'Lord' in the Bible

This is why I have sent Timothy to you. He is my dearly loved and faithful son in the Lord. He will remind you about my ways in Christ Jesus, just as I teach everywhere in every church.

But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will know not the talk but the power of those who are inflated with pride.

When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus with my spirit and with the power of our Lord Jesus,

turn that one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the Day of the Lord.

And some of you used to be like this. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

“Food for the stomach and the stomach for food,” but God will do away with both of them. The body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

God raised up the Lord and will also raise us up by His power.

But anyone joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

I command the married—not I, but the Lord—a wife is not to leave her husband.

But I (not the Lord) say to the rest: If any brother has an unbelieving wife and she is willing to live with him, he must not leave her.

However, each one must live his life in the situation the Lord assigned when God called him. This is what I command in all the churches.

For he who is called by the Lord as a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called as a free man is Christ’s slave.

About virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I do give an opinion as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy.

I want you to be without concerns. An unmarried man is concerned about the things of the Lord—how he may please the Lord.

and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or a virgin is concerned about the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the things of the world—how she may please her husband.

Now I am saying this for your own benefit, not to put a restraint on you, but because of what is proper and so that you may be devoted to the Lord without distraction.

A wife is bound as long as her husband is living. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants—only in the Lord.

yet for us there is one God, the Father.All things are from Him,and we exist for Him.And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ.All things are through Him,and we exist through Him.

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord?

If I am not an apostle to others, at least I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should earn their living by the gospel.

You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot share in the Lord’s table and the table of demons.

Or are we provoking the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, and man is not independent of woman.

For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: On the night when He was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread,

Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy way will be guilty of sin against the body and blood of the Lord.

but when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, so that we may not be condemned with the world.

Therefore I am informing you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

There are different ministries, but the same Lord.

It is written in the law:I will speak to these peopleby people of other languagesand by the lips of foreigners,and even then, they will not listen to Me,says the Lord.

I affirm by the pride in you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord: I die every day!

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victorythrough our Lord Jesus Christ!

Therefore, my dear brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the Lord’s work, knowing that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

I don’t want to see you now just in passing, for I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord allows.

The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, along with the church that meets in their home.

If anyone does not love the Lord, a curse be on him. Marana tha that is, Lord, come!

The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

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

Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort.

as you have partially understood us—that we are your reason for pride, as you are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, the Lord opened a door for me.

but whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit.

For we are not proclaiming ourselves but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your slaves because of Jesus.

We know that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and present us with you.

So, we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord.

and we are confident and satisfied to be out of the body and at home with the Lord.

Therefore, because we know the fear of the Lord, we seek to persuade people. We are completely open before God, and I hope we are completely open to your consciences as well.

Therefore, come out from among themand be separate, says the Lord;do not touch any unclean thing,and I will welcome you.

I will be a Father to you,and you will be sons and daughters to Me,says the Lord Almighty.

and not just as we had hoped. Instead, they gave themselves especially to the Lord, then to us by God’s will.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ: Though He was rich, for your sake He became poor, so that by His poverty you might become rich.

And not only that, but he was also appointed by the churches to accompany us with this gift that is being administered by us for the glory of the Lord Himself and to show our eagerness to help.

For we are making provision for what is right, not only before the Lord but also before men.

For if I boast some more about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for tearing you down, I am not ashamed.

So the one who boasts must boast in the Lord.

For it is not the one commending himself who is approved, but the one the Lord commends.

What I say in this matter of boasting, I don’t speak as the Lord would, but foolishly.

The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is praised forever, knows I am not lying.

Boasting is necessary. It is not profitable, but I will move on to visions and revelations of the Lord.

Concerning this, I pleaded with the Lord three times to take it away from me.

This is why I am writing these things while absent, that when I am there I will not use severity, in keeping with the authority the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.

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

I have confidence in the Lord you will not accept any other view. But whoever it is that is confusing you will pay the penalty.

But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world.

Brothers, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

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

Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens.

This is why, since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,

I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, would give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.

The whole building, being put together by Him, grows into a holy sanctuary in the Lord.

This is according to His eternal purpose accomplished in the Messiah, Jesus our Lord.

Therefore I, the prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk worthy of the calling you have received,

one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

Therefore, I say this and testify in the Lord: You should no longer walk as the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their thoughts.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light—

discerning what is pleasing to the Lord.

speaking to one anotherin psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs,singing and making musicfrom your heart to the Lord,

giving thanks always for everythingto God the Fatherin the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the Lord,

Children, obey your parents as you would the Lord, because this is right.

Fathers, don’t stir up anger in your children, but bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Serve with a good attitude, as to the Lord and not to men,

knowing that whatever good each one does, slave or free, he will receive this back from the Lord.

Finally, be strengthened by the Lord and by His vast strength.

Tychicus, our dearly loved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me so that you may be informed.

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

Grace be with all who have undying love for our Lord Jesus Christ.

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

Most of the brothers in the Lord have gained confidence from my imprisonment and dare even more to speak the message fearlessly.

and every tongue should confessthat Jesus Christ is Lord,to the glory of God the Father.

Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon so that I also may be encouraged when I hear news about you.

I am convinced in the Lord that I myself will also come quickly.

Therefore, welcome him in the Lord with all joy and hold men like him in honor,

Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write to you again about this is no trouble for me and is a protection for you.

More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of Him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them filth, so that I may gain Christ

but our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

So then, my brothers, you are dearly loved and longed for—my joy and crown. In this manner stand firm in the Lord, dear friends.
