'Word' in the Bible

In times past the word of God came to our fathers through the prophets, in different parts and in different ways;

Who, being the outshining of his glory, the true image of his substance, supporting all things by the word of his power, having given himself as an offering making clean from sins, took his seat at the right hand of God in heaven;

Because if the word which came through the angels was fixed, and in the past every evil act against God's orders was given its full punishment;

Let us then, though we still have God's word that we may come into his rest, go in fear that some of you may be unable to do so.

And, truly, the good news came to us, even as it did to them; but the hearing of the word did them no good, because they were not united in faith with the true hearers.

For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

For everyone who takes milk is without experience of the word of righteousness: he is a child.

With knowledge of the good word of God, and of the powers of the coming time,

And so, when he had been waiting calmly for a long time, God's word to him was put into effect.

So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath;

The law makes high priests of men who are feeble; but the word of the oath, which was made after the law, gives that position to a Son, in whom all good is for ever complete.

And for this cause it is through him that a new agreement has come into being, so that after the errors under the first agreement had been taken away by his death, the word of God might have effect for those who were marked out for an eternal heritage.

Let us keep the witness of our hope strong and unshaking, for he is true who has given his word:

A man who has gone against the law of Moses is put to death without pity on the word of two or three witnesses:

For, having done what was right in God's eyes, you have need of waiting before his word has effect for you.

By faith it is clear to us that the order of events was fixed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made from things which only seem to be.

And by faith Sarah herself had power to give birth, when she was very old, because she had faith in him who gave his word;

And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him;

And to the sound of a horn, and the voice of words, the hearers of which made request that not a word more might be said to them:

Keep in mind those who were over you, and who gave you the word of God; seeing the outcome of their way of life, let your faith be like theirs.
