Owe no man anything, but love one another: for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law,

But clothe yourselves with our LORD Jesus Christ, and take no heed for the lusts of the flesh.

Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but rather be mindful of this, that you should never place a stumblingblock in the way of your brother.

For I know, and I have confidence in the LORD Jesus, that nothing unclean comes from him: but to him who believes a thing to be unclean, to him only is it unclean.

But now if you have caused your brother to grieve on account of meat, then you are not living in harmony. Do not make food a cause to destroy a man for whose sake Christ died.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

And let us not, because of food, destroy the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is wrong for the man who eats with offence.

For even Christ pleased not himself: but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached you have fallen on me.

But as it is written, Those to whom he was never mentioned, they shall see him: and those who have not heard of him, they shall be made obedient.

But now since I have no place in these countries, and as I have been desirous for many years past to come to you,

Who have risked their necks for my sake: I am not the only one grateful to them, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

For those who are such do not serve our LORD Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by smooth words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple people.

But your obedience is known to every one. I rejoice therefore on your behalf: and I want you to be wise in regard to good things, and pure concerning evil things.

But now is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets; and by the command of the eternal God, and is made known to all the peoples for the obedience of faith:

And you do not lack any of his gifts but wait for the manifestation of our LORD Jesus Christ:

Now I beseech you, my brethren, in the name of our LORD Jesus Christ, to be of one accord, and let there be no divisions among you but be perfectly united in one mind and in one thought.

For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel: and not to rely on the wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be in vain.

For the preaching of the cross * to those who have gone astray is foolishness; but to us who are saved it is the power of God.

But we preach Christ crucified, which is a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Syrians. *
