The Bishop, then, is to be a man of good name, the husband of one wife, self-controlled, serious-minded, having respect for order, opening his house freely to guests, a ready teacher;

But opening his house freely to guests; a lover of what is good, serious-minded, upright, holy, self-controlled;

To the young men give orders to be wise and serious-minded:

Because it is God's pleasure that foolish and narrow-minded men may be put to shame by your good behaviour:

A serious-minded man, fearing God with all his family; he gave much money to the poor, and made prayer to God at all times.

For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.

Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in harmony and of one mind;

Then let us all, who have come to full growth, be of this mind: and if in anything you are of a different mind, even this will God make clear to you:

And self-control to knowledge, and a quiet mind to self-control, and fear of God to a quiet mind,

And because they had not the mind to keep God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;

For the good which I have a mind to do, I do not: but the evil which I have no mind to do, that I do.

For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:

And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.

What then? let my prayer be from the spirit, and equally from the mind; let my song be from the spirit, and equally from mind.

My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.

This man puts one day before another: to that man they are the same. Let every man be certain in his mind.

Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.

Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:

Now I make request to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you will all say the same thing, and that there may be no divisions among you, so that you may be in complete agreement, in the same mind and in the same opinion.

But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:

But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:

And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.

But the man who is strong in mind and purpose, who is not forced but has control over his desires, does well if he comes to the decision to keep her a virgin.

Still, all men have not that knowledge: but some, being used till now to the image, are conscious that they are taking food which has been offered to the image; and because they are not strong in the faith, their minds are troubled.

Or has he us in mind? Yes, it was said for us; because it is right for the ploughman to do his ploughing in hope, and for him who is crushing the grain to do his work hoping for a part in the fruits of it.

Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So let your minds be fixed on the reward.

For it is my desire, my brothers, that you may keep in mind how all our fathers were under the cloud, and they all went through the sea;

But it is important for you to keep this fact in mind, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

And he said to him, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

Only it was their desire that we would give thought to the poor; which very thing I had much in mind to do.

I am certain about you in the Lord, that you will be of no other mind; but he who is troubling you will have his punishment, whoever he is.

For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith,

Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands

Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers;

Among whom we all at one time were living in the pleasures of our flesh, giving way to the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and the punishment of God was waiting for us even as for the rest.

For this reason keep it in mind that in the past you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are looked on as being outside the circumcision by those who have circumcision, in the flesh, made by hands;

This I say, then, and give witness in the Lord, that you are to go no longer in the way of the Gentiles whose minds are turned to that which has no profit,

And be made new in the spirit of your mind,

Not looking everyone to his private good, but keeping in mind the things of others.

Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,

For I have no man of like mind who will truly have care for you.

Whose end is destruction, whose god is the stomach, and whose glory is in their shame, whose minds are fixed on the things of the earth.

I make request to Euodias and Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.

And the peace of God, which is deeper than all knowledge, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

And you, who in the past were cut off and at war with God in your minds through evil works, he has now made one

Let no man take your reward from you by consciously making little of himself and giving worship to angels; having his thoughts fixed on the things which he has seen, being foolishly lifted up in his natural mind,

Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.

Having ever in mind your work of faith and acts of love and the strength of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

Because you have in mind the orders we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

Brothers, keep us in mind in your prayers.

So that we ourselves take pride in you in the churches of God for your untroubled mind and your faith in all the troubles and sorrows which you are going through;

That you may not be moved in mind or troubled by a spirit, or by a word, or by a letter as from us, with the suggestion that the day of the Lord is even now come;

But the Spirit says clearly that in later times some will be turned away from the faith, giving their minds to spirits of deceit, and the teachings of evil spirits,

If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:

Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.

But true faith, with peace of mind, is of great profit:

But you, O man of God, keep yourself from these things, and go after righteousness, religion, faith, love, a quiet mind, gentle behaviour.

Give orders to those who have money and goods in this life, not to be lifted up in their minds, or to put their hope in the uncertain chances of wealth, but in God who gives us in full measure all things for our use;

Through which some, who gave their minds to it, have been turned away from the faith. Grace be with you.

Having in mind your true faith, which first was in your mother's mother Lois, and in your mother Eunice, and, I am certain, is now in you.

Keep in mind Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, who came back from the dead, as my good news gives witness:

False to their friends, acting without thought, lifted up in mind, loving pleasure more than God;

But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.

And as James and Jambres went against Moses, so do these go against what is true: men of evil minds, who, tested by faith, are seen to be false.

To the clean in heart all things are clean: but to those who are unclean and without faith nothing is clean; they become unclean in mind and in thought.

That old men are to be simple in their tastes, serious, wise, true in faith, in love, and of a quiet mind.

To be wise in mind, clean in heart, kind; working in their houses, living under the authority of their husbands; so that no evil may be said of the word of God.

What will come on us, if we do not give our minds to such a great salvation? a salvation of which our fathers first had knowledge through the words of the Lord, and which was made certain to us by those to whom his words came;

But a certain writer has given his witness, saying, What is man, that you keep him in mind? what is the son of man, that you take him into account?

For this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days: I will put my laws into their minds, writing them in their hearts: and I will be their God, and they will be my people:

And I will have mercy on their evil-doing, and I will not keep their sins in mind.

This is the agreement which I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws in their hearts, writing them in their minds; he said,

And truly if they had kept in mind the country from which they went out, they would have had chances of turning back.

And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him;

Keep in mind those who are in chains, as if you were chained with them, and those who are in trouble, as being yourselves in the body.

Keep in mind those who were over you, and who gave you the word of God; seeing the outcome of their way of life, let your faith be like theirs.

And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.

And to have love for him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to have the same love for his neighbour as for himself, is much more than all forms of offerings.

And in the same minute, the cock gave a second cry. And it came to Peter's mind how Jesus had said to him, Before the cock's second cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And at this thought he was overcome with weeping.

For there is a division in his mind, and he is uncertain in all his ways.

Is there not a division in your minds? have you not become judges with evil thoughts?

Come near to God and he will come near to you. Make your hands clean, you evil-doers; put away deceit from your hearts, you false in mind.

So make your minds ready, and keep on the watch, hoping with all your power for the grace which is to come to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

Who will do you any damage if you keep your minds fixed on what is good?

So that as Jesus was put to death in the flesh, do you yourselves be of the same mind; for the death of the flesh puts an end to sin;

Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;

And it seems right to me, as long as I am in this tent of flesh, to keep your minds awake by working on your memory;

My loved ones, this is now my second letter to you, and in this as in the first, I am attempting to keep your true minds awake;

So that you may keep in mind the words of the holy prophets in the past, and the law of the Lord and Saviour which was given to you by his Apostles.

But in taking this view they put out of their minds the memory that in the old days there was a heaven, and an earth lifted out of the water and circled by water, by the word of God;

But, my loved ones, keep in mind this one thing, that with the Lord one day is the same as a thousand years, and a thousand years are no more than one day.

His help he has given to Israel, his servant, so that he might keep in mind his mercy to Abraham and his seed for ever,

And all who had word of them kept them in their minds and said, What will this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.

To do acts of mercy to our fathers and to keep in mind his holy word,

So if I come, I will keep in mind the things he does, talking against us with evil words: and as if this was not enough, he does not take the brothers into his house, and those who are ready to take them in, he keeps from doing so, putting them out of the church if they do.

Now it is my purpose to put you in mind, though you once had knowledge of all these things, of how the Lord, having taken a people safely out of Egypt, later sent destruction on those who had no faith;

So keep in mind where you were at first, and be changed in heart and do the first works; or I will come to you, and will take away your light from its place, if your hearts are not changed.

And I gave her time for a change of heart, but she has no mind to give up her unclean ways.

Keep in mind, then, the teaching which was given to you, and be ruled by it and have a change of heart. If then you do not keep watch, I will come like a thief, and you will have no knowledge of the hour when I will come on you.
