who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie;

not because we don't have the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, that you should imitate us.

For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:

But we see him who has been made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for everyone.

Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.

Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter therein, and they to whom the good news was before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,

For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.

nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,

For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.

God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them,

Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,

But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. "Don't fear what they fear, neither be troubled."

that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and the commandments of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior:

The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him.

For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;

This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.

This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.

If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death. I don't say that he should make a request concerning this.

This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.

Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.

They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who don't have God's seal on their foreheads.

He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast; saying to those who dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.

It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn't worship the image of the beast to be killed.

For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.

Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.

and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time.
