Now he that establisheth us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God;

Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord,

Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Now he that wrought us for this very thing is God, who gave unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

(for he saith, At an acceptable time I hearkened unto thee, And in a day of salvation did I succor thee: behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation):

Now for a recompense in like kind (I speak as unto my children), be ye also enlarged.

I now rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye were made sorry unto repentance; for ye were made sorry after a godly sort, that ye might suffer loss by us in nothing.

But now complete the doing also; that as there was the readiness to will, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.

and we have sent with them our brother, whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he hath in you.

Now I Paul myself entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being absent am of good courage toward you:

I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, to them that have sinned heretofore, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;

Now we pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is honorable, though we be as reprobate.
