and a woman who hath a husband unbelieving, and he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not send him away;

Am I not sent? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are ye not my work in the Lord

Here is a secret truth for you: not all of us are to die, but all of us are to be changed ??52 changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet-call. The trumpet will sound, the dead will rise imperishable, and we shall be changed.

The churches of Asia send you their greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church [that meets] in their house, send you their warm greetings in the Lord.

The brethren all send greetings to you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
