who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.

Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, Rejoice!

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

The things which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me: do these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, don't cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.

knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.

All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow bondservant in the Lord.

together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you everything that is going on here.

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, salutes you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.

For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.

For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,

then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

For when they are saying, "Peace and safety," then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman; and they will in no way escape.

In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.

He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.

who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,

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

Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and destroy by the manifestation of his coming;

But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you, and guard you from the evil one.

We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you both do and will do the things we command.

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

but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.

(but if a man doesn't know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the assembly of God?)

But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,

If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

Pay attention to yourself, and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.

which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.

This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will also live with him.

If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.

But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,

and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, prepared for every good work.

and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.

But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come.

For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

I command you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom:

For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts;

and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables.

From now on, there is stored up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

Alexander, the coppersmith, did much evil to me. The Lord will repay him according to his works,

And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.

I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).

Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.

Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.

For to which of the angels did he say at any time, "You are my Son. Today have I become your father?" and again, "I will be to him a Father, and he will be to me a Son?"

They will perish, but you continue. They all will grow old like a garment does.

As a mantle, you will roll them up, and they will be changed; but you are the same. Your years will not fail."

Aren't they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation -- which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard;

God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

saying, "I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the congregation I will sing your praise."

Again, "I will put my trust in him." Again, "Behold, here I am with the children whom God has given me."

Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice,

as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'"

while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."

For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;" although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

and in this place again, "They will not enter into my rest."

he again defines a certain day, today, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), "Today if you will hear his voice, don't harden your hearts."

This will we do, if God permits.

saying, "Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you."

(for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, "The Lord swore and will not change his mind, 'You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.'"

For finding fault with them, he said, "Behold, the days come," says the Lord, "that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;

"For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, and every man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for all will know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.

For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more."

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him who made it.

For a will is in force where there has been death, for it is never in force while he who made it lives.

so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.

Then I said, 'Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.'"

then he has said, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,

by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

"This is the covenant that I will make with them: 'After those days,' says the Lord, 'I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;'" then he says,

"I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more."

but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

For we know him who said, "Vengeance belongs to me," says the Lord, "I will repay." Again, "The Lord will judge his people."

For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

"In a very little while, he who comes will come, and will not wait.

But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your seed be called;"

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

See that you don't refuse him who speaks. For if they didn't escape when they refused him who warned on the Earth, how much more will we not escape who turn away from him who warns from heaven,

whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, saying, "Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens."

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

Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."

So that with good courage we say, "The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?"
