Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God. For we have testified of God how that he raised up Christ, whom he raised not up, if it be so that the dead rise not up again.

For if the dead rise not again, then is Christ not risen again.

If it be so that Christ rose not, then is your faith in vain, and yet are ye in your sins.

And thereto, they which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

If in this life only we believe on Christ, then are we, of all men, the miserablest.

But now is Christ risen from the dead, and is become the first fruits of them that slept.

For as by Adam all die; even so by Christ, shall all be made alive,

and every man in his own order: The first is Christ, then they that are Christ's at his coming.

By our rejoicing, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

But thanks be unto God, which hath given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, the same be anathema. Maranatha.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

My love be with you all in Christ Jesus, Amen. {The end of the First Epistle unto the Corinthians, Sent from Philippi, by Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, and Timothy.}

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and brother Timothy. Unto the congregation of God, which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:

Grace be with you and peace from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be God the father of our Lord Jesus the Christ, father of mercy, and the God of all comfort,

For as the afflictions of Christ are plenteous in us: even so is our consolation plenteous by Christ.

For God's son Jesus Christ which was preached among you by us - that is to say, by me and Silvanus and Timothy - was not "yea" and "nay": but in him it was "Yea."

For it is God which establisheth us and you in Christ, and hath anointed us,

To whom ye forgive anything, I forgive also. And verily if I forgive anything, to whom I forgave it for your sakes forgave I it, in the room of Christ,

When I was come to Troas for Christ's gospel's sake - and a great door was opened unto me of the Lord -

Thanks be unto God which always giveth us the victory in Christ, and openeth the savor of his knowledge by us in every place.

For we are unto God the sweet savor of Christ, both among them that are saved, and also among them which perish:

For we are not as many are, which chop and change with the word of God: but even out of pureness, and by the power of God and in the sight of God, so speak we in Christ.

in that ye are known, how that ye are the epistle of Christ, ministered by us and written not with ink, but with the spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart.

Such trust have we through Christ to Godward:

But their minds were blinded. For until this day remaineth the same covering, untaken away, in the old testament when they read it - which in Christ is put away:

in whom the God of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest should shine unto them the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, which is the image of God.

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus to be the Lord, and preach ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

For it is God that commanded the light to shine out of darkness, which hath shined in our hearts, for to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every man may receive the works of his body according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, if one be dead for all, that then are all dead:

Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh. Insomuch that though we have known Christ after the flesh, now henceforth know we him so no more.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things are passed away: behold, all things are become new.

Nevertheless, all things are of God, which hath reconciled us unto himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given unto us the office to preach the atonement.

For God was in Christ, and made agreement between the world and himself, and imputed not their sins unto them: and hath committed to us the preaching of the atonement.

Now then are we messengers in the room of Christ: even as though God did beseech you through us. So pray we you, in Christ's stead, that ye be at one with God:

What concord hath Christ with Belial? Either, what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

Ye know the liberality of our Lord Jesus Christ, which though he were rich, yet for your sakes became poor: that ye through his poverty might be made rich.

hath caused me this to do: partly for Titus' sake - which is my fellow, and helper as concerning you - partly because of others which are our brethren, and the messengers of the congregations, and the glory of Christ.

which praise God for the obedience of your professing the gospel of Christ, and for your singleness, in distributing to them, and to all men.

I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and softness of Christ, which when I am present among you, am of no reputation, but am bold toward you being absent.

wherewith we overthrow imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity all understanding to the obedience of Christ,

Look ye on things after the outer appearance? If any man trust in himself that he is Christ's, let the same also consider of himself, that as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.

For we stretch not out ourselves beyond measure as though we had not reached unto you. For even unto you have we come with the gospel of Christ,

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy. For I coupled you to one man, to make you a chaste virgin to Christ:

But I fear, lest as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, even so your wits should be corrupt from the singleness that is in Christ.

If the truth of Christ be in me, this rejoicing shall not be taken from me in the regions of Achaia.

For these false apostles are deceitful workers, and fashion themselves like unto the apostles of Christ.

They are the ministers of Christ - I speak as a fool - I am more: In labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prison more plenteously,

The God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

I know a man in Christ above fourteen years agone - whether he were in the body I cannot tell, or whether he were out of the body I cannot tell; God knoweth - which was taken up into the third heaven.

and he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect through weakness." Very gladly therefore will I rejoice of my weakness, that the strength of Christ may dwell in me.

Therefore have I delectation in infirmities, in rebukes, in need, in persecutions, in anguish, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves? We speak in Christ in the sight of God. But we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.

seeing that ye seek experience of Christ which speaketh in me, which among you is not weak, but is mighty in you.

Prove yourselves whether ye are in the faith or not. Examine your own selves: know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be castaways?

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the holy ghost, be with you all. Amen. {The end of the Second Epistle unto the Corinthians, Sent from Philippi, a city in Macedonia, by Titus and Luke}

Paul an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and by God the father which raised him from death,

Grace be with you and peace from God the father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

I marvel that ye are so soon turned from him that called you in the grace of Christ, unto another gospel:

which is nothing else, but that there be some which trouble you, and intend to pervert the gospel of Christ.

Preach I man's doctrine or God's? Other go I about to please men? If I studied to please men, I were not the servant of Christ.

neither received I it of man, neither was I taught it: but received it by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

and was unknown, as touching my person, unto the congregations of Jewry, which were in Christ.

and that because of incomers, being false brethren, which came in among others to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage.

know that a man is not justified by the deeds of the law: but by the faith of Jesus Christ - and therefore we have believed on Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ and not by the deeds of the law: because that no flesh shall be justified by the deeds of the law.

If then, while we seek to be made righteous by Christ, we ourselves are found sinners, is not then Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

I am crucified with Christ. I live verily, yet now not I, but Christ liveth in me. For the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the son of God, which loved me, and gave himself for me.

I despise not the grace of God: For if righteousness come of the law, then is Christ died in vain.

O foolish Galatians: who hath bewitched you, that ye should not believe the truth, to whom Jesus Christ was described before the eyes, and among you crucified?

But Christ hath delivered us from the curse of the law, and was made accursed for us - for it is written, "Cursed is everyone that hangeth on tree" -

that the blessing of Abraham might come on the gentiles through Jesus Christ, and that we might receive the promise of the spirit through faith.

To Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, "in the seeds," as in many: But, "in thy seed," as in one, which is Christ.

This I say, that the law which began afterward, beyond four hundred and thirty years, doth not disannul the testament, that was confirmed afore of God unto Christ ward, to make the promise of none effect.

But the scripture concluded all things under sin, that the promise by the faith of Jesus Christ should be given unto them that believe.

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster unto the time of Christ, that we might be made righteous by faith.

For ye are all the sons of God, by the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

For all ye that are baptised, have put on Christ.

Now is there no Jew, neither gentile, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither man nor woman: but ye are all one thing in Christ Jesus.

If ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs by promise.

Wherefore now art thou not a servant, but a son. If thou be the son, thou art also the heir of God through Christ.

And my temptation which I suffered by reason of my flesh, ye despised not, neither abhorred, but received me as an angel of God: yea as Christ Jesus.

My little children - of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be fashioned in you -

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and wrap not yourselves again in the yoke of bondage.

Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing at all.

Ye are gone quite from Christ as many as are justified by the law, and are fallen from grace.

For in Jesus Christ, neither is circumcision anything worth, neither yet uncircumcision: but faith, which by love is mighty in operation.

They that are Christ's have crucified the flesh, with the appetites and lusts.

Bear ye one another's burden; and so fulfill the law of Christ.

As many as desire with outward appearance to please carnally, they constrain you to be circumcised, only because they would not suffer persecution with the cross of Christ.

God forbid that I should rejoice but in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, whereby the world is crucified as touching me, and I as concerning the world.

For in Christ Jesus nether circumcision availeth any thing at all nor uncircumcision: but a new creature.

Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, Amen. {Unto the Galatians, Written from Rome}

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God. To the saints which are at Ephesus, and to them which believe on Jesus Christ.

Grace be with you and peace from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be God the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which hath blessed us with all manner of spiritual blessings in heavenly things by Christ,

And ordained us before unto himself that we should be chosen before, through Jesus Christ, to be heirs unto himself according to the pleasure of his will,

the same in himself to have it declared when the time were full come: that all things, both the things which are in heaven, and also the things which are in earth, should be gathered together, even in Christ. That is to say, in him

that we should be unto the praise of his glory, which before believed in Christ.
