Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,

For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical.

But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel,

For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh--

Blessed is the man against whom the LORDcounts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

Truly God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.

So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander.

and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are blameless.
