  • 1 Cor 15:12-34 : 12 Now if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. 14 And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless, and so is your faith. 15 Furthermore, we are found to be false witnesses about God, because we have testified against God that He raised Christ from the dead, but He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised. 16 For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 18 Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. 20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also comes through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, at His coming, those who belong to Christ. 24 Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father, after He has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power. 25 For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death. 27 For He has put everything under His feet. Now when it says that 'everything' has been put under Him, it is clear that this does not include God Himself, who put everything under Christ. 28 When everything is subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subjected to the One who subjected everything to Him, so that God may be all in all. 29 Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them? 30 And why are we in danger every hour? 31 I face death every day—yes, as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32 If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus merely from a human point of view, what benefit is that to me? If the dead are not raised, 'Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.' 33 Do not be deceived: 'Bad company corrupts good morals.' 34 Wake up righteously, and do not sin, for some are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.

  • 2 Cor 2:4-5 : 4 For out of great distress and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the love I have for you more abundantly. 5 Now if anyone has caused sorrow, they have not grieved me alone but to some degree—not to overburden you—they have grieved all of you.

  • 2 Cor 11:13-15 : 13 For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be according to their deeds.
  • 2 Cor 13:9 : 9 We are glad whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be fully restored.
  • Gal 1:7-9 : 7 not that there is another gospel, but there are some who are troubling you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed! 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: if anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed! 10 For am I now trying to win the approval of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
  • Gal 2:4-6 : 4 This arose because of false brothers who were secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus, so they might bring us into bondage. 5 But we did not yield in submission to them even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might remain with you. 6 Now from those who seemed to be important—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show partiality—those of reputation contributed nothing to me.
  • Gal 2:14 : 14 But when I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all, 'If you, being a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?'
  • Gal 3:1-3 : 1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes, Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. 2 I only want to learn this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith? 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by the Spirit, are you now trying to complete it by human effort?
  • Gal 4:8-9 : 8 But in the past, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those who by nature are not gods. 9 But now, having come to know God—or rather, having been known by God—how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles, whose slaves you want to be once more? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years! 11 I fear for you, that perhaps my labor for you has been in vain. 12 I beg you, brothers: Become like me, for I also became like you. You have done me no wrong. 13 You know that it was because of a weakness in my flesh that I first preached the gospel to you. 14 And though my physical condition was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus Himself. 15 What happened to your blessedness? I testify that, if it were possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me. 16 So now, have I become your enemy because I am telling you the truth? 17 They are zealous for you, but not in a good way. They want to exclude you, so that you might be zealous for them. 18 It is good to be eagerly sought after for a good purpose always, and not just when I am present with you. 19 My dear children, I am again suffering birth pains for you until Christ is formed in you. 20 I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
  • Gal 5:2-4 : 2 Listen! I, Paul, say to you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you. 3 Again I declare to every man who allows himself to be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law. 4 You who are justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
  • Gal 6:2 : 2 Carry one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
  • 1 Thess 3:5-8 : 5 For this reason, when I could no longer endure it, I sent to know about your faith, lest somehow the tempter had tempted you and our labor might have been in vain. 6 But now Timothy has come to us from you and has brought us good news about your faith and love, and that you always have good remembrance of us, longing to see us, just as we also long to see you. 7 For this reason, brothers, in all our distress and affliction, we were comforted about you through your faith. 8 For now we live, if you stand firm in the Lord.
  • 2 John 1:10-11 : 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or greet him. 11 For the one who greets him shares in his wicked works.
  • Jude 1:3-4 : 3 Dear friends, although I was eager to write to you about our common salvation, I felt it necessary instead to write and urge you to contend earnestly for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain people have secretly slipped in among you—those who were written about long ago as being destined for this condemnation. They are ungodly, turning the grace of our God into a license for immorality and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

  • Rev 2:20 : 20 But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching, she misleads my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
  • Rev 3:15-18 : 15 I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish that you were either cold or hot. 16 So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth. 17 Because you say, 'I am rich, I have become wealthy, and I don’t need anything,' yet you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked. 18 I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire so that you may become rich; white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not be exposed; and ointment to anoint your eyes so that you may see.
  • Num 25:6-9 : 6 Then an Israelite man brought a Midianite woman into his family, in the sight of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel, while they were weeping at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 7 When Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw this, he rose from among the assembly, took a spear in his hand, 8 followed the Israelite man into the tent, and drove the spear through both of them—the Israelite man and the woman—into her belly. Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped. 9 But those who died in the plague numbered twenty-four thousand. 10 The LORD said to Moses, 11 'Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned back my wrath from the Israelites by being as zealous as I am for my honor among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in my zeal.'
  • Ezra 9:1-3 : 1 When these things were completed, the officials approached me and said, 'The people of Israel, including the priests and Levites, have not separated themselves from the surrounding peoples and their detestable practices, like those of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites, Ammonites, Moabites, Egyptians, and Amorites.' 2 They have taken some of their daughters as wives for themselves and their sons, and they have mingled the holy seed with the peoples of the lands. Furthermore, the leaders and officials have been foremost in this unfaithfulness. 3 When I heard this, I tore my garment and my robe, pulled out some of the hair from my head and beard, and sat down appalled.
  • Neh 5:6-9 : 6 When I heard their outcry and these words, I became extremely angry. 7 I took counsel with myself, and then I confronted the nobles and officials, saying to them, 'You are exacting interest from your own people!' So I called together a large assembly to deal with them. 8 I said to them, 'We have redeemed our fellow Jews who were sold to the nations, as much as we were able. Now, you are selling your own people, only for them to be sold back to us!' They stayed silent, unable to say a word. 9 Then I said, 'What you are doing is not right. Shouldn’t you walk in the fear of our God to avoid the reproach of the nations, our enemies?' 10 I and my brothers and my men are also lending money and grain, but let us stop charging interest on them. 11 Return to them this very day their fields, vineyards, olive groves, and houses, as well as the interest you are charging them—on the money, grain, new wine, and olive oil. 12 'We will give it back,' they responded, 'and we will not demand anything more from them. We will do as you say.' Then I summoned the priests and made the nobles and officials take an oath to do what they had promised. 13 I also shook out the fold of my garment and said, 'May God likewise shake out every man who does not uphold this promise from his home and his possessions. Let him be shaken out and left empty!' The entire assembly said, 'Amen,' and they praised the LORD. And the people did as they had promised.
  • Neh 13:15-20 : 15 In those days, I saw people in Judah treading winepresses on the Sabbath, bringing in heaps of grain, loading them on donkeys, as well as carrying wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of burdens, bringing them into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. So, I warned them on the day they were selling their provisions. 16 People from Tyre who lived there were bringing in fish and all kinds of merchandise and selling them on the Sabbath to the people of Judah and in Jerusalem. 17 I reprimanded the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this wicked thing you are doing—profaning the Sabbath day? 18 Didn’t your ancestors do the same, so that our God brought all this disaster upon us and upon this city? Now you are stirring up more wrath against Israel by desecrating the Sabbath!" 19 When evening shadows fell on the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I ordered the doors to be shut and directed that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. I stationed some of my men at the gates so that no load could be brought in on the Sabbath day. 20 Once or twice, the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares spent the night outside Jerusalem.
  • Neh 13:23-25 : 23 Additionally, in those days I saw Jews who had married women from Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab. 24 Half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod or the language of other peoples, but they could not speak the language of Judah. 25 So I confronted them, cursed them, struck some of them, pulled out their hair, and made them swear by God: 'You must not give your daughters in marriage to their sons or take their daughters for your sons or yourselves.'
  • John 2:17 : 17 Then His disciples remembered that it is written: 'Zeal for Your house will consume me.'
  • Rom 12:15 : 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.
  • Rom 15:1 : 1 We who are strong ought to bear with the weaknesses of those who are weak, and not to please ourselves.
  • 1 Cor 5:1-5 : 1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and a kind of immorality that is not even found among the Gentiles—a man is sleeping with his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud! Shouldn't you rather have mourned so that the one who has done this would be removed from among you? 3 For though I am absent in body, I am present in spirit, and I have already passed judgment on the one who has committed this act, as if I were present. 4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit is with you, along with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
  • 1 Cor 6:5-7 : 5 I say this to your shame. Is there not one wise person among you who is able to judge between fellow believers? 6 But instead, one brother goes to law against another, and this in front of unbelievers! 7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
  • 1 Cor 6:15-18 : 15 Don't you know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16 Or do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one body with her? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh." 17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with Him in spirit. 18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every sin a person commits is outside the body, but the one who sins sexually sins against their own body.
