For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

Of whom we have much to say which it is hard to make clear, because you are slow of hearing.

So that you may not be slow in heart, but may take as your example those to whom God has given their heritage, because of their faith and their long waiting.

In a very little time he who is coming will come; he will not be slow.

But the upright man will be living by his faith; and if he goes back, my soul will have no pleasure in him.

But we are not of those who go back to destruction; but of those who have faith even to the salvation of the soul.
