The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.

To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.

And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.

Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

If ye will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the LORD your God:

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.

For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.

They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:

But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
