'Things' in the Bible

Of his purpose he gave us being, by his true word, so that we might be, in a sense, the first-fruits of all the things which he had made.

Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him?

And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?

For we all go wrong in a number of things. If a man never makes a slip in his talk, then he is a complete man and able to keep all his body in control.

Even so the tongue is a small part of the body, but it takes credit for great things. How much wood may be lighted by a very little fire!

Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not right for these things to be so.

Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors.
