• 1 Corinthians 14:12

  So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.

• 1 Corinthians 15:58

  Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

• 1 Corinthians 16:10

  Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

• 2 Corinthians 4:8

  We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair;

• 2 Corinthians 4:9

  pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;

• 2 Corinthians 4:10

  always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.

• 2 Corinthians 4:13

  But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke.” We also believe, and therefore also we speak;

• 2 Corinthians 4:16

  Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.

• 2 Corinthians 4:17

  For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory;

• 2 Corinthians 4:18

  while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

• 2 Corinthians 5:9

  Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.

• 2 Corinthians 6:11

  Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians. Our heart is enlarged.

• 2 Corinthians 7:11

  For behold, this same thing, that you were made sorry in a godly way, what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defense, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, and vengeance! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.

• 2 Corinthians 8:1

  Moreover, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the assemblies of Macedonia;

• 2 Corinthians 8:2

  how that in much proof of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their liberality.

• 2 Corinthians 8:3

  For according to their power, I testify, yes and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord,

• 2 Corinthians 8:4

  begging us with much entreaty to receive this grace and the fellowship in the service to the saints.

• 2 Corinthians 8:5

  This was not as we had hoped, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God.

• 2 Corinthians 8:16

  But thanks be to God, who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

• 2 Corinthians 8:17

  For he indeed accepted our exhortation, but being himself very earnest, he went out to you of his own accord.

• 2 Corinthians 8:18

  We have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the Good News is known through all the assemblies.

• 2 Corinthians 9:2

  for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for a year past. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.

• 2 Corinthians 12:20

  For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire; that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, riots;

• 2 Corinthians 12:21

  that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness and sexual immorality and lustfulness which they committed.

• Galatians 4:18

  But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.

• Galatians 6:9

  Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

• Ephesians 4:25

  Therefore putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another.

• Ephesians 4:26

  “Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,

• Ephesians 4:32

  And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

• Ephesians 5:15

  Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;

• Ephesians 5:16

  redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

• Ephesians 6:14

  Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

• Ephesians 6:15

  and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace;

• Ephesians 6:16

  above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.

• Ephesians 6:17

  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

• Ephesians 6:18

  with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints:

• Ephesians 6:19

  on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,

• Ephesians 6:20

  for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

• Ephesians 6:21

  But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things;

• Philippians 1:12

  Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News;

• Philippians 1:13

  so that it became evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Christ;

• Philippians 1:14

  and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.

• Philippians 1:15

  Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.

• Philippians 1:16

  The former insincerely preach Christ from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;

• Philippians 1:17

  but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.

• Philippians 1:18

  What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.

• Philippians 1:27

  Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

• Philippians 1:28

  and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

• Philippians 2:15

  that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

• Philippians 2:22

  But you know the proof of him, that, as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.

• Philippians 2:26

  since he longed for you all, and was very troubled, because you had heard that he was sick.

• Philippians 2:30

  because for the work of Christ he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.

• Philippians 3:4

  though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:

• Philippians 3:5

  circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;

• Philippians 3:6

  concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.

• Philippians 3:7

  However, I consider those things that were gain to me as a loss for Christ.

• Philippians 3:8

  Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ

• Philippians 3:9

  and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;

• Philippians 3:10

  that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;

• Philippians 3:11

  if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

• Philippians 3:12

  Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

• Philippians 3:13

  Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,

• Philippians 3:14

  I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

• Philippians 3:20

  For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;

• Philippians 4:3

  Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

• Colossians 1:7

  even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,

• Colossians 4:5

  Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

• Colossians 4:7

  All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow bondservant in the Lord.

• Colossians 4:8

  I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,

• 2 Thessalonians 3:13

  But you, brothers, don’t be weary in doing well.

• Titus 2:14

  who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

• Titus 3:1

  Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

• Hebrews 10:34

  For you both had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.

• Hebrews 11:15

  If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return.

• Hebrews 11:16

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

• Hebrews 11:24

  By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,

• Hebrews 11:25

  choosing rather to share ill treatment with God’s people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time;

• Hebrews 11:26

  accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.

• Hebrews 11:27

  By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

• Hebrews 13:13

  Let us therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach.

• Hebrews 13:14

  For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come.

• Hebrews 13:15

  Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name.

• James 5:19

  Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,

• James 5:20

  let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

• 1 Peter 2:2

  as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that with it you may grow,

• 2 Peter 1:3

  seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue;

• 2 Peter 1:4

  by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.

• 2 Peter 1:5

  Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;

• 2 Peter 1:6

  and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control perseverance; and in perseverance godliness;

• 2 Peter 1:7

  and in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.

• 2 Peter 1:8

  For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

• 2 Peter 1:9

  For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.

• 2 Peter 1:10

  Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.

• 2 Peter 1:11

  For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

• 2 Peter 1:12

  Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.

• 2 Peter 1:13

  I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;

• 2 Peter 1:14

  knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.

• 2 Peter 1:15

  Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.

• 2 Peter 1:16

  For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

• 2 Peter 1:17

  For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

• 2 Peter 1:18

  We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.

• 2 Peter 1:19

  We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:

• 2 Peter 1:20

  knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.

• 2 Peter 1:21

  For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

• 2 Peter 1:22
• 2 Peter 3:14

  Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.

• Revelation 3:19

  As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.

• Revelation 5:4

  And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look in it.

• Revelation 5:5

  One of the elders said to me, “Don’t weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome; he who opens the book and its seven seals.”

• Revelation 22:17

  The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” He who hears, let him say, “Come!” He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.
