For that which I do, I allow not: for I do not that which I would; but what I hate, this I do. And if I do that which I would not, I consent to the law that it is good:

For I know that in me (that is in my flesh) dwelleth no good: for to will is present with me, but how to perform that which is good, I find not.

for unto this day the same veil remaineth unremoved in the reading of the old testament, which veil is taken away in Christ.

Having therefore, my beloved, these promises, let us purify ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

who, being past feeling, have given themselves up to lasciviousness, to commit all uncleanness with greediness.

which according to your former conversation was corrupted with deceitful lusts,

But fornication, and all uncleanness, or inordinate desire, let it not be even named among you; for so it becometh saints:

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave up Himself for it:

I would therefore have the younger widows marry, bear children, manage houshold affairs, and give no occasion to the adversary for reproach.

But they, that will be rich, fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which plunge men into ruin and perdition.

Whom I would gladly have kept with me, that he might have ministered unto me as thou wouldst have done, in the bonds of the gospel.

Who being the refulgence of his glory and the imprest image of his person, and sustaining all things by his powerful word, having by Himself performed the purging away of our sins, sat down at the right hand of the majesty on high.

For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received it's just recompence;

For the word of God is lively and efficacious, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of the very joints and marrow, and judging the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Wherefore omitting the discourse about the first principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us proceed to perfection: not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works,

and of the good word of God,

Wherefore God being willing more abundantly to manifest unto the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it with an oath:

For such an high-priest was meet for us, who was holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and higher than the heavens;

who worship under the representation and shadow of heavenly things; as Moses was ordered by God, when he was about to finish the tabernacle. For see, saith He, that thou make all according to the model shewn thee in the mount.

And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood; and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

For then they would have ceased to be offered, because the sacrificers, being once purified, would no longer retain any consciousness of sins.

For then they would have ceased to be offered, because the sacrificers, being once purified, would no longer retain any consciousness of sins.

for after He had said, "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and on their minds will I inscribe them; He adds, and their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more." read more. Now where there is such a remission of these, there needs no more offering for sin.
