And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. Acts 19:3

Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should

come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. Acts 19:4

When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. Acts 19:6

And all the men were about twelve. Acts 19:7

kingdom of God. Acts 19:8

But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated thedisciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. Acts 19:9

And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting

of the hearers. 2 Timothy 2:14

godly

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preachedunto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 1 Timothy 3:16

If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is

But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 1 Timothy 6:11

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace ofGod, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward. 2 Corinthians 1:12

the end

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Romans 10:4

Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. Romans 13:8

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet;

and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Romans13:9

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Romans 13:10

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. Galatians 5:13

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Galatians 5:14

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Galatians 5:22

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 1 John 4:7


He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 1 John 4:8

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live throughhim. 1 John 4:9

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:10

charity

And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which isthe first commandment of all? Mark 12:28

And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: Mark 12:29

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first

commandment. Mark 12:30

And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. Mark12:31

And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he: Mark 12:32

And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbouras himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. Mark 12:33

And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durstask him any question. Mark 12:34

But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. Romans14:15

Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth. 1 Corinthians8:1

And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. 1 Corinthians 8:2

But if any man love God, the same is known of him. 1 Corinthians 8:3

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 1Corinthians 13:1

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove

mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:2

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 1Corinthians 13:3

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 1 Corinthians 13:4

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 1 Corinthians 13:5

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 1 Corinthians 13:6

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 1 Corinthians 13:7


Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there beknowledge, it shall vanish away. 1 Corinthians 13:8

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 1 Corinthians 13:9

But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 1 Corinthians 13:10

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 1

Corinthians 13:11

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 1Corinthians 13:12

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. 1 Corinthians 13:13

Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 1 Corinthians 14:1

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8

And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 2 Peter 1:7

with a pure heart fervently: 1 Peter 1:22

I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers nightand day; 2 Timothy 1:3

Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is

defiled. Titus 1:15

How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience fromdead works to serve the living God? Hebrews 9:14

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with

pure water. Hebrews 10:22

Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly. Hebrews 13:18

The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good

conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: 1 Peter 3:21

faith

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love. Galatians 5:6

When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I ampersuaded that in thee also. 2 Timothy 1:5

By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation hehad this testimony, that he pleased God. Hebrews 11:5

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them thatdiligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6

And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave uscommandment. 1 John 3:23

Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their

heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Isaiah 29:13

Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of theirwise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Isaiah 29:14


How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain. Jeremiah8:8

And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things. Matthew21:27

Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the

temple, he is a debtor! Matthew 23:16

Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? Matthew 23:17

And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. Matthew 23:18

the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Matthew 23:23

Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Matthew 23:24

Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? John 3:9

Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? John 3:10

And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? John 9:40

Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth. John 9:41

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Romans 1:22

Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:7

Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes,

and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. Deuteronomy 4:6

For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?Deuteronomy 4:7

And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? Deuteronomy

4:8


Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, goodstatutes and commandments: Nehemiah 9:13

Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Romans 7:12

Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good;that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. Romans 7:13

If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Romans 7:16

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I

find not. Romans 7:18

For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: Romans 7:22

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, andacceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2

Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness

should have been by the law. Galatians 3:21

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which arewritten in the book of the law to do them. Galatians 3:10

But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. Galatians 3:11

And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. Galatians 3:12

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Galatians 3:13

That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Galatians 3:14

was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Galatians 3:19

Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5:23

And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus,and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: Acts 6:5

And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people. Acts 6:8

And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel. Acts 6:15

Then said the high priest, Are these things so? Acts 7:1

And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, beforehe dwelt in Charran, Acts 7:2

And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee. Acts 7:3

Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this

land, wherein ye now dwell. Acts 7:4


And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession,and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child. Acts 7:5

And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them

evil four hundred years. Acts 7:6

And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place. Acts7:7

And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and

Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs. Acts 7:8

And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him, Acts 7:9

And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made himgovernor over Egypt and all his house. Acts 7:10

Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance. Acts 7:11

But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first. Acts 7:12

And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh. Acts 7:13

Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls. Acts 7:14

So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers, Acts 7:15

And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father ofSychem. Acts 7:16

But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, Acts 7:17

Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph. Acts 7:18

The same dealt subtly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not

live. Acts 7:19

In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months: Acts 7:20

And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son. Acts 7:21

And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds. Acts 7:22

And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel. Acts 7:23

And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian: Acts 7:24

For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not. Acts 7:25

And the next day he showed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye

wrong one to another? Acts 7:26

But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us? Acts 7:27

Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday? Acts 7:28

Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons. Acts 7:29

And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.Acts 7:30

When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came unto him, Acts 7:31

Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst notbehold. Acts 7:32

Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground. Acts 7:33


I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them.And now come, I will send thee into Egypt. Acts 7:34

This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand

of the angel which appeared to him in the bush. Acts 7:35

He brought them out, after that he had showed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.Acts 7:36

This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto

me; him shall ye hear. Acts 7:37

This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who receivedthe lively oracles to give unto us: Acts 7:38

To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt, Acts 7:39

Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is

become of him. Acts 7:40

And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. Acts 7:41

Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have yeoffered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness? Acts 7:42

Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you

away beyond Babylon. Acts 7:43

Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according tothe fashion that he had seen. Acts 7:44

Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our

fathers, unto the days of David; Acts 7:45

Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. Acts 7:46

But Solomon built him an house. Acts 7:47

Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, Acts 7:48

Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? Acts 7:49

Hath not my hand made all these things? Acts 7:50

Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. Acts 7:51

Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the coming of the Just One; of

whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: Acts 7:52

Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it. Acts 7:53

And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. Philippians 1:14

His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have

not strowed: Matthew 25:26

And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking upthat I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: Luke 19:22

Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? Luke 19:23

Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: Proverbs 30:8

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I

saw, that it was from the hand of God. Ecclesiastes 2:24

For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I? Ecclesiastes 2:25

For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heapup, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit. Ecclesiastes 2:26

Give us this day our daily bread. Matthew 6:11

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.

Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Matthew 6:25

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye notmuch better than they? Matthew 6:26

Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? Matthew 6:27

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: Matthew 6:28

And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Matthew 6:29

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O

ye of little faith? Matthew 6:30

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? Matthew 6:31



Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor

forsake thee. Hebrews 13:5

So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. Hebrews 13:6

him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Isaiah 58:7

As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation. Proverbs 10:25

He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat

vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. Luke 6:48

keep



Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God. Romans 3:2

So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:2 Thessalonians 1:4

Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. 2 Thessalonians 2:15


That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us. 2 Timothy 1:14



Titus 1:9


______________________

avoiding



Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 1

Timothy 6:5

Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 1 Timothy1:4




And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ


All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2Timothy 3:16


1:4

oppositions

Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some,

He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection. Acts 17:18

(For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.) Acts17:21

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Romans 1:22

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 1 Corinthians 1:19

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 1

Corinthians 1:20

For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them thatbelieve. 1 Corinthians 1:21

For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 1 Corinthians 1:22

But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 1 Corinthians 1:23

Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come tonought: 1 Corinthians 2:6

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 1 Corinthians 3:19

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after

Christ. Colossians 2:8

have

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through

with many sorrows. 1 Timothy 6:10




For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offeredyear by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. Hebrews 10:1

For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.

Hebrews 10:2

But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. Hebrews 10:3

For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Hebrews 10:4

Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: Hebrews10:5

In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Hebrews 10:6

Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. Hebrews 10:7

Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; whichare offered by the law; Hebrews 10:8

Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. Hebrews 10:9

By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Hebrews 10:10

And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: Hebrews 10:11

But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; Hebrews 10:12
