'Account' in the Bible

For the name of God is blasphemed on your account among the nations, according as it is written.

For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed in (trusted, relied on) God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness (right living, right standing with God).”

But to him who without working has faith in him who gives righteousness to the evil-doer, his faith is put to his account as righteousness.

As David says that there is a blessing on the man to whose account God puts righteousness without works, saying,

“Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will not take into account.”

Is this blessing, then, for the circumcision only, or in the same way for those who have not circumcision? for we say that the faith of Abraham was put to his account as righteousness.

He received the sign of circumcision, a seal or confirmation of the righteousness which he had by faith while [he was still] uncircumcised—this was so that he would be the [spiritual] father of all who believe without being circumcised—so that righteousness would be credited to them,

For which reason it was put to his account as righteousness.

And it was not written on his account alone, that it was reckoned to him,

But for us in addition, to whose account it will be put, if we have faith in him who made Jesus our Lord come back again from the dead,

who was betrayed and crucified because of our sins, and was raised [from the dead] because of our justification [our acquittal—absolving us of all sin before God].

In fact, sin was in the world before the law, but sin is not charged to a person’s account when there is no law.

I speak humanly on account of the weakness of your flesh. For even as ye have yielded your members in bondage to uncleanness and to lawlessness unto lawlessness, so now yield your members in bondage to righteousness unto holiness.

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

But if the Spirit of him that has raised up Jesus from among the dead dwell in you, he that has raised up Christ from among the dead shall quicken your mortal bodies also on account of his Spirit which dwells in you.

Just as it is written, "On account of you we are being put to death the whole day [long]; we are considered as sheep for slaughter."

For the Lord will execute His word upon the earth [He will conclude His dealings with mankind] completely and without delay.”

As regards, indeed, the good tidings, they are enemies on your account; and as regards the choice -- beloved on account of the fathers;

Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience.

For on this account ye pay tribute also; for they are God's officers, attending continually on this very thing.

So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has died.

Do not destroy the work of God on account of food. All [things] [are] clean, but [it is] wrong for the person {who eats and stumbles in the process}.
