As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let us also bear the image of the heavenly.

On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.

Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.

Let all that you do be done in love.

If any man does not love the Lord, let him be accursed. Come, Lord.

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

Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.

Do you look at things only as they appear in front of your face? If anyone trusts in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again with himself, that, even as he is Christ's, so also we are Christ's.

Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also in deed when we are present.

But "he who boasts, let him boast in the Lord."

I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.

Through a window I was let down in a basket by the wall, and escaped his hands.

But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should proclaim to you a "good news" other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you a "good news" other than that which you received, let him be cursed.

If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another.

But let each man test his own work, and then he will take pride in himself and not in his neighbor.

But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we do not give up.

So then, as we have opportunity, let us do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of Jesus branded on my body.

"Be angry, and do not sin." Do not let the sun go down on your wrath,

Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.

Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice.

But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;

Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.

But as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.

Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Only let your manner of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is near.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

Be careful that you do not let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.

Let no man therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,

Let no one rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to God.

Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

so then let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us watch and be sober.

But let us, since we belong to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the departure comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,

For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: "If anyone will not work, neither let him eat."

Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.

Let them also first be tested; then let them serve if they are blameless.

Let servants be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in faith, and in purity.

But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to repay their parents, for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man,

If any woman who believes has widows, let her assist them, and do not let the church be burdened; that it might help those widows who are truly in need.

Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.

Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.

Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

However God's firm foundation stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness."

Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no man despise you.

Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.

Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

Again, when he brings in the firstborn into the world he says, "Let all the angels of God worship him."

Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.

Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.

Having then a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession.

Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need.

Therefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on to perfection?not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God,

let us draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,

let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,

Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

So since we are receiving a Kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us give thanks, through which we may offer service pleasing to God, with reverence and awe,

Let brotherly love continue.

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

Let us therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach.

Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name.

Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him.

But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.

For let that man not think that he will receive anything from the Lord.

But let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;

Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

This you know, my beloved brothers. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.

Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to gloom.

Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow let us go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit."

But above all things, my brothers, do not swear, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath; but let your "yes" be "yes," and your "no," "no;" so that you do not fall under judgment.

Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.

Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord,

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.

Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing;

For, "He who would love life, and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit.

Let him turn away from evil, and do good. Let him seek peace, and pursue it.

If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men's matters.

But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this name.

Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.

As for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father.

Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

Little children, let us not love in word only, neither with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes won't be harmed by the second death.
