(for, since the creation of the world, his attributes, which are invisible, are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity,) that they may be without excuse;

What then? Do we, Jews, excel? Not at all: for we have already convicted all, both Jews and Greeks, of being under sin,

Wherefore, by works of law, no flesh shall be justified in his sight; for by law is the knowledge of sin.

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not charge sin.

And he received the sign of circumcision, as a seal of the righteousness of the faith that he had while he was uncircumcised, in order that he might be the father of all that believe, even in a state of uncircumcision, so that righteousness might be counted to them also;

For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

For this reason, as by one man sin entered into the world, and by his sin, death; and so death passed through to all men, because all have sinned:

for till the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged where there is no law.

Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that did not sin in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him that was to come.

But, besides the first offense, law was introduced, in order that offenses might abound: but where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

that as sin has reigned, ending in death, so might grace reign by justification, ending in life eternal, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?

It can not be. How shall we that are dead to sin, live any longer in it?

knowing this, that our former man has been crucified with him, in order that the sinful body may be deprived of its power, so that we should no longer serve sin:

for he that is dead is freed from sin.

for, as it regards his dying, he, once for all, died to sin; but as it regards his living, he lives to God.

So also do you count yourselves as dead indeed to sin, but as living to God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Therefore, let not sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey it;

and present not your members to sin, as instruments of unrighteousness: but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead; and your members to God, as instruments of righteousness.

For sin shall not have dominion over you; for you are not under law, but under grace.

What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? It can not be.

Know you not, that to whom you present yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey, whether of sin that leads to death, or of obedience that leads to righteousness?

But thanks be to God, that though you were the servants of sin, yet you have obeyed from the heart the form of teaching, in which you have been instructed;

and being made free from sin, you have be come the servants of righteousness.

For when you were the servants of sin, you were free with respect to righteousness.

But now, since you have been made free from sin, and have become servants to God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal "life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? Is the law sin? It can not be. Indeed, I had not known sin, except through law. For I had not known evil desire, unless the law had said: You shall not have any evil desire.

But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, rendered active within me every evil desire. For without the law, sin was dead.

Indeed, I was alive with out the law, once; but when the commandment came, sin be came alive, and I died:

For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.

Has, then, that which is good become death to me? It can not be. But sin, that it, might appear sin, was causing death to me through that which is good, in order that sin, through the commandment, might become exceedingly sinful.

For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold into bondage to sin.

Now, then, it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.

Now, if I do that which I wish not to do, it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.

but I perceive another law in my members, at war with the law of my mind, and making me a captive to the law of sin, which is in my members.

I thank God that I shall be delivered through Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore, I my self, with the mind, serve the law of God, but with the flesh, the law of sin.

For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has freed me from the law of sin, and of death.

For what the law could not do, because it was weak through the flesh, God has done, who, sending his own son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for a sin-offering, condemned sin in the flesh,

But if Christ is in you, the body is dead, on account of sin, but the Spirit is life, on ac count of righteousness.

For we are saved by this hope; but hope that is seen is not hope; for, what any one sees, why does he also hope for it?

For those whom he foreknew, he predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren:

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how will he not with him also freely give us all things?

For the word of the promise is this: At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

as it is written: Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense: and whoever believes on him, shall not be ashamed.

And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.

But he that doubts is condemned, if he eat, because he eats not with faith. Every thing that is not of faith, is sin.

The God of peace will soon bruise Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you

God is faithful, by whom you have been called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

For the Jews ask for a sign, and the Greeks seek for wisdom;

But, as it is written: Eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and into the heart of man have not entered the things which God has prepared for them that love him.

For. this reason have I sent to you Timothy, who is my son, beloved and faithful in the Lord, that he may remind you of my ways that are in Christ, as I teach everywhere, in every church.

Shun lewdness. Every sin that a man commits, is without the body; but he that is guilty of lewdness sins against his own body.

But if you should marry, you would not sin. And if a virgin should marry, she would not sin. But such will have affliction in the flesh. But I spare you.

But if any man thinks he would treat his virgin daughter amiss, should she pass the bloom of life, and it is necessary that it should be so, let him do as he pleases, he does not sin; let them (the suitor and the daughter) marry.

But if you sin in this way against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord-? Are you not my work in the Lord?

If we have sown, for your benefit, things that are spiritual, is it a great thing that we reap your carnal things?

Therefore, tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to those who believe not: but prophecy is not for those who believe not, but for those who believe.

and that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve;

after that, he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain till this day; but some have fallen asleep.

After that, he was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

Last of all, he was seen by me also, as one untimely born.

And when all things shall have been put under him, then, also, shall the Son himself be subjected to him that did put all things under him, that God may be the all in all.

Awake, as you should, to soberness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

So, also, is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption:

it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power:

it is sown an animal body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body.

The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not yes and no, but in him was yes.

For our present light affliction works out for us an eternal fullness of glory, excelling all excellence, ls while we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen: for the things seen are temporal; but the things not seen are eternal.

for he has made him, who knew no sin, a sin-offering for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in him.

Now, he that furnishes seed to the sower will both furnish bread for food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

Have I committed a sin, in making myself lowly, that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel to you without cost?

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I am not incensed?

I am astonished that you are so soon turning away from him that called you into the grace of Christ, to another gospel:

But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are also found sinners, is Christ, there fore, the minister of sin? It can not be.

I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live; no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

But the scripture has shut up all under sin, that the promise by faith in Christ Jesus may be given to those who believe.

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

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

So, then, you are no longer a servant, but a son; and if a son, an heir also of God, through Christ.

These things are allegorized: for these women are the two covenants; the one from the Mount Sinai that brings forth for bondage, which is Hagar.

For Hagar represents Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in bondage with her children.

But what says the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free-woman.

till we all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to a measure of stature that fully develops the Christ;

Be angry, and yet do not sin: let not the sun go down on your wrath,

But you know his approved character, that as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel.

Him, therefore, I hope to send immediately, as soon as I know how it may go with me.

Do those things which you have learned and received, and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.

who has delivered us from the authority of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his beloved Son,

For I wish you to know how great a conflict I have for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

Let no one gain his purpose in depriving you of the palm by an affected humility and worship of angels, prying into things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

and to wait for his Son from heaven, even Jesus, whom he raised from the dead, and who delivers us from the coming wrath.

Let no one deceive you by any means; for that day will not come, unless the apostasy come first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition,

to Timothy, my true son in the faith; grace, mercy, peace from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, in accordance with the preceding prophecies concerning you, that by them you may war the good warfare,

And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in flesh, justified in spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up in glory.

Those who sin rebuke before all, that the rest also may fear.
