What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under the law: but under grace? God forbid.

But now are ye delivered from sin, and made the servants of God, and have your fruit that ye should be sanctified; and the end: everlasting life.

For the reward of sin is death: but eternal life is the gift of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

So then, if while the man liveth she couple herself with another man, she shall be counted a wedlock-breaker. But if the man be dead she is free from the law: so that she is no wedlock-breaker, though she couple herself with another man.

But now are we delivered from the law, and dead from that whereunto we were in bondage: that we should serve in a new conversation of the spirit, and not in the old conversation of the letter.

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid: but I knew not what sin meant but by the law. For I had not known what lust had meant, except the law had said, "Thou shalt not lust."

But sin took an occasion by the means of the commandment, and wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For verily, without the law sin was dead.

I once lived without law: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I was dead.

For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin:

because I know not what I do. For what I would, that do I not: but what I hate, that do I.

So then, now it is not I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

For I know that in me, that is to say, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing. To will is present with me: but I find no means to perform that which is good.

For I do not that good thing which I would: but that evil do I, which I would not.

Finally, if I do that I would not, then is it not I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me doeth it.

But I see another law in my members rebelling against the law of my mind, and subduing me unto the law of sin, which is in my members.

There is, then, no damnation to them which are in Christ Jesus: which walk not after the flesh but after the spirit:

that the righteousness required of the law might be fulfilled in us, which walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit.

For they that are carnal, are carnally minded; But they that are spiritual are spiritually minded.

To be carnally minded is death; But to be spiritually minded is life, and peace:

But ye are not given to the flesh; But to the spirit: If so be that the spirit of God dwell in you. If there be any man that hath not the spirit of Christ, the same is none of his.

If Christ be in you: the body is dead, because of sin; But the spirit is life for righteousness' sake.

For if ye live after the flesh, ye must die. But if ye mortify the deeds of the body, by the help of the spirit, ye shall live,

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage to fear anymore, but ye have received the spirit of adoption whereby we cry, "Abba father."

because the creatures are subdued to vanity against their will: but for his will which subdueth them in hope.

Not they only, but even we also: which have the first fruits of the spirit mourn in ourselves and wait for the adoption and look for the deliverance of our bodies.

For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is no hope. For how can a man hope for that which he seeth?

But and if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience abide for it.

Likewise, the spirit also helpeth our infirmities. For we know not, what to desire as we ought: but the spirit maketh intercession mightily for us with groanings which cannot be expressed with tongue.

Which spared not his own son, but gave him for us all: How shall he not with him give us all things also?

Neither are they all children straightway because they are the seed of Abraham: But in Isaac shall thy seed be called,

that is to say; They which are the children of the flesh, are not the children of God. But the children of promise are counted the seed.

Neither was it so with her only: but also when Rebecca was with child by one, I mean by our father Isaac,

yer the children were born, when they had neither done good neither bad - that the purpose of God, which is by election, might stand - it was said unto her, not by the reason of works, but by grace of the caller,

As it is written, "Jacob he loved, but Esau he hated."

So lieth it not then in a man's will, or cunning, but in the mercy of God.

But O man what art thou, which disputest with God? Shall the work say to the workman, "Why hast thou made me on this fashion?"

that is to say, us which he called, not of the Jews only, but also of the gentiles.

But Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet shall a remnant be saved.

But Israel, which followed the law of righteousness, could not attain unto the law of righteousness.

And wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith: but as it were, by the works of the law. For they have stumbled at the stumbling stone.

For I bear them record, that they have a fervent mind to Godward, but not according to knowledge.

But the righteousness which cometh of faith, speaketh on this wise, "Say not in thine heart, 'who shall ascend into heaven?'" That is nothing else than to fetch Christ down.

Or, "Who shall descend into the deep?" That is nothing else but to fetch up Christ from death.

But what saith the scripture? "The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth and in thine heart." This word is the word of faith which we preach.

But how shall they call on him, on whom they believed not? How shall they believe on him of whom they have not heard? How shall they hear without a preacher?

But they have not all obeyed to the gospel. For Isaiah saith, "Lord, who shall believe our sayings?"

But I ask, Have they not heard? No doubt, their sound went out into all lands: and their words into the ends of the world.

But I demand whether Israel did know or not? First Moses saith, "I will provoke you for to envy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you."

And against Israel he saith, "All day long have I stretched forth my hands unto a people that believeth not, but speaketh against me."

But what saith the answer of God to him again? "I have reserved unto me seven thousand men which have not bowed their knees to Baal."

What then? Israel hath not obtained that that he sought. No but yet the election hath obtained it. The remnant are blinded,

I say then, Have they therefore stumbled that they should but fall only? God forbid: but through their fall is salvation happened unto the gentiles for to provoke them withal.

For if the casting away of them, be the reconciling of the world: what shall the receiving of them be, but life again from death?

boast not thyself against the branches. For if thou boast thyself, remember that thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

Thou sayest well: because of unbelief they are broken off, and thou standest steadfast in faith. Be not high minded, but fear:

Behold the kindness and rigorousness of God: on them which fell, rigorousness: but towards thee, kindness; if thou continue in his kindness. Or else thou shalt be hewn off,

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are loved for the fathers' sake.

And fashion not yourselves like unto this world: But be changed through the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what thing that good, that acceptable, and perfect will of God is.

For I say, through the grace that unto me is given, to every man among you: that no man esteem of himself more than it becometh him to esteem - But that he discreetly judge of himself according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Bless them which persecute you: bless, but curse not.

Be of like affection one towards another. Be not high minded, but make yourselves equal to them of the lower sort. Be not wise in your own opinions.

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves but give room unto the wrath of God. For it is written, "Vengeance is mine, and I will reward, saith the Lord."

Be not overcome of evil: But overcome evil with goodness.

Let every soul submit himself unto the authority of the higher powers. For there is no power, but of God. The powers that be, are ordained of God.

For rulers are not to be feared for good works but for evil. Wilt thou be without fear of the power? Do well then: and so shalt thou be praised of the same.

For he is the minister of God, for thy wealth. But and if thou do evil, then fear: for he beareth not a sword for nought; but is the minister of God, to take vengeance on them that do evil.

Wherefore ye must needs obey, not for fear of vengeance only: but also because of conscience.

Owe nothing to any man: but to love one another. For he that loveth another, fulfilleth the law.

but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ. And make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts of it.

But why doest thou then judge thy brother? Other why dost thou despise thy brother? We shall all be brought before the judgment seat of Christ.

Let us not, therefore, judge one another any more. But judge this, rather: that no man put a stumbling block, or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

For I know, and am full certified in the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing common of itself: but unto him that judgeth it to be common, to him it is common.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy, in the holy ghost.

Destroy not the work of God for a little meat's sake. All things are pure: but it is evil for that man, which eateth with hurt of his conscience.

For Christ pleased not himself: but as it is written, "The rebukes of them which rebuked thee, fell on me."

but as it is written, "To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that heard not, shall understand."

but now seeing I have no more to do in these countries, and also have been desirous many years to come unto you,

which have for my life laid down their own necks. Unto which not I only give thanks: but also the congregations of the gentiles.

For they that are such serve not the Lord Jesus Christ: but their own bellies. And with sweet preachings and flattering words deceive the hearts of the innocents:

for your obedience extendeth to all men. I am glad no doubt of you. But yet I would have you wise unto that which is good. And to be innocent as concerning evil.

but now is opened at this time and declared opened by the scriptures of prophecy, at the commandment of the everlasting God, to stir up obedience to the faith published among all nations:

I beseech you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all speak one thing and that there be no dissension among you: but be ye perfect in one mind, and one meaning.

I thank God that I baptised none of you, but Crispus and Gaius,

For Christ sent me not to baptise, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should have been made of none effect.

For the preaching of the cross is, to them that perish, foolishness: but unto us which are saved, it is the power of God.

But we preach Christ crucified: unto the Jews, an occasion of falling; and unto the Greeks, foolishness.

But unto them which are called, both of Jews and Greeks, we preach Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world, to confound the wise. And God hath chosen the weak things of the world, to confound things which are mighty.

And my words, and my preaching were not with enticing words of man's wisdom: but in showing of the spirit and of power,

that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men: but in the power of God.

but we speak the wisdom of God, which is in secret and lieth hid, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

But as it is written, "The eye hath not seen, and the ear hath not heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him."

But God hath opened them unto us by his spirit. For the spirit searcheth all things, yea the bottom of God's secrets.

For what man knoweth the things of a man: save the spirit of a man which is within him? Even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the spirit of God.

And we have not received the spirit of the world: but the spirit which cometh of God, for to know the things that are given to us of God,

which things also we speak - not in the cunning words of man's wisdom, but with the cunning words of the holy ghost, making spiritual comparisons of spiritual things.

For the natural man perceiveth not the things of the spirit of God, for they are but foolishness unto him: Neither can he perceive them, because he is spiritually examined.

But he that is spiritual discusseth all things: yet he himself is judged of no man.

"For who knoweth the mind of the Lord, other who shall inform him?" But we understand the mind of Christ.

And I could not speak unto you brethren as unto spiritual: but as unto carnal, even as it were unto babes in Christ.
