- Likewise, the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For, we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings, Rom. 8:26
- And we know that to them that love God all things work together unto good: to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints. Rom. 8:28

- For I say to you, Gentiles: As long indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I will honour my ministry, Rom. 11:13
- And so all Israel should be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Sion, he that shall deliver and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. Rom. 11:26

- If it be possible, as much as is in you, have peace with all men. Rom. 12:18

- ¤ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need (as some do) epistles of commendation to you, or from you? 2 Cor. 3:1

- One body and one Spirit: as you are called in one hope of your calling. Eph. 4:4
- This then I say and testify in the Lord: That henceforward you walk not as also the Gentiles walk in the vanity of their mind: Eph. 4:17
- If so be that you have heard him and have been taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus: Eph. 4:21

- See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise, but as wise: Eph. 5:15
- Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord: Eph. 5:22
- Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body. Eph. 5:23

- According to my expectation and hope; that in nothing I shall be confounded: but with all confidence, as always, so now also, shall Christ be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death. Phil. 1:20
- Having the same conflict as that which you have seen in me and now have heard of me. Phil. 1:30
- And in habit found as a man. He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross. Phil. 2:8
- Wherefore, my dearly beloved, (as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only but much more now in my absence) with fear and trembling work out your salvation. Phil. 2:12
- That you may be blameless and sincere children of God, without reproof, in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation: among whom you shine as lights in the world. Phil. 2:15

- Not as though I had already attained, or were already perfect: but I follow after, if I may by any means apprehend, wherein I am also apprehended by Christ Jesus. Phil. 3:12
- Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing you be otherwise minded, this also God will reveal to you, Phil. 3:15
- Be ye followers of me, brethren: and observe them who walk so as you have our model. Phil. 3:17
- Now I rejoice in the Lord exceedingly that now at length your thought for me hath flourished again, as you did also think; but you were busied. Phil. 4:10
- I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith. Phil. 4:11
- And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only. Phil. 4:15
- Which is come unto you, as also it is in the whole world and bringeth forth fruit and groweth, even as it doth in you, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth. Col. 1:6
- As you learned of Epaphras, our most beloved fellow servant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ Jesus; Col. 1:7

- But having suffered many things before and been shamefully treated, (as you know) at Philippi, we had confidence in our God, to speak unto you the gospel of God in much carefulness. 1 Th. 2:2
- But as we were approved by God that the gospel should be committed to us: even so we speak, not as pleasing men but God, who proveth our hearts. 1 Th. 2:4
- For neither have we used at any time the speech of flattery, as you know: nor taken an occasion of covetousness (God is witness): 1 Th. 2:5
- Nor sought we glory of men, neither of you, nor of others. Whereas we might have been burdensome to you, as the apostles of Christ: 1 Th. 2:6
- But we became little ones in the midst of you, as if a nurse should cherish her children: 1 Th. 2:7
- As you know in what manner, entreating and comforting you (as a father doth his children), 1 Th. 2:11
- Therefore, we also give thanks to God without ceasing: because, that when you had received of us the word of the hearing of God, you received it not as the word of men, but (as it is indeed) the word of God, who worketh in you that have believed. 1 Th. 2:13
- For you, brethren, are become followers of the churches of God which are in Judea, in Christ Jesus: for you also have suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they have from the Jews: 1 Th. 2:14
- For even when we were with you, we foretold you that we should suffer tribulations: as also it is come to pass, and you know. 1 Th. 3:4
- But now when Timothy came to us from you and related to us your faith and charity, and that you have a good remembrance of us always, desiring to see us as we also to see you: 1 Th. 3:6
- And may the Lord multiply you and make you abound in charity towards one another and towards all men: as we do also towards you, 1 Th. 3:12
- ¤ For the rest therefore, brethren, we pray and beseech you in the Lord Jesus that, as you have received from us, how you ought to walk and to please God, so also you would walk, that you may abound the more. 1 Th. 4:1
- And that no man overreach nor circumvent his brother in business: because the Lord is the avenger of all these things, as we have told you before and have testified. 1 Th. 4:6
- But as touching the charity of brotherhood, we have no need to write to you: for yourselves have learned of God to love one another. 1 Th. 4:9
- And that you use your endeavour to be quiet: and that you do your own business and work with your own hands, as we commanded you: 1 Th. 4:11

- Not as if we had not power: but that we might give ourselves a pattern unto you, to imitate us. 2 Th. 3:9
- Yet do not esteem him as an enemy but admonish him as a brother. 2 Th. 3:15

- ¤ An ancient man rebuke not, but entreat him as a father: young men, as brethren: 1 Tim. 5:1
- Old women, as mothers: young women, as sisters, in all chastity. 1 Tim. 5:2
- Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 2 Tim. 2:3
