'God' in the Bible

But the widow [who is one] truly, and is left alone, has put her hope in God and continues in her petitions and prayers night and day.

I testify solemnly before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels that you observe these [things] without prejudice, doing nothing according to partiality.

All those who are under the yoke as slaves must regard their own masters as worthy of all honor, lest the name of God and the teaching be slandered.

But you, O man of God, flee from these [things], and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patient endurance, gentleness.

I command you, in the sight of God who gives life to all [things] and Christ Jesus who testified the good confession before Pontius Pilate,

Command those [who are] rich in this present age not to be proud and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in God, who provides us all [things] richly for enjoyment,

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, according to the promise of life which [is] in Christ Jesus,

to Timothy, [my] dear child. Grace, mercy, [and] peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

{I am thankful} to God, whom I have served with a clear conscience {as my ancestors did}, when {I remember you constantly} in my prayers night and day,

for which reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is in you through the laying on of my hands.

For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power and love and self-discipline.

Therefore, do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor me his prisoner, but suffer along with [me] for the gospel, according to the power of God,

in connection with which I suffer misfortune to the point of {imprisonment} as a criminal, but the word of God is not bound.

Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, a worker having no need to be ashamed, guiding the word of truth along a straight path.

However, the solid foundation of God stands firm, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are his," and "Everyone who names the name of the Lord must abstain from unrighteousness."

correcting those who are opposed with gentleness, [seeing] whether perhaps God may grant them repentance to a knowledge of the truth,

traitors, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God,

All scripture [is] inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness,

in order that the person of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.

I solemnly charge [you] before God and Christ Jesus, who is going to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom,

Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of the chosen of God and the knowledge of the truth that [is] according to godliness,

in the hope of eternal life which God, who does not lie, promised before eternal ages,

but at the proper time has disclosed his message in the proclamation [with] which I was entrusted according to the command of God our Savior,

to Titus, [my] true child according to a common faith. Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.

They profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny [him], [because they] are detestable and disobedient, and unfit for every good deed.

[to be] self-controlled, pure, busy at home, good, being subject to their own husbands, in order that the word of God may not be slandered.

not stealing, but demonstrating all good faith, in order that they may do credit to the teaching of God our Savior in everything.

For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people,

looking forward to the blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

But when the kindness and love for mankind of God our Savior appeared,

The saying [is] trustworthy, and I want you to insist concerning these [things], so that those who have believed in God may be careful to engage in good deeds. These things are good and beneficial for people.

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

I thank my God, always making mention of you in my prayers,

[Although] God spoke long ago in many parts and in many ways to the fathers by the prophets,

And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, "And let all [the] angels of God worship him."

but concerning the Son, "Your throne, O God, [is] {forever and ever}, and the scepter of righteous [is the] scepter of your kingdom.

You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; because of this God, your God, has anointed you with the olive oil of joy more than your companions.

[while] God was testifying at the same time by signs and wonders and various miracles and distributions of the Holy Spirit according to his will.

but we see Jesus, for a short [time] made lower than the angels, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that apart from God he might taste death on behalf of everyone.

And again, "I will trust in him." And again, "Behold, I and the children God has given me."

Therefore he was obligated to be made like his brothers in all [respects], in order that he could become a merciful and faithful high priest in the things relating to God, in order to make atonement for the sins of the people.

For every house is built by someone, but the one who built all [things] [is] God.

Watch out, brothers, lest there be in some of you an evil, unbelieving heart, [with the result that you] fall away from the living God.

For he has spoken somewhere about the seventh [day] in this way: "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works,"

Consequently a sabbath rest remains for the people of God.

For the one who has entered into his rest has also himself rested from his works, just as God [did] from his own [works].

For the word of God [is] living and active and sharper than any double-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, both joints and marrow, and able to judge the reflections and thoughts of the heart.

Therefore, [because we] have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.

For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of people in the things relating to God, in order that he can offer both gifts and sacrifices on behalf of sins,

And someone does not take for himself the honor, but is called by God, just as Aaron also [was].

being designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

For indeed, [although you] ought to be teachers {by this time}, you have need of someone to teach you again the beginning elements of the oracles of God, and {you have need of} milk, not solid food.

Therefore, leaving behind the elementary message about Christ, let us move on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God,

And this we will do, if God permits.

and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the coming age,

and having fallen away, to renew [them] again to repentance, [because they] have crucified again for themselves the Son of God and held him up to contempt.

For ground that drinks the rain that comes often upon it, and brings forth vegetation usable to those [people] {for whose sake} [it is] also cultivated, shares a blessing from God.

For God [is] not unjust, [so as] to forget your work and the love which you demonstrated for his name [by] having served the saints, and continuing to serve [them].

For [when] God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater to swear by, he swore by himself,

In the same way God, [because he] wanted to show even more to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of his resolve, guaranteed [it] with an oath,

in order that through two unchangeable things, in which [it is] impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge may have powerful encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before [us],

For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham [as he] was returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God--he remains a priest for all time.

(for the law [made] nothing perfect), but on the other hand [there is] the introduction of a better hope through which we draw near to God.

Therefore also he is able to save completely those who draw near to God through him, [because he] always lives in order to intercede on their behalf.

For this [is] the covenant that I will decree with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I am putting my laws in their minds and I will write them on their hearts, and I will be {their} God and they will be {my} people.

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to serve [the] living God?

saying, "This [is] the blood of the covenant that God has commanded for you."

For Christ did not enter into a sanctuary made by hands, a [mere] copy of the true [one], but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf,

Then I said, 'Behold, I have come-- in the roll of the book it is written about me-- to do your will, O God.'

But this one, [after he] had offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God,

and [since we have] a great priest over the house of God,

How much worse punishment do you think the person will be considered worthy of who treats with disdain the Son of God and who considers ordinary the blood of the covenant by which he was made holy and who insults the Spirit of grace?

[It is] a terrifying [thing] to fall into the hands of the living God.

For you have need of endurance, in order that [after you] have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.

By faith we understand the worlds were created by the word of God, in order that what is seen did not come into existence from what is visible.

By faith Abel offered to God a greater sacrifice than Cain, by which he was approved that he was righteous, [because] God approved [him] for his gifts, and through it he still speaks, [although he] is dead.

By faith Enoch was taken up, so that he did not experience death, and he was not found, because God took him up. For before his removal, he had been approved {as having been pleasing} to God.

Now without faith [it is] impossible to please [him], for the one who approaches God must believe that he exists and is a rewarder of those who seek him.

For he was expecting the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder [is] God.

But now they aspire to a better [land], that is, a heavenly [one]. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

having reasoned that God [was] able even to raise [him] from the dead, from which he received him back also as a symbol.

choosing instead to be mistreated with the people of God [rather] than to experience the transitory enjoyment of sin,

[because] God had provided something better for us, so that they would not be made perfect without us.

fixing our eyes on Jesus, the originator and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Endure [it] for discipline. God is dealing with you as sons. For what son [is there] whom a father does not discipline?

Take care [that] no one falls short of the grace of God; [that] no one growing up [like] a root of bitterness causes trouble, and by it many become defiled;

But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to tens of thousands of angels, to the festal gathering

and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous [people] made perfect,

Therefore, [since we] are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be thankful, through which let us serve God acceptably, with awe and reverence.

For indeed our God [is] a consuming fire.

Marriage [must be] held in honor by all, and the marriage bed [be] undefiled, because God will judge sexually immoral people and adulterers.

Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you; {considering the outcome of their way of life}, imitate their faith.

Therefore through him let us offer up a sacrifice of praise {continually} to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name.

And do not neglect doing good and generosity, for God is pleased with such sacrifices.

Now may the God of peace, who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,

James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the dispersion. Greetings!

Now if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask for [it] from God, who gives to all without reservation and not reproaching, and it will be given to him.

No one who is being tempted should say, "I am being tempted by God," for God {cannot be tempted} by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

for human anger does not accomplish the righteousness of God.
