THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS.
CHAPTER 15:
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the
strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us
the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE ROMANS.
CHAPTER 8:
THERE is therefore now no condemnation
to them which are in Christ Jesus, who
walk not after the flesh, but after the
Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus hath made me free from the law of
sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it
was weak through the flesh, God sending
his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh,
and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might
be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the
flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind
the things of the flesh; but they that are
after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but
to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
THE PROVERBS.
CHAPTER 4:
4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let
thine heart retain my words: keep my
commandments, and live.
5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it
not; neither decline from the words of my
mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve
thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom: and with all thy getting get
understanding.
8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee:
she shall bring thee to honour, when thou
dost embrace her.
9 She shall give to thine head an ornament
of grace: a crown of glory shall she
deliver to thee.
10 Hear, O my son, and receive my
sayings; and the years of thy life shall be
many.
11 I have taught thee in the way of
wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be
straitened; and when thou runnest, thou
shalt not stumble.
13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her
not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 8:
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which
believed on him, If ye continue in my
word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the
truth shall make you free.
THE FIRST EPISTLE GENERAL OF JOHN.
CHAPTER 3:
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not
commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him:
and he cannot sin, because he is born of
God.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 8:
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which
believed on him, If ye continue in my
word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the
truth shall make you free.
CHAPTER 14:
15 ¶ If ye love me, keep my
commandments.
THE PROVERBS.
CHAPTER 4:
4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let
thine heart retain my words: keep my
commandments, and live.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 3:
3 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a
man be born again, he cannot see the
kingdom of God.
THE FIRST EPISTLE GENERAL OF PETER.
CHAPTER 1:
23 Being born again, not of corruptible
seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of
God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
THE GENERAL EPISTLE OF JAMES.
CHAPTER 1
18 Of his own will begat he us with the
word of truth, that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of his creatures.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and
superfluity of naughtiness, and receive
with meekness the engrafted word, which
is able to save your souls.
THE BOOK OF THE PROPHET ISAIAH.
CHAPTER 55:
HO, every one that thirsteth, come ye to
the waters, and he that hath no money;
come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy
wine and milk without money and without
price.
2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that
which is not bread? and your labour for
that which satisfieth not? hearken
diligently unto me, and eat ye that which
is good, and let your soul delight itself in
fatness.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me:
hear, and your soul shall live; and I will
make an everlasting covenant with you,
even the sure mercies of David.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE GALATIANS
CHAPTER 5
12 I would they were even cut off which
trouble you.
13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto
liberty; only use not liberty for an
occasion to the flesh, but by love serve
one another.
14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word,
even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself.
15 But if ye bite and devour one another,
take heed that ye be not consumed one of
another.
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and
ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit,
and the Spirit against the flesh: and these
are contrary the one to the other: so that ye
cannot do the things that ye would.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not
under the law.
THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE GALATIANS.
CHAPTER 5:
STAND fast therefore in the liberty
wherewith Christ hath made us free, and
be not entangled again with the yoke of
bondage.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be
circumcised, Christ shall profit you
nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that is
circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the
whole law.
4 Christ is become of no effect unto you,
whosoever of you are justified by the law;
ye are fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the
hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision
availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision;
but faith which worketh by love.
7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that
ye should not obey the truth?
THE GENERAL EPISTLE OF JAMES.
CHAPTER 2:
10 For whosoever shall keep the whole
law, and yet offend in one point, he is
guilty of all.
11 For he that said, Do not commit
adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if
thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill,
thou art become a transgressor of the law.
