But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple which was known unto the high priest, and spake to the damsel that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Then said the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, "Art not thou one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not."

Some of the company drew forth Alexander, the Jews thrusting him forwards. Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have given the people an answer.

But none of those things move me. Neither is my life dear unto myself; that I might fulfill my course with joy, and the ministration which I have received of the Lord Jesus to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Moreover, of your own selves shall men arise speaking perverse things, to draw disciples after them.

And now dear brethren I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build further, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

Then appeared unto us Cyprus, and we left it on the left hand, and sailed unto Syria, and came unto Tyre. For there the ship unladed her burden.

Though some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, art graft in among them, and made partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

For if thou wast cut out of a natural wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature in a true olive tree: how much more shall the natural branches be graffed in their own olive tree again?

For I dare not speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the gentiles obedient, with word and deed,

For this cause have I sent unto you Timothy, which is my dear son, and faithful in the Lord, which shall put you in remembrance of my ways which I have in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in all congregations.

How dare one of you having business with another, go to law under the wicked? And not rather under the saints?

Wherefore my dear beloved, flee from worshipping of idols.

Therefore, my dear brethren, be ye steadfast and unmovable, always rich in the works of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know how that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

For a great door and a fruitful is opened unto me: and there are many adversaries.

When I was come to Troas for Christ's gospel's sake - and a great door was opened unto me of the Lord -

in honour and dishonour, in evil report and good report, as deceivers and yet true,

I am therefore not now ashamed, though I boasted myself to him of you. For as all things which I preached unto you are true, even so is our boasting - that I boasted myself to Titus withal - found true.

I speak as concerning rebuke, as though we had been weak. Howbeit, whereinsoever any man dare be bold - I speak foolishly - I dare be bold also.

by whom we are bold to draw nigh in that trust, which we have by faith on him.

and put on that new man, which after the image of God is shapen in righteousness, and true holiness.

Be ye followers of God as dear children,

But that ye may also know that condition I am in, and what I do, Tychicus my dear brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall show you of all things,

Insomuch that many of the brethren in the Lord are boldened through my bonds, and dare more largely speak the word without fear.

What then? So that Christ be preached all manner ways, whether it be by occasion, or of true meaning, I therein joy: Yea and will joy.

fulfil my joy, that ye draw one way, having one love, being of one accord, and of one mind,

Furthermore brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things pertain to love, whatsoever things are of honest report, if there be any virtuous thing, if there be any laudable thing, those same have ye in your mind,

for the hope's sake which is laid up in store for you in heaven, of which hope ye have heard before by the true word of the gospel,

as ye learned of Epaphras our dear fellow servant, which is for you a faithful minister of Christ,

Which hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear son,

praying also for us, that God open unto us the door of utterance, that we may speak the mystery of Christ - wherefore I am in bonds -

The dear brother Tychicus shall tell you of all my business, which is a faithful minister, and fellow servant in the Lord,

Dear Luke the physician greeteth you, and Demas.

for they themselves show of you what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from images for to serve the living and true God,

so was our affection toward you. Our good will was to have dealt unto you, not the gospel of God only: but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

Honour widows which are true widows.

wherein I suffer trouble as an evil doer, even unto bonds. But the word of God was not bound.

It is a true saying: If we be dead with him, we also shall live with him;

and such as cleaveth unto the true word of doctrine, that he may be able to exhort with wholesome learning, and to improve them that say against it.

This witness is true, wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,

This is a true saying. Of these things I would thou shouldest certify, that they which believe God, might be diligent to go forward in good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.

Nevertheless dear friends, we trust to see better of you, and things which accompany salvation, though we thus speak.

For the law made no thing perfect: but was an introduction of a better hope, by which hope, we draw nigh unto God.

For Christ is not entered into the holy places, that are made with hands, which are but similitudes of true things: but is entered into very heaven, for to appear now in the sight of God for us.

let us draw nigh with a true heart in a full faith sprinkled in our hearts, from an evil conscience, and washed in our bodies with pure water,

Err not, my dear brethren.

Wherefore, dear brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.

but whoso looketh in the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein - if he be not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work - the same shall be happy in his deed.

Hearken, my dear beloved brethren, hath not God chosen the poor of this world, which are rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he promised to them that love him?

But ye have despised the poor. Are not the rich they which oppress you: and they which draw you before judges?

Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries: or a vine bear figs? So can no fountain give both salt water and fresh also.

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands ye sinners, and purge your hearts ye wavering minded.

Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be damned. Behold, the judge standeth before the door.

which his own self bare our sins in his body on the tree, that we should be delivered from sin and should live in righteousness. By whose stripes ye were healed.
