'God' in the Bible

and the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the nations on the principle of faith, announced beforehand the glad tidings to Abraham: In thee all the nations shall be blessed.

but that by law no one is justified with God is evident, because The just shall live on the principle of faith;

Now I say this, A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which took place four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.

For if the inheritance be on the principle of law, it is no longer on the principle of promise; but God gave it in grace to Abraham by promise.

But a mediator is not of one, but God is one.

Is then the law against the promises of God? Far be the thought. For if a law had been given able to quicken, then indeed righteousness were on the principle of law;

but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, come of woman, come under law,

But because ye are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

So thou art no longer bondman, but son; but if son, heir also through God.

But then indeed, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods;

but now, knowing God, but rather being known by God, how do ye turn again to the weak and beggarly principles to which ye desire to be again anew in bondage?

and my temptation, which was in my flesh, ye did not slight nor reject with contempt; but ye received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

Be not deceived: God is not mocked; for whatever a man shall sow, that also shall he reap.

And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ;

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, would give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full knowledge of him,

but God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love wherewith he loved us,

For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has before prepared that we should walk in them.

that ye were at that time without Christ, aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

and might reconcile both in one body to God by the cross, having by it slain the enmity;

So then ye are no longer strangers and foreigners, but ye are fellow-citizens of the saints, and of the household of God,

in whom ye also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

(if indeed ye have heard of the administration of the grace of God which has been given to me towards you,

of which I am become minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me, according to the working of his power.

and to enlighten all with the knowledge of what is the administration of the mystery hidden throughout the ages in God, who has created all things,

in order that now to the principalities and authorities in the heavenlies might be made known through the assembly the all-various wisdom of God,

and to know the love of the Christ which surpasses knowledge; that ye may be filled even to all the fulness of God.

one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.

until we all arrive at the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, at the full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fulness of the Christ;

being darkened in understanding, estranged from the life of God by reason of the ignorance which is in them, by reason of the hardness of their hearts,

and your having put on the new man, which according to God is created in truthful righteousness and holiness.

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which ye have been sealed for the day of redemption.

and be to one another kind, compassionate, forgiving one another, so as God also in Christ has forgiven you.

Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children,

and walk in love, even as the Christ loved us, and delivered himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour.

For this ye are well informed of, knowing that no fornicator, or unclean person, or person of unbridled lust, who is an idolater, has inheritance in the kingdom of the Christ and God.

Let no one deceive you with vain words, for on account of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

giving thanks at all times for all things to him who is God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

not with eye-service as men-pleasers; but as bondmen of Christ, doing the will of God from the soul,

Put on the panoply of God, that ye may be able to stand against the artifices of the devil:

For this reason take to you the panoply of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having accomplished all things, to stand.

Peace to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I thank my God for my whole remembrance of you,

For God is my witness how I long after you all in the bowels of Christ Jesus.

and that the most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord through my bonds, dare more abundantly to speak the word of God fearlessly.

and not frightened in anything by the opposers, which is to them a demonstration of destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God;

who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God;

Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and granted him a name, that which is above every name,

and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to God the Father's glory.

for it is God who works in you both the willing and the working according to his good pleasure.

that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation; among whom ye appear as lights in the world,

for he was also sick close to death, but God had mercy on him, and not indeed on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.

For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, and do not trust in flesh.

and that I may be found in him, not having my righteousness, which would be on the principle of law, but that which is by faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God through faith,

I pursue, looking towards the goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.

As many therefore as are perfect, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this also God shall reveal to you.

whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and their glory in their shame, who mind earthly things:)

Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

and the peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus.

What ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these things do; and the God of peace shall be with you.

But I have all things in full supply and abound; I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things sent from you, an odour of sweet savour, an acceptable sacrifice, agreeable to God.

But my God shall abundantly supply all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

But to our God and Father be glory to the ages of ages. Amen.

to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ which are in Colosse. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.

We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ continually when praying for you,

which are come to you, as they are in all the world, and are bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day ye heard them and knew indeed the grace of God, in truth:

so as to walk worthily of the Lord unto all well-pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing by the true knowledge of God;

who is image of the invisible God, firstborn of all creation;

of which I became minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given me towards you to complete the word of God,

to whom God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you the hope of glory:

to the end that their hearts may be encouraged, being united together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the full knowledge of the mystery of God;

buried with him in baptism, in which ye have been also raised with him through faith of the working of God who raised him from among the dead.

and not holding fast the head, from whom all the body, ministered to and united together by the joints and bands, increases with the increase of God.

If therefore ye have been raised with the Christ, seek the things which are above, where the Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God:

for ye have died, and your life is hid with the Christ in God.

On account of which things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering;

Let the word of the Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another, in psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God.

And everything, whatever ye may do in word or in deed, do all things in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him.

praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,

and Jesus called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These are the only fellow-workers for the kingdom of God who have been a consolation to me.

Epaphras, who is one of you, the bondman of Christ Jesus, salutes you, always combating earnestly for you in prayers, to the end that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the assembly of Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to you and peace.

We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you at our prayers,

remembering unceasingly your work of faith, and labour of love, and enduring constancy of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election.

for the word of the Lord sounded out from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith which is towards God has gone abroad, so that we have no need to say anything;

for they themselves relate concerning us what entering in we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God,

but, having suffered before and been insulted, even as ye know, in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the glad tidings of God with much earnest striving.

but even as we have been approved of God to have the glad tidings entrusted to us, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who proves our hearts.

For we have not at any time been among you with flattering discourse, even as ye know, nor with a pretext for covetousness, God is witness;

Thus, yearning over you, we had found our delight in having imparted to you not only the glad tidings of God, but our own lives also, because ye had become beloved of us.

For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, not to be chargeable to any one of you, we have preached to you the glad tidings of God.

Ye are witnesses, and God, how piously and righteously and blamelessly we have conducted ourselves with you that believe:

that ye should walk worthy of God, who calls you to his own kingdom and glory.

And for this cause we also give thanks to God unceasingly that, having received the word of the report of God by us, ye accepted, not men's word, but, even as it is truly, God's word, which also works in you who believe.

For ye, brethren, have become imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus; for ye also have suffered the same things of your own countrymen as also they of the Jews,

who have both slain the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and have driven us out by persecution, and do not please God, and are against all men,
