Now to Abraham and his descendant were the promises made. He says not, And to descendants, as of many; but as of one, And to your descendant, who is Christ.

For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

But the scripture has consigned all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

But after faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.

But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

Therefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

But then, when you knew not God, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods.

But now, after you have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?

And my trial which was in my flesh you despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

They are zealous of you, but not for good; yea, they would exclude you, that you might be zealous of them.

But it is good to be zealous always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.

But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the free woman was by promise.

But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.

But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love.

I have confidence in you through the Lord, that you will not be otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.

For, brethren, you have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you be not consumed one of another.

But if you be led of the Spirit, you are not under the law.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

But God forbid that I should glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come:

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near by the blood of Christ.

Now therefore you are no more strangers and sojourners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, even Christ:

But you have not so learned Christ;

Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needs.

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becomes saints;

Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not fitting: but rather giving of thanks.

For you were once darkness, but now are you light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever does make manifest is light.

See then that you walk carefully, not as fools, but as wise,

Therefore be not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

And be not drunk with wine, in which is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord the church:

This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

And, you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Not with eye service, as men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in heavenly places.

But that you also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:

But I wish you to understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have served rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel.

According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor: yet what I shall choose I know not.

And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

Let nothing be done through strife or vain glory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves.

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.

But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.

But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.

Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labor, and fellow soldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

For indeed he was sick near unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not troublesome, but for you it is safe.

But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.

Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but rubbish, that I may win Christ,

And be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if indeed I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

Be anxious for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me has flourished again; in which you were also concerned, but you lacked opportunity.

Now you Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only.

Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

But now you also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy talk out of your mouth.

Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eye service, as men pleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:

But he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong which he has done: and there is no respect of persons.

For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance; as you know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak anything.

But even after we had suffered before, and were shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much opposition.

But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherishes her children:

So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because you were dear unto us.

For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when you received the word of God which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually works also in you that believe.

But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.

Therefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.

But now when Timothy came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and love, and that you have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:

For God has not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

He therefore that despises, despises not man, but God, who has also given unto us his Holy Spirit.

But concerning brotherly love you need not that I write unto you: for you yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
