First, indeed, I give thanks unto my God, through Jesus Christ, concerning you all, because your faith is being announced throughout the whole world.

For the name of God, because of you, is defamed among the nations, - even as it is written.

And, our hope, putteth not to shame. Because, the love of God, hath been poured out in our hearts, through the Holy Spirit that hath been given unto us:

What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law but under favour? Far be it!

In human fashion am I speaking, because of the weakness of your flesh; - for, just as ye presented your members as servants unto impurity and unto lawlessness for lawlessness, so now, present ye your members as servants unto righteousness for sanctification.

Neither, because they are seed of Abraham, are all children, - but, In Isaac, shall there be called unto thee a seed.

Wherefore? Because, not by faith but as by works, have they sought it : they have stumbled at the stone of stumbling,

Because, of him, and through him, and unto him, are all things: - unto him, be the glory, unto the ages. Amen!

Wherefore it is necessary to be in subjection, - not only because of the anger, but also because of the conscience;

For, because of this, are ye paying tribute also, - for, God's ministers of state, they are, unto this very thing, giving constant attendance.

If, in fact, because of food, thy brother is being grieved, no longer, by the rule of love, art thou walking: - do not, by thy food, that man, be destroying, on whose behalf Christ died!

But, he that is in doubt, if he eat, hath condemned himself, - because, it was not of faith, and, everything which is not of faith, is sin.
