them which are in Christ Jesus,
who walk not after the flesh, but after the
Spirit. 30. Whom he called, them he also
justified ; and whom he justified, them he also
glorified. 31. What shall we then say to these
things ? If God be for us, who can be against
us ? 33. Who shall lay any thing to the charge
of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34. Who is he that condemneth ? It is Christ
that died, yea rather, that is risen again.
Rom. 9.30. The Gentiies, which followed
not after righteousness, have attained to right
eousness, even the righteousness which is of
faith. 31. Israel, which followed after the law
of righteousness, hath not attained to the law
of righteousness. 32. Wherefore? Because

Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that
God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt

1 Cor. 1.30. Christ, who of God is mode

of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our
God. 2 Cor. 5.19. God was in Christ, reconciling

God in him.
Gal. 2.16. A man is not justified by the
works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus
Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ,

God would justify the heathen through faith,

law given which could have given life, verily
righteousness should have been by the law.
22. But the scripture hath concludad all under
sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ
might be given to Lhem that beheve. 24. The
law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto
Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Gal. 4.21-31.
Gal. 5.4. Christ is become of no effect unto
you, whosoever of you are justified by the law ;
ye are fallen from grace. 6. For we through
the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness
by faith. 6. For in Jesus Christ neither cir
cumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircum-
cision ; but faith which worketh by love.
Eph. 6.14. Having on the breastplate of
righteousness. Phil. 3.9. Be found in him, not having
mine own righteousness, which is of the law,
but that which is through the faith of Christ,
the righteousness which is of God by faith.
Col. 2.14. Blotting out the handwriting of
ordinances that was against us, which was
contrary to us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross.
Tit. 3.7. Being justified by his grace, we
should be made heirs according to the hope of
eternal life.
Heb. 11.4. By faith Abel offered unto God
a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which
he obtained witness that he was righteous, God
testifying of his gifts. 7. By faith Noah, being
warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved
with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his
house ; by the which he condemned the world,
and became heir of the righteousness which is
by faith.
Jas. 2.20. Faith without works is dead.
21. Was not Abraham our father justified by
works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon
the altar ? 22. Seest thou how faith wrought
with his works, and by works was faith made
perfect ? 23. And the scripture was fulfilled
which saith, Abraham believed God, and it
was imputed unto him for righteousness : and
he was called the Friend of God. 26. For as

the body without the spirit is dead, so faith
without works is dead also.

commanded our fathers, that they should make
them known to their, children. 7. That they
might set their hope in God, and not forget the
works of God, but keep his commandments.
Jer. 3.16. In those days, saith the Lord, they
shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of
the Lord: neither shall it come to mind:
neither shall they remember it ; neither shall
they visit it.
Eze. 20.11. I gave them my_ statutes, and
shewed them my judgments, which if a man
do, he shaU even live in them. v. 25.
Dan. 9.27. He shall confirm the covenant
with many for one week : and in the midst of
the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the
oblation to cease, v. 24-27.
Hos. 8.12. I have written to him the great
things of my law.
Mat. 5.17. Think not that I am come to de
stroy the law, or the prophets : I am not come
to destroy, but to fulfil, v. 18.
Mat. 19.8. Moses because of the hardness
of your hearts suffered you to put away your
wives. Luk. 10.24. Many prophets and kings have
desired to see those things which ye see, and
have not seen them ; and to hear those things
which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Luk. 16.16. The law and the prophets were
until John.
Jao. 1. 17. The law was given by Moses, but
grace and truth came by Jestis Christ.
Jno. 4.21. The hour cometh, when ye shall
neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem,
worship the Father.

LAW
Jno. 8.35. The servant abideth not In the
house for ever : but the Son abideth ever.
Act. 3.25. The covenant which God made
with our fathers.
Act. 10.28. Ye know how that it is an un
lawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep
company, or come unto one of another nation ;
but God hath shewed me that I should not call
any man common or unclean, v. 9-28.
Act. 13.39. By him all that beheve are jus
tified from all things, from which ye could not
be justified by the law of Moses.
Act. 16,10. Why tempt ye God, toputayoke
upon the neck of the -disciples, which neither
our fathers noi we were able to bear ?
Act. 24.14. After the way which they call
heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers,
believing all things which are written in the
law and in the prophets.
Bom. 3.1. What advantage then hath the
Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision 1
2. Much every way : chiefly, because that unto
them were committed the oracles of God.
Bom. 7.10. The commandment, which was
ordained to life, I found to be unto death. 16.
If then I do that which I would not, I consent
unto the law that it is good.
Eom. 8.3. What the law could not do, in
that it was weak through the flesh, God send
ing his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh,
and for sin condemned sin in the flesh.
Bom. 9.4. To whom pertaineth the adoption.
2 Cor. 3.7. If the ministration of death,
written and engraven in stones, was glorious,
so that the children of Israel could not sted-
fastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of
his countenance ; which glory was &o be done
away : 8. How shall not the ministration cf
the spirit be rather glorious? 9. For if the
ministration of condemnation be glory, much
more doth the ministration of righteousness
exceed in glory. 10. For even that which was
made glorious had no glory in this respect, by
reason of the glory that excelleth. 11. For if
that which is done away was glorious, much
more that which remaineth is glorious.
2 Cor. 3.12. Seeing then that we have such
hope, we use great plainness of speech : 13.
And not as Moses, which put a vail over his
face, that the children of Israel could not sted-
fastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
14. But their minds were blinded : for until
this day remaineth the same vail untaken
away in the reading of the old testament;
which vail is done away in Christ.
Gal. 2.14. If thou, being a Jew, livest after
the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the
Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live
as do the Jews ?
Gal. 3.19. Wherefore then serveth the law?
It was added because of transgressions, till the
seed should come to whom the promise was
made. 21. Is the law then against the pro
mises of God? God forbid: for if there had been
a law given which could have given life, verily
righteousness should have been by the law.
23. Before faith came, we were kept under the
law, shut up unto the faith which should after
wards be revealed. 24. Wherefore the law
was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ,
that we might be justified by faith. 25. But
after that faith is come, we are no longer under
a schoolmaster. Gal. 4.3. We, when we were children, were
273

LAW
in bondage under the elements of the world :
4. But when the fulness of the time was come,
God sent forth his Son, made of a woman,
made under the law, 5. To redeem them that
were under the law, that we might receive the
adoption of sons. 9. Now, after that ye have
known God, or rather are known of God, how
turn ye again to the weak and beggarly ele
ments, whereunto ye desire again to be in
bondage? 10. Ye observe days, and months,
and times, and years, v. 1-12, 21-31.
Eph. 2.15. Having abolished in his flesh
the enmity, even the law of commandments
contained in ordinances;
Col. 2.14. Blotting out the handwriting of
ordinances that was against us, which was
contrary to us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross. 16. Let no man there
fore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in
respect of an holy-day, or of the new moon, or
of the sabbath days : 17. Which are a shadow
of things to come ; but the body is of Christ.
20. If ye be dead with Christ from the rudi
ments of the world, why, as though living in
the world, are ye subject to ordinances, 21.
Touch not ; taste not ; handle not ; 22. Which
all are to perish with the using.
Heb. 7.18. There is verilya disannulling of
the commandment going before for the weak
ness and unprofitableness thereof. 19. The
law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in
of a better hope did ; by the which we draw
nigh unto God. v. 1-28.
Heb. 8.4. There are priests that offer gifts
according to the law : 5. Who serve unto the
example and shadow of heavenly things, as
Moses was admonished of God when he was
about to make the tabernacle : for, See, saith
he, that thou make all things according to
the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
6. He is the mediator of a better covenant,
which was established upon better promises.
7. For if that first covenant had been faultless,
then should no place have been sought for the
second. 8. For finding fault with them, he
saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant. 13. In that
he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the
first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth
old is ready to vanish away. v. 9-12.
Heb. 9.8. The Holy Ghost this signifying,
that the way into the holiest of all was not yet
made manifest, while as the first tabernacle
was yet standing : 9. Which was a figure for
the time then present, in which were offered both
gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him
that did the service perfect, as pertaining to
the conscience ; 10. Which stood only in meats
and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal
ordinances, imposed on them until the time of
reformation. 23. It was therefore necessary
that the patterns of things in the heavens
should be purified with these ; but the heavenly
things themselves with better sacrifices than
these. Heb. 10 1. The law having a shadow of
good things to come, and not the very image
of the things, can never with those sacrifices
which they offered year by year continually
make the comers thereunto perfect. 2. For
then would they not have ceased to be offered ?
because that the worshippers once purged
should have had no more conscience of sins.
3. But in those acrifices there is a remem-
274

LEGION
brance again made of sins every year. 4. For
it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of
goats should take away sins. v. 1-18.
Heb. 11.40. God having provided some bet
ter thing for us, that they without us should
not be made perfect.
Heb. 12.18. Ye are not come unto the
mount that might be touched, and that burned
with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness,
and tempest, 19. And the sound of a trumpet,
and the voice of words. 27. This word, Yet
once more, signifieth the removing of those
things that are shaken, as of things that are
made, that those things which cannot be shaken
may remain.

faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye
Jiave to all the saints. 24. Who now rejoice in
my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is
behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh

Christ at his coming ? 20. For ye are our glory
and joy.
1 The. 3.5. I sent to know your faith, lest
by some means the tempter have tempted you,

were comforted over you in all our affliction
and distress by your faith : 8. For now we live,
if ye stand fast in the lord. 9. For what
thanks can we renderto God again for you, for all
the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before
our God. 10. Night and day praying exceed
ingly that we might see your face, and might
perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
12. Abound in love one toward another,
and toward all men, even as we do toward
you. 2 The. 1.4. We ourselves glory in you in
the churches of God for your patience and
faith in all your persecutions and tribulations
that ye endure.

again ; when he suffered, he threatened not ;
but committed himself to him that judgeth
righteously. 1 Pet. 3.4. That which is not corruptible,
even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit,
which is in the sight of God of great prict. 11.

and he calleth his own sheep by name, and lead-
eth them out. 4. And when he putteth forth his
own sheep, he goeth before them, and the
sheep follow him : for they know his voice.
5. And a stranger will they not follow, but
will flee from him : for they know not the
voice of strangers.
Jno. 13j13. Ye call me Master and Lord :
and ye say well ; for so I am. 14. If I then,
your Lord and Master, have washed your feet,
ye also ought to wash one another's feet. 16.
For I have given you an example, that ye
should do as I have done to you. 16. Verily,
verily, I say unto you, The servant is not
greater than his lord ; neither he that is sent
greater than he that sent him. 17. If ye know
these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
Jno. 16.20. Remember the word that I
said unto you, The servant is not greater than
his lord. If they have persecuted me, they
will also persecute you ; if they have kept my
saying, they will keep yours also. 21. But all
these things will they do unto you for my
name's sake, because they know not him, that
sent me.
Jno. 17.18. As thou hast sent me into the
world, even so have I also sent them into the
world. 20. Neither pray I for these alone, but
for them also which shall believe on me through
their word.

preachest a man should not steal, dost thou
steal? 22. Thou that sayest a man should not
commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery ?
thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit

questions, rather than godly edifying which is
in faith : so do.
1 Tim. 1.18. War a good warfare; 19. Hold
ing faith, and a good conscience ; which some
having put away concerning faith have made
shipwreck. 1 Tim. 3.1. This is a true saying, If a man
desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good
work. 2. A bishop then must be blameless,
the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of
good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to
teach ; 3. Not given to wine, no striker, not
greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a
brawler, not covetous ; 4. One that ruleth well
his own house, having his children in subjec
tion with all gravity ; 5. (For if a man know
not how to rule his own house, how shall he
take care of the church of God?) 6. Not a
novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall
into the condemnation of the devil. 7. More
over he must have a good report of them which
are without ; lest he fall into reproach and the
snare of the devil. 15. If I tarry long, that

1 Tim. 4.6. If thou put the brethren in
remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a
good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in
the words of faith and of good doctrine, where
unto thou hast attained. 7. But refuse profane
and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself
rather unto godliness. 12. Be thou an example
of the believers, in word, "in conversation, in
charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13. Till
I come, give attendance to reading, to exhort
ation, to doctrine. 14. Neglect not the gift
that is in thee, which was given thee by pro
phecy, with the laying on of the hands of the
presbytery. 15. Meditate upon these things ;
give thyself wholly to them ; that thy profiting
may appear to all. 16. Take heed unto thyself,
and unto the doctrine ; continue in them :
for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself,
and them that hear thee.
1 Tim. 5.17. Let tbe elders that rule well be
counted worthy of double honour, especially
they who labour in the word and doctrine. 21.
I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus
Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe
these things without preferring one before
another, doing nothing by partiality.
1 Tim. 6.11. O man of God, flee these
things ; and follow after righteousness, godli

give thee charge in the sight of God, who
quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus,
who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good
confession ; 14. That thou keep this command
ment without spot, unrebukeable, until the
appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ. 20. O

thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee

the form of sound words, which thou hast
heard of me, in faith and love which is in
Christ Jesus. 14. That good thing which was
committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost
which dwelleth in us.
2 Tim. 2.1. My son, be strong in the grace
that is in Christ Jesus. 2. The things that thou
hast heard of me among many witnesses, the
same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be
able to teach others also. 3. Endure hardness,
as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4. No man
that warreth entangleth himself with the
affairs of this hie ; that he may please him who
hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5. If a man
also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned,
except he strive lawfully. 6. The husbandman
that laboureth must be first partaker of the
fruits. 7- Consider what I say ; and the Lord
give thee understanding in au things.
2 Tim. 2.14. Of these things put them in
remembrance, charging them before the Lord
that they strive not about words to no profit,
but to the subverting of the hearers. 15. Study
to shew thyself approved unto God, a work- J
man that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth. 16. Shun profane
and vain babblings : for they will increase unto
more ungodliness. 20. In a great house there
are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but
also of wood and of earth ; and some to
honour, and some to dishonour. 21. If a man
therefore purge himself from these, he shall be
a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for
the master's use, and prepared unto every
good work. (See v. 16,17.)
2 Tim. 2.23. Foolish and unlearned ques
tions avoid, knowing that they do gender
strifes. 24. And the servant of the Lord must
not strive ; but be gentle unto all men, apt to
teach, patient, 25. In meekness instructing
those that oppose themselves ; if God per-
adventure will give them repentance to the
acknowledging of the truth ; 26. And that
they may recover themselves out of the snare
of the devil, who are taken captive by hinn at
his will.
2 Tim. 3.14. Continue thou in the things
which thou hast learned and hast been assured
of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
16. All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness :
17. That the man of God may be perfect,
throv^hly furnished unto all good works.
2 Tim. 4,1. I charge thee therefore before
God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall
judge the quick and the dead at his appearing
and his kingdom ; 2. Preach the word ; be
instant in Beason, out of season ; reprove,
rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and
doctrine. 5. Watch thou in all thing*; endure
afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make
full proof of thy ministry.
Tit. 1.6. For this cause left I thee in Crete,
that thou shouldest set in order the things that
are wanting, and ordain elders in every city,
as I had appointed thee : 6. If any be blame
less, the husband of one wife, having faithful
children not accused of riot or unruly. 7. For
304

a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of
God ; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given
to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre ;
8. But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good
men, sober, just, holy, temperate ; 9. Hold
ing fast the faithful word as he hath been
taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine
both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
13. Rebuke them sharply, that they may be
sound in the faith ; 14. Not giving heed to
Jewish fables, and commandments of men,
that turn from the truth.
Tit. 2.1. Speak thou the things which be
come sound doctrine. 7. In all things shewing
thyself a pattern of good works : in doctrine
shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, 8.
Sound speech, that connot be condemned;
that he that is of the contrary part may be
ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.
15. Speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all
authority. Let no man despise thee.
Tit. 3.8. This is a faithful saying, and these
things I will that thou affirm constantly, that
they which have believed in God might be
careful to maintain good works. These things
are good and profitable unto men. 9. Avoid
foolish questions, and genealogies, and con
tentions, and strivings about the law ; for they
are unprofitable and vain. (See Epistles to
Timothy, and Titus, in full.)
Heb. 5.12. Ye have need that one teach you
again which be the first principles of the oracles
of God ; and are become such as have need of
milk, and not of strong meat. 13. For every
one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of
righteousness : for he is d babe. v. 14.
Heb. 13.7. Remember them which have tlW
rule over you, who have spoken unto you the
word of God : whose faith follow, considering
the end of their conversation : 8. Jesus Christ
the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
17. Obey them that have the rule over you, and
submit yourselves : for they watch for your
souls, as they that must give account, that
they may do it with joy, and not with grief :
for that is unprofitable for you.
Jas. 3.1. My brethren, be not many masters,
knowing that we shall receive the greater con
demnation. 13. Who is a wise man and en
dued with knowledge among you? let him shew
out of a good conversation his works with
meekness of wisdom, v. 3,17,18.
1 Pet. 4.10. As every man hath received the
gift, even so minister the same one to another,
as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11. If any man speak, let him speak as the
oraclesof God ; if any man minister, Zet him do it
as of the ability which God giveth : that God in
all things may be glorified through Jesus
Christ. 1 Pet. 6.1. The elders which are among you
I exhort, who am also an elder. 2. Feed the
flock of God which is among you, taking the
oversight thereof, not by constraint, but wil
lingly ; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready
mind ; 3. Neither as being lords over Gods
heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. 4.

quity. 9. And there shall be, like people, like
priest : and I will punish them for their ways,
and reward them their doings, v. 10-13.
Hos. 6.9. As troops of robbers wait for a
man, so the company of priests murder in the
way by consent : for they commit lewdness.
Hos. 9.8. The watchman of Ephraim was
with my God : but the prophet is a snare of a
fowler in all his ways, and hatred in the house
of his God. v. 7. Hos. 6.1.
Mic. 2,11. If a man walking in the spirit

MINISTERS
and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy
unto thee of wine and of strong drink ; he shall
even be the prophet of this people.
Mic. 3. 6. The prophets that make my people
err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace ;
and he that putteth not into their mouths,
they even prepare war against him. 6. There
fore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not
have a vision ; and it shall be dark unto you,
that ye shall not divine ; and the sun shall go
down over the prophets, and the day shall be
dark over them. 7. Then shall the seers be
ashamed, and the diviners confounded : yea,
they shall all cover their lips ; for there is no
answer of God. 11. The priests thereof teach
for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for
money : yet will they lean upon the Lord, and
say, Is not the Lord among us ? none evil can
come upon us.
Zeph. 3.4. Her prophets are light and
treacherous persons : her priests have pol
luted the sanctuary, they have done violence
to the law.
Zee. 10.3. Mine anger was kindled against
the shepherds, and I punished the goats : for
the Lord of hosts hath visited his flock the
house of Judah.
Zee. 11.16. Lo, I will raise up a shepherd
in the land, which shall not visit those that be
cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor
heal that that is broken, nor feed that that
standeth still : but he shall eat the flesh of the
fat, and tear their claws in pieces. 17. Woe
to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock !
the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his
right eye : his arm shall be clean dried up, and
his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Zee. 13.2. I will cause the prophets and
the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
3. When any shall yet prophesy, then his
father and his mother that begat him shall
say unto him, Thou shalt not live ; for thou
speakest lies in the name of the Lord : and
his father and his mother that begat him shall
thrust him through when he prophesieth. 4.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the
prophets shall be ashamed every one of his
vision, when he hath prophesied ; neither
shall they wear a rough garment to deceive :
6. But he shall say, I am no prophet.
Mai. 1.6. If I be a master, where is my fear ?
saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests,
that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein
have we despised thy name ? v. 7-10.
Mai. 2.8. Ye are departed out of the way ;
ye have caused many to stumble at the law ;
ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith
the Lord of hosts. 9. Therefore have I also
made you contemptible and base before all the
people, according as ye have not kept my ways,
but have been partial in the law. v. 1-3.
Mat. 6.19. Whosoever therefore shall break
one of these least commandments, and shall
teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven.
Mat. 7.15. Beware of false prophets, which
come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly
they are ravening wolves. 22. Many will say
to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name ? and in thy name have
cast out devils ? and in thy name done many
wonderful works ? 23. And then will I profess
unto them, I never knew you : depart from
*ae» ye that work iniquity.

MINISTERS
Mat. 15.9. In vain they do worship me,
teaching for doctrines the commandments of
men. 13. Every plant, which my heavenly
Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14. They be blind leaders of the blind. And
if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into
the ditch. Luk, 6.39.
Mat. 23.3. All therefore whatsoever they
bid ybu observe, that observe and do ; but do
not ye after their works : for they say, and do
not. 4. For they bind heavy burdens and
grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's
shoulders ; but they themselves wiU not move
them with one of their fingers. 13. Woe unto
you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites 1 for ye
shut up the kingdom of heaven against men :
for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer
ye them that are entering to go in.
Mat. 24.4. Take heed that no man deceive
you. 5. For many shall come in my name,
saying, I am Christ ; and shall deceive many.
24. There shall arise false Christs, and false
prophets, and shall shew great signs and
wonders ; insomuch that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect, v. 11,26,
48-51. Luk. 11.35. Take heed therefore that the
light which is in thee be not darkness. 62. Ye
have taken away the key of knowledge : ye
entered not in yourselves, and them that were
entering in ye hindered, v. 46-51.
Luk. 12.45. If that servant say in his heart,
My lord delayeth his coming ; and shall begin
to beat the men-servants and maidens, and to
eat and drink, and to be drunken ; 46. The
lord of that servant will come in a day when
he looketh not for him, and at an hour when
he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder
and will appoint him his portion with the
unbelievers. Jno. 3.10. Art thou a master of Israel, and
knowest not these things ?
Jno. 5.43. If another shall come in his own
name, him ye will receive.
Jno. 10.1. He that entereth not by the door
into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other
way, the same is a thief and a robber. 5. A
stranger will they not follow, but will flee from
him : for they know not the voice of strangers.
8. All that ever came before me are thieves
and robbers : but the sheep did not hear them.
10. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and
to kill, and to destroy. 12. He that is an
hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the
sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and
leaveth the sheep, and fleeth : and the wolf
catcheth them, and. scattereth the sheep. 13.
The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling,
and careth not for the sheep.
Act. 20.29. After my departing shall griev
ous wolves enter in among you, not sparing
the flock. 30. Also of your own selves shall
men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw
away disciples after them.
Rom. 2.19. Art confident that thou thyself
art a guide of the blind, a light of them which
are in darkness. 20. An instructor of the
foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast tho
form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
21. Thou therefore which teachest another,
teachest thou not thyself? thou that preach-
est a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
v. 22.
Rom. 3.8. Some affirm that we say, Let ua

MINISTERS
do evil, that good may come, whose damnation
is just.
Rom. 16.17. Mark them which cause divi
sions and offences contrary to the doctrine
which ye have learned ; and avoid them.
18. For they that are such serve not our Lord
Jesus Christ, but their own belly ; and by good
words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of
the simple.
1 Cor. 1.12. Every one of you saith, I am of
Paul ; and I of Apollos ; and I of Cephas ; and
I of Christ. 13. Is Christ divided ? was Paul
crucified for you ? or were ye baptized in the
uame of Paul ?
1 Cor! 3.10. Let every man take heed how
ne buildeth thereupon. 11. For other found
ation can no man lay than that is laid, which
is Jesus Christ. 21. Therefore let no man
glory in men. v. 1-4.
1 Cor. 11.18. I hear that there be divisions
among you ; and I partly believe it. 19. For
there must be also heresies among you, that
they which are approved may be made manifest
among you.
2 Cor. 2.17. We are not as many, which
corrupt the word of God.
2 Cor. 11.3. I fear, lest by any means, as
the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtuty,
so your minds should be corrupted from the
simplicity that is in Christ. 4. For if he that
cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we
have not preached, or if ye receive another
spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might
well bear with hvm. 13. Such are false apostles,
deceitful workers, transforming themselves
into the apostles of Christ. 14. And no marvel ;
for Satan himself is transformed into an angel
of light. 15. Therefore it is no great thing if
his ministers also be transformed as the minis
ters of righteousness ; whose end shall be
according to their works, v. 1-33.
Gal. 1.6. I marvel that ye are so soon
removed from him that called you into the
grace of Christ unto another gospel : 7. Which
is not another ; but there be some that trouble
you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8. But though we, or an angel from heaven,
preach any other gospel unto you than that
which we have preached unto you, let him be
accursed. Gal. 2.4. False brethren unawares brought
in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty
which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might
bring us into bondage.
Gal. 5.10. He that troubleth you shall bear
his judgment, whosoever he be.
Eph. 4.14. Be no more children, tossed to
and fro, and carried about with every wind of
doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning
craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.
Phil. 1.15. Some indeed preach Christ even
of envy and strife ; and some also of good
will : 16. The one preach Christ of contention,
not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to
my bonds.
Phil. 3.2. Beware of dogs, beware of evil
workers, beware of the concision.
Col. 2.4. This I say, lest any man should
beguile you with enticing words. 8. Beware
lest any man spoil you through philosophy and
vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after
the rudiments of the world, and not after
Christ. 18. Let no man beguile you of rour

MINISTERS
reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping
of angels, intruding into those things which he
hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly
mind. 1 Tim. 1.3. Charge some that they teach no
other doctrine, 4. Neither give heed to fables
and endless genealogies, which minister ques
tions, rather than godly edifying which is in
faith : so do. 6. From which some having
swerved, have turned aside unto vain jangling ;
7. Desiring to be teachers of the law ; under
standing neither what they say, nor whereof
they affirm. 19. Holding faith and a good
conscience ; which some having put away
concerning faith have made shipwreck.
1 Tim. 4.1. In the latter times some shall
depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits, and doctrines of devils ; 2. Speaking
lies in hypocrisy ; having their conscience
seared with a hot iron ; 3. Forbidding to
marry, and commanding to abstain from
meats. 7. Refuse profane and old wives'
fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godli
ness. 1 Tim. 6.3. If any man teach otherwise,
and consent not to wholesome words, even the
words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the,
doctrine which is according to godliness ; 4.
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting
about questions and strifes of words, whereof
cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
5. Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds,
and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain
is godliness : from such withdraw thyself. 20.
Keep that which is committed to thy trust,
avoiding profane and vain babblings, and
oppositions of science falsely so called: 21.
Which some professing have erred concerning
the faith.
2 Tim. 2.14. Strive not about words to no
profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
16. Shun profane and vain babblings : for they
will increase unto more ungodliness. 17. And
their word will eat as doth a canker : of whom
is Hymenseus and Philetus ; 18. Who con
cerning the truth have erred, saying that the
resurrection is past already ; and overthrow
the faith of some.
2 Tim. 3.6. Of this sort are they which creep
into houses, and lead captive silly women laden
with sins, led away with divers lusts, 8. As
Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do
these also resist the truth : men of corrupt
minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9. But
they shall proceed no further : for their folly
shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also
was. 13. Evil men and seducers shall wax
worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
2 Tim. 4.3.
Tit. 1.10. Many unruly and vain talkers
and deceivers, specially they of the circum
cision : 11. Whose mouths must be stopped,
who subvert whole houses, teaching things
which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.
14. Giving heed to Jewish fables, and com
mandments of men, that turn from the truth.
Tit. 3.10. An heretick after the flrst and
second admonition reject ; 11. Knowing
that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth,
being condemned of himself.
Heb. 13.9. Be not carried about with divers
and strange doctrines.
2 Pet. 2.1. There were false prophets also
among the people, even as there shall be false

MINISTERS
teachers among you, who privily shall bring in
damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that
bought them, and bring upon themselves swift
destruction. 2. Many shall follow their per
nicious ways ;. by reason of whom the way of
truth shall be evil spoken of. 3. Through
covetousness shall they with feigned words
make merchandise of you : whose judgment
now of a long time lnagereth not, and their
damnation slumbereth not.
2 Pet. 2.14. A heart they have, exercised
with covetous practices ; cursed children : 15.
Which have forsaken the right way, and are
gone astray, following the way of Balaam tiie
son of Bosor, who loved the wages of un
righteousness ; 16. But was rebuked for his
iniquity : 17. These are wells without water,
clouds that are carried with a tempest ; to
whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
18. When they speak great swelling words of
vanity, they allure through the lusts of the
flesh, throughmuch wantonness, those that were
clean escaped from them who live in error. 19.
While they promise them liberty, they them
selves are the servants of corruption, v. 1-22.
2 Pet. 3.16. Things hard to be understood,
which they that are unlearned and unstable
wrest, as they do also the other scriptures,
unto their own destruction.
1 Jno. 2.18. As ye have heard that anti
christ shall dome, even now are there many
antichrists ; whereby we know that it is the
last time. 26. These things have I written
unto you concerning them that seduce you.
1 Jno. 4.1. Beloved, believe not every spirit,
but try the spirits whether they are of God :
because many false prophets are gone out into
the world. 2. Hereby know ye the Spirit of
God : Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus
Christ is come in the flesh is of God : 3. And
every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus
Christ is come in the flesh is not of God : and
this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye
have heard that it should come ; and even
now already is it in the world.
1 Jno. 4.5. They are of the world : there
fore speak they of the world, and the world
heareth them.
2 Jno. 7. Many deceivers are entered into
the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ
is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and
an antichrist. 10. If there come any unto
you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him
not into your house, neither bid him God
speed : 11. For he that biddeth him, God
speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
3 Jno. 10. I will remember his deeds which
he doeth, prating against us with malicious
words : and not content therewith, neither
doth he himself receive the brethren, and for-
biddeth them that would, and casteth them
out of the church.
Jude 4. There are certain men crept in
unawares, who were before of old ordained to
this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the
grace of our God into lasciviousness, and
denying the only Lord God, and our Lord
Jesus Christ. 11. Woe unto them I for they
have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily
after the error of Balaam for reward, and
perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Rev. 2.2. How thou canst not bear them
which are evil : and thou hast tried them
which say they are apostles, and are not, and

MIRACLES
hast found them liars. 14. Thou hast there
them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who
taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before
the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed
unto idols, and to commit fornication. 15. So
hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of
the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate.
Rev. 2.20. Thou sufferest that woman
Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to
teach and to seduce my servants to commit
fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto
idols. 21. And I gave her space to repent of
her fornication ; and she repented not. 22.
Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them
that commitadulterywithherintogreat tribula
tion, except they repent of their deeds. 23.
And I will kill her children with death.

raise him up ; and if he have committed sins,
they shall be forgiven him.

OFFERINGS, Insufficiency of. 1 Sam.
15. 22. Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt-
offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice
of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than
sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
Psa. 40.6. Sacrifice and offering thou didst
not desire ; mine ears hast thou opened :
burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not
required. Psa. 50.8. I will not reprove thee for thy
sacrifices, or thy burnt-offerings, to have been
continually before me. 9. I will take no bul
lock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy
folds : 10. For every beast of the forest is
mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
11. I know all the fowls of the mountains ;
and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
12. If I were hungry, I would not tell thee ;
for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
13. Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the
blood of goats ? ¦ 14. Offer unto God thanks
giving ; and pay thy vows unto the most
High. Psa. 61.16. For thou desirest not sacrifice,
else would I give it; thou delightest not iu
bumt-offering. 17. The sacrifices of God are
a broken spirit ; a broken and a contrite heart,
O God, thou wilt not despise.
Pro. 21.3. To do justice and judgment is
more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
27. The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination :
how much more when he bringeth it with a
wicked mind ! 325

OFFERINGS
Isa. 1.11. To what purpose is the multi
tude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the
Lord : I am full of the burnt-offerings of rams,
and the fat of fed beasts ; and I delight not
in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he-
goats. 13. Bring no more vain oblations : in
cense is an abomination unto me ; the new-
moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies,
I cannot away with ; it is iniquity, even the
solemn meeting. 14. Your new-moons and
your appointed feasts my soul hateth : they are
a trouble unto me ; I am weary to bear them.
Isa. 40.16. Lebanon is not sufficient to
burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a
burnt-offering. Isa. 66.3. He that killeth an ox, is as if
he slew a man ; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as
if he cut off a dog's neck ; he that offereth an
oblation, as if he offered swine's blood ; he that
burnetii incense, as if he blessed an idol : yea,
they have chosen their own ways, and their
soul delighteth in their abominations.
Jer. 6.20. To what purpose cometh there
to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane
from a far country ? your burnt-offerings are
not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet
unto me.
Jer. 7.21. Put your burnt-offerings unto
your sacrifices, and eat flesh. 22. For I speak
not unto your fathers, nor commanded them
In the day that I brought them out of the
land of Egypt, concerning burnt-offerings or
sacrifices : 23. But this thing commanded I
them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be
your God.
Jer. 14.12. When they fast, I will not hear
their cry ; and when they offer burnt-offering
and an oblation, I will not accept them : but
I will consume them by the sword, and by the
famine, and by the pestilence.
Hos. 6.6. I desired mercy, and not sacri
fice ; and the knowledge of God more than
burnt-offerings. Hos. 8. 13. They sacrifice flesh for the sacri
fices of mine offerings, and eat it ; but the Lord
accepteth them not : now will he remember
their iniquity.
Amos 5.21. I hate, I despise your feast-
days, and I will not smell in your solemn
assemblies. 22. Though ye offer me burnt-
offerings, and your meat-offerings, I will not
accept them ; neither will I regard the peace-
offerings of your fat beasts. 23. Take thou
away from me the noise of thy songs ; for I
will not hear the melody of thy viols. 24. But
let judgment run down as waters, and right
eousness as a mighty stream. Hos. 9.4.
Mic. 6.6. Wherewith shall I come before
the Lord, and bow myself before the high
God? shall I come before him with burnt-
offerings, with calves of a year old ? 7. Will
the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
or with ten thousands of rivers of oil ? shall I
give my first-born for my transgression, the
fruit of my body for the sin of my soul ? 8.
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good :
and what doth the Lord require of thee, but
to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk
humbly with thy God ?
Mar. 12.33. To love him with all the heart,
and with all the understanding, and with all
the soul, and with all the strength, and to love
hi:; neighbour as himself, is more than all
whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices.
326

OFFERINGS
Heb. 9.9. In which were offered both gifts
and sacrifices, that could not make him that
did the service perfect, as pertaining to the
conscience. Heb. 10.1. For the law having a shadow of
good things to come, and not the very image
of the things, can never with those sacrifices,
which they offered year by year continually,
make the comers thereunto perfect : 2. For
then would they not have ceased to be offer
ed ? because that the worshippers once purged
should have had no more conscience of sins.
3. But in those sacrifices there is a remem
brance again made ot sins every year. 4. For it
is not possible that the blood of bulls and of
goats should take away sins. 5. Wherefore,
when he cometh into the world, he saith,
Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, hut
a body hast thou prepared me.
Heb. 10.6. In burnt-offerings and sacrifices
for sin thou hast had no pleasure : 7. Then
said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book
it is written of me) to do thy will, O God. 8.
Above, when he said, Sacrifice, and offering,
and burnt-offerings, and offering for sin, thou
wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein;
(which are offered by the law ;) 9. Then said
he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He
taketh away the first, that he may establish
the second. 10. By the which will we are
sanctified, through the offering of the body of
Jesus' Christ once for all. 11. And every priest
standeth daily ministering, and offering often
times the same sacrifices, which can never take
away sins. See Law, mosaic, character

with exceeding joy. 14. If ye be reproached
for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the
spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you :

with Christ a thousand years.

have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the

1 Cor. 4.9. I think that God hath set forth
us the apostles last, as it were appointed to
death : for we are made a spectacle unto the
world, and to angels, and to men. 11. Even

have no certain dwelling-place. 12. And
labour, working with our own hands : being
reviled, we bless ; being persecuted, we suffer
it : 13. Being defamed, we entreat : we are
made as the filth of the world, and are the
offscouring of all things unto this day.
2 Cor. 1.8. Our trouble which came to us
in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure,
above strength, insomuch that we despaired
even of life : 9. But we had the sentence of
death in ourselves, that we should not trust in
ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead ;
10. Who delivered us from so great a death,
and doth deliver : in whom we trust that he
will yet deliver us.
2 Cor. 4.8. We are troubled on every side,
yet not distressed ; we are perplexed, but not
in despair ; 9. Persecuted, but not forsaken ;
cast down, but not destroyed; 10. Always
bearing about in the body the dying of the
Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might
be made manifest in our body. 11. For we
which live are alway delivered unto death for
Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might
be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12. So
then death worketh in us, but life in you.
2 Cor. 6.4. In all things approving our

in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city,
in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea,
in perils among false brethren ; 27. In weari

2 Tim. 4.16. At my first answer no man

the preaching might be fully known, and that
all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered
out of the mouth of the lion.

abide in him.
2 Jno. 2. The truth's sake, which dwelleth

cause I persecuted the church of God.
2 Cor. 7.9. Ye sorrowed to repentance : for
ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that
ye might receive damage by us in nothing. 10.
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salva

selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly
sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea,

nation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement
desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge I

RESURRECTION. Job 14.12. Man lieth
down, and riseth not : till the heavens be no
more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out
of their sleep. 13. O that thou wouldest hide
me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me
secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou
wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember
me ! 14. If a man die, shall he live again?

I will answer thee : thou wilt have a desire to
the work of thine hands.

any more : for they are equal unto the angels ;
and are the children of God, being the children
of the resurrection. 37. Now that the deati
are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush
when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham,
and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

Lord, and will also raise up us by his own
power. 1 Cor. 16.32. What advantageth it me, if
the dead rise not ? let us eat and drink ; for
to morrow we die. 40. There are also
celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial : but

ot the terrestrial is another. 42. So also is
the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in
corruption ; it is raised in incorruption : 43.
It is sown in dishonour ; it is raised in glory :
it is sown in weakness ; it is raised in power :
44. It is sown a natural body ; it is raised a
spiritual body. There is a natural body, and
there is a spiritual body.
1 Cor. 16.46. That was not first which is
spiritual, but that which is natural ; and after
ward that which is spiritual. 48. As is the
earthy, such are they also that are earthy : and
as is the heavenly, such are they also that are
heavenly. 49. And as we have borne the
image of the earthy, we shall also bear the
image of the heavenly. 50. Now this I say,
brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit
the kingdom of God ; neither doth corruption
inherit incorruption.
1 Cor. 15.52. In a moment, in the twink
ling of an eye, at the last trump : for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be
raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed,
53. For this corruptible must put on incor
ruption, and this mortal must put on immor
tality. 64. So when this corruptible shall
have put on incorruption, and this mortal

RESURRECTION
shall have put on immortality, then shall be
brought to pass the saying that is written,
Death is swallowed up in victory, v. 12-54.
2 Cor. 1.9. We had the sentence of death
in ourselves, that we should not trust in our
selves, but in God which raiseth the dead.
2 Cor. 5.1. A building of God, an house not
made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2.
Earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our
house which is from heaven : 3. If so be that
being clothed, we shall not be found naked.
4. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan,
being burdened : not for that we would be
unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality
might be swallowed up of life.

power of God.

and rose again, even so them also which sleep
in Jesus will God bring with nim. 15. We
which are alive and remain unto the coming
of the Lord shall not prevent them which are
asleep. 16. For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice of
the archangel, and with the trump of God :
and the dead in Christ shall rise flrst : 17.
Then we which are alive and remain shall be
caught up together with them in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in the air : and so shall we
ever be with th.6 Lord,

raised to life again : and others were tortured,
not accepting deliverance; that they might
obtain a better resurrection.
Rev. 20.6. Blessed and holy is he that hath
part in the first resurrection : on such the
second death hath no power ; but they shall
be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign
with him a thousand years. 13. The sea gave
up the dead which were in it ; and death and
hell delivered up the dead which were in
them : and they were judged every man accord
ing to their works.
RESURRECTION. By Christ and the
Holy Spirit. Jno. 5.21. As the Father
raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them;
even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
26. The hour is coming, and now is, when the
dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God :
and they that hear shall live. 28. The hour
is coming, in the which all that are in the
graves shall hear his voice, 29. And shall
come forth; they that have done good, unto
the resurrection of life ; and they that have
done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
Jno. 6.39. This is the Father's will which
hath sent me, that of all which he hath given
me I should lose nothing, but should raise it
up again at the last day. 44. No man can
come to me, except the Father which hath sent

moved into all the kingdoms of the earth.

from off their bones : 3. Who also eat the
flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off
them ; and they break their bones, and chop
them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh
within the caldron. 4. Then shall they cry
unto the Lord, but he will not hear them : he
will even hide his face from them at that time,
as they have behaved themselves ill in their
doings. Mic. 3.9. Ye heads of the house of Jacob,
and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor
judgment, and pervert all equity. 10.
They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem

money : yet will they lean upon the Lord, and
say, Is not the Lord among us ?
Mic. 7.3. That they may do evil with both
hands earnestly, the prince asketh, and the
judge asketh for a reward ; and the great man,
he uttereth his mischievous desire : so they

and seethe that ye will seethe ; and that which
remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until
the morning. 24. And they laid it up till the
morning, as Moses bade : and it did not stink,
neither was their any worm therein. 25. And
Moses said, Eat that to day ; for to day is a
Sabbath unto the Lord : to day ye shaU not
find it in the field. 26. Six days ye shall
gather it ; but on the seventh day, which, is
the Sabbath, in it there shall be none. 27.

servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is

myself servant unto all, that I might gain the
more. 23. This I do for the gospel's sake, that
I might be partaker thereof with you. 25,
Every man that striveth for the mastery is
temperate in all things. Now they do it to
obtain a corruptible crown ; but we an incor
ruptible. 26. I therefore so run, not as
uncertainly ; so fight I, not as one that beateth

him ruler over all his goods. 48. But and if
that evil servant shall say in his heart, My*
lord delayeth his coming ; 49. And shall
begin to smite his fellow-servants, and to eat
and drink with the drunken ; 60. The Lord of
that servant shall come in a day when he look

doctrine be not blasphemed. 2. And they
that have believing masters, let them not
despise them, because they are brethren ; but

for your faults, ye shall take it patiently ? but
if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take

itself is brought to desolation ; and every city
or house divided against itself shall not stand.
Mat 18.15. If thy brother shall trespass
against thee, go and tell him his fault between

witnesses every' word may be established. 17.
And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it

Luk. 12.58. "When thou goest with thine
adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the

the simple.
1 Cor. 1.10. I beseech you, brethren, by the
name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all
speak the same thing, and that there be no
divisions among you ; but that ye be perfectly
joined together in the same mind and in the
same judgment. 11. For it hath been declar
ed unto me of you, my brethren, by them
456

STEIFE
which are ofthe house of Chloe, that there are
contentions among you. 12. Every one of you
saith, I am of Paul ; and I of Apollos ; and
I of Cephas ; and I of Christ. 13. Is Christ
divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were
ye baptised in the name of Paul?
1 Cor. 3.1. I, brethren, could not speak
unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal,
even as unto babes in Christ. 3. For ye are
yet carnal : for whereas there is among you
envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not
carnal, and walk as men ? 4. For while one
saith, I am of Paul ; and another, I am ot
Apollos ; are ye not carnal ? 21. Let no

contentious, we have no such custom, neither
the churches of God. 17. Ye come together
not for the better, but for the worse. 18. For
first of all, when ye come together in the
church, I hear that there be divisions among
you. 19. For there must be also heresies among
you, that they which are approved may be made
manifest among you.
2 Cor. 12.20. I fear, lest, when I come, I
shall not find you such as I would, and that I
shall be found unto you such as ye would not :
lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes,
backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults.
Gal. 5.10. He that troubleth you shall bear '
his judgment, whosoever he be. 15. If ye bite

affirm. 1 Tim. 2.8. I will therefore that, men pray
every where, lifting up holy hands, without
wrath and doubting.

and consent not to wholesome words, even the
words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the
doctrine which is according to godliness ; 4.
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting
about questions and strifes of words, whereof
cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
6. Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds,
and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain

Is godliness : from such withdraw thyself. 20.
Avoiding profane and vain babblings, and
oppositions of science falsely so called : 21.
Which some professing have erred concerning
the faith.
2 Tim. 2.14. Charging them bef ore the Lord
that they strive not about words to no profit,
but to the subverting of the hearers. 23.
Foolish and unlearned questions avoid, know
ing that they do gender strifes. 24. The
servant of the Lord must not strive ; but be
gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient. 25.
In meekness instructing those that oppose
themselves. Tit. 3.2. Put them in mind .... to be
no brawlers. 9. Avoid foolish questions, and
genealogies, and contentions, and strivings
about the law ; for they are unprofitable and
vain. Jas. 3.14. If ye have bitter envying and
strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not
against the truth. 15. This wisdom descendeth
not from above, but is earthly, sensual,
devilish. 16. For where envying and strife is,
there is confusion and every evil work.
Jas. 4.1. From whence come wars and
lightings among you ? come they not hence,
even of your lusts that war in your members ?
2. Ye lust, and have not : ye kill, and desire to
have, and cannot obtain : ye fight and war.

power, resisteth the ordinance of God : and
they that resist shall receive to themselves
damnation. 3. For rulers are not a terror to
good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not
be afraid of the power ? do that which is good,

me, and saw my work. 10. Forty years long
was I grieved with this generation, and said,
It is a people that do err in their heart, and
they have not known my ways : 11. Unto
whom I swear in my wrath that they should
not enter into my rest. Psa. 106.7,24.
Isa. 7.9. If ye will not believe, surely ye
shall not be established. 12. Ahaz said, I will
not ask, neither will I tempt the Lord. 13.
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David ;

will ye weary my God also ?
» Isa. 8.15. Many among them shall stumble,
and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be
Isa.' 28.12. He said, This is the rest where
with ye may cause the weary to rest ; and this
is the refreshing : yet they would not hear.
Isa. 53.1. "Who hath believed our report?
and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed ?
2. When we shall see him, there is no beauty
that we should desire him. 3. He is despised
and rejected of men ; a man of sorrows, and
acquainted with grief : and we hid as it were
our faces from him ; he was despised, and we
esteemed him not.
Jer. 7.27. Thou shalt speak all these words

of publicans and sinners. Luk. 7.31-35.

Isa. 6.9,10.
Mat. 17.17. 0 faithless and perverse genera
tion, how long shall I be with you? how long
shall I suffer you?
Mat. 21.32. John came unto you in the
way of righteousness, and ye believed him
not ; but the publicans and the harlots believed

not afterward, that ye might believe him.

merchandise, v. 1-14. Luk. 14.16-24.
Mar. 6.6. He marvelled because of their
unbelief, v. 7.
Mar. 16.16. He that believeth not shall be
damned. Luk. 8.12. Those by the way-side are they
that hear ; then cometh the devil, and .taketh
away the word out of their hearts, lest they

things, and ye believe not, how shall ye be
lieve if I tell you of heavenly things ? 18. He
that believeth not is condemned already,
because he hath not believed in the name of
the only-begotten Son of God. 19. And this
is the condemnation, that light is come into

receive honour one of another, and seek not
the honour that cometh from God only? 46.

not his writings, how shall ye believe my
words? Jno. 6.36. Ye also have seen me, and
believe not. 64. There are some of you that
believe not. For Jesus knew from the begin
ning who they were that believed not. • -
Jno. 8.24. If ye believe not that I am he,
ye shall die in your sins. 45. Because I tell
you the truth, ye believe me not. 46. If I say
the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47. He
that is of God heareth God's words : ye there
fore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

come upon you, which is spoken of in the
prophets; 41. Behold, ye despisers, and
wonder, and perish : for I work a work in
your days, a work which ye shall in no wise

46. Seeing ye put it from you, and judge
yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo,
we turn to the Gentiles. Hab. 1.5.

Eom. 1.18. The wrath of God is revealed
from heaven againBt all ungodliness and un
righteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness. Rom. 9.81. Israel, which followed after
the law of righteousness, hath not attained to
the law of righteousness. 32. Wherefore ?
Because they sought it not by faith, but as it
were by the works of the law.
Horn. 10.14. How then shall they call on
him in whom they have not beheved? and
how shall they believe in him of whom they
have not heard ? 16. They have not all obeyed
the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath
believed our report? 21. But to Israel he
saith, All day long I have stretched forth my
hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying
people. Eom. 11.7. What then? Israel hath not
obtained that which he seeketh for ; but the
election hath obtained it, and the rest were
blinded. 20. Because of unbelief they were
broken off. 30. As ye in times past have not
believed God, yet have now obtained mercy
through their unbelief ; 31. Even so have
these also now not believed, that through
your mercy they also may obtain mercy. 32.
For God hath concluded them all in unbelief,
that he might have mercy upon all.
Bom. 14.23. He that doubteth is damned
if he eat, because he eateth not of faith : for
whatsoever 'is not of faith is sin.
1 Cor. 1.18. The preaching of the cross is
to them that perish foolishness. 22. The Jews
require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wis
dom : 23. But we preach Christ crucified,
unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto tho
Greeks foolishness.
1 Cor. 10.9. Neither let us tempt Christ, as
some of them also tempted, and were destroyed
of serpents.
2 Cor. 2.16. To the one we are the savour
of death unto death.
2 Cor. 4.3. If our gospel be hid, it is hid to
them that are lost : 4. . In whom the god of
this world hath blinded the minds of them
which believe not, lest the light of the glorious
gospel of Christ, who -is the image of God,
should shine unto them. >
Phil. 3.18. Many walk, of whom I have told
you often, and now tell you even weeping,
that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ :
19. Whose end is destruction.
2 The. 1.8. Taking vengeance on them that
know not God, and that obey not the gospel
of our Lord Jesus Christ : 9. Who shall be
punished with everlasting destruction from the
presence of the Lord, and from the glory of
his power.
2 The. 2.10, With all deceivableness of un
righteousness in them that perish ; because
they received not the love of the truth, that
they might be saved. 11. And for this cause
God shall send them strong delusion, that
they should believe a lie : 12. That they all
might be damned who believe not the truth,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2 The. 3.2. All men have not faith.
1 Tim. 1.13. Who was before a blasphemer, 47S

UNBELIEF
and a persecutor, and injurious : but I obtained
mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
2 Tim. 2.12. If we deny him, he also will
deny us : 13. If we believe ' not, yet he
abideth faithful r he cannot deny himself.
Tit. 1.15. Unto them that are denied and
unbelieving is nothing pure ; but .even their
mind and conscience is defiled.
Heb. 2.3. How shall we escape, if we
neglect so great salvation.
Heb. 3.12. Take heed, brethren, lest there
be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in
departing from the living God. 16. Some,
when they had heard, did provoke : howbeit
not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. 17.
But with whom was he grieved forty years?
was it not with them that had sinned, whose
carcases fell in the wilderness ? 18. And to
whom sware he that they should not enter into
his rest, but to them that believed not ? 19.
So we see that they could not enter in because
of unbelief.
Heb. 4.1. Let us therefore fear, lest, a
promise being left us of entering into his rest,
any of you should seem to come short of it.
2. For unto us was the gospel preached, as
well as unto them : but the word preached did
not profit them, not being mixed with faith in
them that heard it. 6. They to whom it was
first preached entered not in because of un
belief : 11. Let us labour therefore to enter
into that rest, lest any man fall after the same
example of unbelief.
Heb. 11.31. By faith the harlot Rahab
perished not with them that believed not.
Heb. 12.25. See that ye refuse not him that
speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused
him that spake on earth, much more shall not
we escape, if we turn away from him that
speaketh from heaven.
Jas. 1.6. But let him ask in faith, nothing
wavering : for he that wavereth is like a wave
of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7. For let not that man think that he shall
receive any thing of the Lord.
1 Pet. 2.4. A living stone, disallowed in
deed of men. 7. Unto them which be
disobedient, the stone which the builders
disallowed, the same is made the head of the
corner, 8. And a stone of stumbling, and a
rock of offence, even to them which stumble at
the word, being disobedient ; whereunto also
they were appointed.
1 Pet. 4. 17. What shall the end be of them
that obey not the gospel of God ?
1 Jno. 2.22. Who is a liar but he that
denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is anti
christ, that denieth the Father and the Son.
23. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath
not the Father.
' 1 Jno. 4.3. Every spirit that confesseth not
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of
God : and this is that spirit of antichrist,
whereof ye have heard that it should come ;
and even now already is it in the world.
1 Jno. 5.10. He that believeth not God
hath made him a liar; because he believeth
not the record that God gave of his Son. 12.
He that hath not the Son of God hath not
life. Jude 6. The Lord, having saved the people
out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed
them that believed not.
Rev. 21.8. But the fearful, and unbelieving,
476

UNCHARITABLENESS
shall have their part in the lake which burn
etii with fire and brimstone; which is the
second death.

UNCHARITABLENESS. Mat. 7.1. Judge
not, that ye be not judged. 2. For with what
judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged : and
with what measure ye mete, it shall be
measured to you again. 3. And why beholdest
thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
considerest not the beam that is in thine own
eye ? 4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother,
Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye ;
and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5.
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of
thine own eye ; and then shalt thou see clearly
to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Luk. 6.37-42.
Jno. 7.24. Judge not according to the
appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Rom. 2.1. Thou art inexcusable, O man,
whosoever thou art that judgest : for wherein
thou judgest another, thou condemnest thy
self ; for thou that judgest doest the same
things. Rom. 14.2. One believeth that he may eat
all things : another, who is weak, eateth
herbs. 3. Let not him that eateth despise
him that eateth not ; and let not him which
eateth not judge him that eateth : for God
hath received him. 4. Who art thou that
judgest another man's servant? to his own
master he standeth or faileth. Yea, he shall
be holden up : for God is able to make him
stand. 10. Why dost thou judge thy brother?
or why dost thou set at nought thy brother?
for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat
of Christ. 13. Let us not therefore judge one
another any more : but judge this rather, that
no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion
to fall in his brother's way.
1 Cor. 4 6. Judge nothing before the time,
until the Lord come, who both will bring to

brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh
evil of the law, and judgeth the law : but if

who is able to save and to destroy : who art

Act. 9.4. Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou
me? Rom. 6.3. So many of us as were baptized
into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death ?
4. Therefore we are buried with him by baptism

from the dead by the glory of the Father, even
so we also should walk in newness of life. 5.
For if we have been planted together in the
likeness of his death, we shall be also in the like
ness of his resurrection : 6. Knowing this,
that our old man is crucified with him, that
the body of sin might be destroyed, that
henceforth we should not serve sin. 8. Now,
if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we
shall also live with him. 11. Likewise reckon
ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin,
but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Rom. 7.4. My brethren, ye also are become
dead to the law by the body of Christ ; that ye
should be married to another, even to him

works. 11. Let the woman learn in silence
with all subjection. 12. But I suffer not a
woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over
the man, but to be in silence. 13. For Adam
was first formed, then Eve. 14. And Adam

that the younger women marry, bear children,
guide the house, give none occasion to the ad
versary to speak reproachfully.
Tit. 2.3. The aged women likewise, that
they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not
false accusers, not given to much wine,
teachers of good things ; 4. That they may
teach the young women to be sober, to love
their husbands, to love their children. 6. To
be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good,
obedient to their own husbands, that the word
of God be not blasphemed.
1 Pet. 3.1. Likewise, ye wives be in subjec
tion to your own husbands ; that, if any obey
not the word, they also may without the word
be won by the conversation of the wives. 2.
While they behold your chaste conversation
coupled with fear. 3. Whose adorning let it
not be that outward adorning ot plaiting the
hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on
of apparel ; 4. But let it be the hidden man of
the heart, in that which is not corruptible,
even the ornament ot a meek and quiet spirit,
which is in the sight of God of great price. 5.
For after this manner in the old time the holy
women also, who trusted in God, adorned
themselves, being in subjection unto their own
husbands : 6. Even as Sara obeyed Abraham,
calling him lord : whose daughters ye are, as
long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any

ward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus
Christ. Act. 20.22. Now, behold, I go bound in the
spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things
that shall befall me there : 23. Save that the
Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying
that bonds and afflictions abide me. 24. But
none of these things move me, neither count I
my life dearunto myself, so that I mightflnish
my course with joy, and the ministry, which I
have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the
gospel of the grace of God.
Act. 20.26. Wherefore I take you to record
this day, that I am pure from the blood of all
men. 27. For I have not shunned to declare
unto you all the counsel of God. 31. There
fore watch, and remember, that, by the space
of three years, I ceased not to warn every one
night and day with tears. 33. I have coveted
no man's silver, or gold, or apparel. 34. Yea,
ye yourselves know, that these hands have
ministered unto my necessities, and to them
that were with me. v. 7,25. Act. 19.8-10,21.
Act. 21.13.
Act. 24.25. He reasoned of righteous
ness, temperance, and judgment to come. v.
14-25. Act. 26.19. I was not disobedient unto the
heavenly vision : 20. But shewed first unto
them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and
throughout all the coasts of Judea, and then
to the Gentiles, that they should repent and
turn to God, and do works meet for repent
ance. Act. 26.22. Having therefore obtained help of
God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both
to small and great, saying none other things
than those which the prophets and Moses did
say should come : 23. That Christ should suf
fer, and that he should be the first that should
rise from the dead, and should shew light unto
the people, and to the Gentiles. 29. Paul said,
I would to God, that not only thou, but also
all that hear me this day, were both almost,
and altogether such as I am, except these
bonds, v. 1-29.
Act. 28.23. When they had appointed
him a day, there came many to him into his
lodging ; to whom he expounded and testified
the kingdom of God, persuading them concern
ing Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and
out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
30. Paul dwelt two whole years in his own
hired house, and received all that came in unto
him, 31. Preaching the kingdom of God, and
teaching those things which concern the Lord
Jesus Christ, with all confidence, v. 24-28.
Rom. 1.1. Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ,
called to be an apostle, separated unto the
gospel of God. 14. I am debtor both to the
Greeks, and to the Barbarians ; both to the
wise, and to the unwise. 15. So, as much as
511

ZEAL
in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to
you that are at Rome also. v. 9-13.
Rom. 9. 1. I say the truth in Christ, I lie not,
my conscience also bearing me witness in the
Holy Ghost. 2. That I have great heaviness
and continual sorrow in my heart. 3. For I
could wish that myself were accursed from
Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according
to the flesh.
Rom. 10.1. Brethren, my heart's desire and
prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be
saved. Rom. 11.13,14.
Rom. 15.19. From Jerusalem, and round
about unto Lllyricum, I have fully preached
the gospel of Christ. 20. Yea, so have Istrived
to preach the gospel, not where Christ was
named, lest I should build upon another man's
foundation, v. 15-32. 2 Cor. 10.14-16.
1 Cor. 1.17. Christ sent me not to baptize,
but to preach the gospel : not with wisdom
of words, lest the cross of Christ should
be made of none effect. 23. We preach Christ
crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and
unto the Greeks foolishness.
1 Cor. 2. 1. I, brethren, when I came to you,
came not with excellency of speech, or of wis
dom, declaring unto you the testimony of God:
2. For I determined not to know anything
among you, save Jesus Christ, and him cruci
fied. 3. And I was with you in weakness,
and in fear, and in much trembling. 4. And
my speech and my preaching was not with en
ticing words of man's wisdom, but in demon
stration of the Spirit and of power. 13.
Which things also we speak, not in the words
which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the
Holy Ghost teacheth ; comparing spiritual
things with spiritual, v. 6,7.
1 Cor. 3.1. I, brethren, could not speak
unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal,
even as unto babes in Christ. 2. I have fed
you with milk, and not with meat : for hitherto
ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are
ye able. v. 6-7.
1 Cor. 4.16. Labour, working with our own
hands : being reviled, we bless ; being perse
cuted, we suffer it: 13. Being defamed, we
intreat : we are made as the filth of the world
and are the offscouring of all things unto this
day. v. 1-21.
1 Cor. 9.16. Though I preach the gospel, I
have nothing to glory of : for necessity is laid
upon me ; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not
the gospel 1 18. What is my reward then ?
Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I
may make the gospel of Christ without charge,
that I abuse not my power in the gospel. 19.
Though I be free from all men, yet have I
made myself servant unto all, that I might
gain the more. 22. To the weak became I as
weak, that I might gain the weak : I am made
all things to all ntera, that I might by all
means save some. 23. And this I do for the
gospel's sake. 27. I keep under my body, and
bring it into subjection: lest that by any means,
when I have preached to others, I myself
should be a castaway, v. 12,15,17,20,21.
1 Cor. 10.33. I please all men in all things,
not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of
many, that they may be saved.
1 Cor. 11.1. Be ye followers of me, even as
I also am of Christ.
1 Cor. 13.1. Though I speak with the
tongues of men and of angels, and have not
512

ZEAL
charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a
tinkling cymbal.
1 Cor. 15.3. I delivered unto you flrst of all
that which I also received, how that Christ
died for our sins according to the .scriptures.
10. By the grace of God I am what I am :
and' his grace which was bestowed upon roe
was not in vain ; but I laboured more abund
antly than they all : yet not I, but the grace
of God which was with me. 11. Whether it
were I or they, so we preach, and so ye be
lieved. 31. 1 protest by your rejoicing which I
have in Christ Jesus our Lord,I die daily, v.1-32.
2 Cor. 1.12. Our rejoicing is this, the testi
mony of our conscience, that in simplicity and
godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but
by the grace of God, we have had our con
versation in the world, and more abundantly
to you-ward. v. 17-19,24.
2 Cor 2.17. We are not as many, which
corrupt the word of God : but as of sincerity, .
but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in
Christ, v. 12-16.
2 Cor. 3.6. Who also hath made us able
ministers of the new testament ; not of the
letter, but of the spirit : for the letter killeth,
but the spirit giveth life. 12. Seeing then
that we have such hope, we use great plain
ness of speech.
2 Cor. 4.1. Seeing we have this ministry,
as we have received mercy, we faint not ; 2.
But have renounced the hidden things of dis
honesty, not walking in craftiness, nor hand
ling the word of God deceitfully; but by mani
festation of the truth commending ourselves
to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
5. We preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus
the Lord; and ourselves your servants for
Jesus' sake. 13. We having the same spirit
of faith, according as it is written, I believed,
and therefore have I spoken ; we also believe,
and therefore speak, v. 8-15.
2 Cor. 6.11. Knowing therefore the terror
of the Lord, we persuade men ; but we are
made manifest unto God ; and I trust also are
made manifest in your consciences. 13.
Whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God :
or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
14. For the love of Christ constraineth us ;
because we thus judge, that if one died for all,
then were all dead : 20. We are ambassadors
for Christ, as though God did beseech you by ug :
we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled
to God. v. 18.
2 Cor. 6.3. Giving no offence in any thing
that the ministry be not blamed. 4. In all
things approving ourselves as the ministers of
God, in much patience, in afflictions, in neces
sities, in distresses, 6. In stripes, in imprison
ments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings,
in fastings : 6. By pureness, by knowledge, by
long suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost,
by love unfeigned, 7. By the word of truth,
by the power of God, by the armour of right
eousness on the right hand and on the left.
v. 8-10.
2 Cor. 7.2. Receive us ; we have wronged
no man, we have corrupted no man, we have
defrauded no man.
2 Cor. 10.3. Though we walk in the flesh,
we do not war after the flesh.
2 Cor. 11.9. And when I was present with
you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man :
for that which was lacking to me the brethren

ZEAL
which came from Macedonia supplied; and
in all things I have kept myself from being
burdensome unto you, and so will I keep my
self, v. 7,12,23-33.
2 Cor. 12.10. I take pleasure in infirmities,
in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions,
in distresses for Christ's sake. 14. 1 will not
be burdensome to you : for I seek not your's,
but you : 16. 1 will very gladly spend and be
spent for you ; though the more abundantly I
love you, the less I be loved. 21. Lest, when
I come again, my God will humble me among
you, and that I shaLl bewail many which have
sinned already, and have not repented, v.
17-19. 2 Cor. 13.8. We can do nothing against the
truth, but for the truth, v. 6-9.
Gal. 1.10. Do I now persuade men, or, God?
or do I seek to please men ? for if I yet pleased
men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
15. When it pleased God, who separated me
from my mother's womb, and called me by
his grace, 16. To reveal his Son in me, that
I might preach him among the heathen ; im
mediately I conferred not with flesh and
blood. Gal. 2.2. I went up by revelation, and com
municated unto them that gospel which I
preach among the Gentiles, but privately to
them which were of reputation, lest by any
means I should run, or had run, in vain. Gal.
3.1. Gal. 4.19. My little children, of whom I
travail in birth again until Christ be formed
in you. v. 11.
Gal. 5.11. I, brethren, if I yet preach cir
cumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution?
then is the offence of the cross ceased.
Eph. 6.20. For which I am an ambassador
in bonds ; that therein I may speak boldly,
as I ought to speak, v. 17. Phil. 1.17. PhiL
4.11,12,17. Phil. 1.18. What then? notwithstanding,
every way, whether in pretence, or in truth,
Christ is preached ; and I therein do rejoice,
yea, and will rejoice. 20. According to my
earnest expectation and my hope, that in
nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all
boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall
be magnified in my body, whether it be by
life, or by death. 24. To abide in the flesh is
more needful for you. 25. And having this
confldence, I know that I shall abide and con
tinue with you all for your furtherance and
joy of faith. 27. That whether I come and
see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your
affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with
one mind striving together for the faith of
the gospel, v. 22,23. Phil. 2.16,17.
Col. 1.28. Whom we preach, warning every
man, and teaching every man in all wisdom ;
that we may present every man perfect in

Col. 2.1. I would that ye knew what great
conflict I have for you, and for them at Lao-
dicea, and for as many as have not seen my
face in the flesh.
1 The. 1.5. Ye know what manner of
men we were among you for your sake. 6.
And ye became followers oi us, and of the
1 The'. 2.2. Even after that we had suffered

ZEAL
before, and were shamefully entreated, as ya
know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God
to speak unto you the gospel of God with
much contention.. 3. Our exhortation was
not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
4. As we were allowed of God to be put in
trust with the gospel, even so we speak ; not
as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our
hearts. 6-. For neither at any time used we
flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of
covetousness ; God is witness.
1 The. 2.6. Nor of men sought we glory,
neither of you nor yet of others, when we
might have been burdensome, as the apostles
of Christ. 8. Being affectionately desirous of
you, we were willing to have imparted unto
you, not the gospel of God only, but also our
own souls, because ye were dear unto us. 9.
For ye remember, brethren, our labour and
travail : for labouring night and day, because
we would not be chargeable unto any of you,
we preached unto you the gospel of God. 10.
Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily
and justly and unblameably we behaved our
selves among you that believe : 11. Ye know
how we exhorted and comforted and charged
every one of you, as a father doth his children .
2 Tim. 1.3,7,11-13.
2 The. 3.7. Yourselves know how ye ought
to follow us : for we behaved not ourselves
disorderly among you ; 8. Neither did we eat
any man's bread for nought; but wrought
with labour and travail night and day, that
we might not be chargeable to any of you :

make ourselves an ensample unto you to fol
