But when he came to his senses he said, 'How many of my father's hired workers have food enough to spare, but here I am dying from hunger!

But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and blood and water flowed out immediately.

Now a man named Ananias, together with Sapphira his wife, sold a piece of property.

Peter said to her, "Tell me, were the two of you paid this amount for the land?" Sapphira said, "Yes, that much."

Indeed, he who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all -- how will he not also, along with him, freely give us all things?

For if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps he will not spare you.

For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of you a measure of faith.

But if you marry, you have not sinned. And if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face difficult circumstances, and I am trying to spare you such problems.

Now when you come together at the same place, you are not really eating the Lord's Supper.

For when it is time to eat, everyone proceeds with his own supper. One is hungry and another becomes drunk.

In the same way, he also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, every time you drink it, in remembrance of me."

Sober up as you should, and stop sinning! For some have no knowledge of God -- I say this to your shame!

Now I appeal to God as my witness, that to spare you I did not come again to Corinth.

For I consider myself not at all inferior to those "super-apostles."

I have become a fool. You yourselves forced me to do it, for I should have been commended by you. For I lack nothing in comparison to those "super-apostles," even though I am nothing.

I said before when I was present the second time and now, though absent, I say again to those who sinned previously and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare anyone,

So then we must not sleep as the rest, but must stay alert and sober.

But since we are of the day, we must stay sober by putting on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet our hope for salvation.

And let us take thought of how to spur one another on to love and good works,

Therefore, get your minds ready for action by being fully sober, and set your hope completely on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

For the culmination of all things is near. So be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of prayer.

Be sober and alert. Your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is on the prowl looking for someone to devour.

For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but threw them into hell and locked them up in chains in utter darkness, to be kept until the judgment,

and if he did not spare the ancient world, but did protect Noah, a herald of righteousness, along with seven others, when God brought a flood on an ungodly world,
