Phrygia, G5435 and Pamphylia, G3828 in Egypt, G125 and in the parts G3313 of Libya G3033 about G2596 Cyrene, G2957 and strangers G1927 of Rome, G4516 Jews G2453 and proselytes, G4339

And the saying G3056 pleased G700 the whole G3956 multitude: G4128 and they chose G1586 Stephen, G4736 a man G435 full G4134 of faith G4102 and of the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 and Philip, G5376 and Prochorus, G4402 and Nicanor, G3527 and Timon, G5096 and Parmenas, G3937 and Nicolas G3532 a proselyte G4339 of Antioch: G491

However, certain G5100 men G435 joined G2853 to him, and believed: G4100 among G1722 the which G3739 was Dionysius G1354 the Areopagite, G698 and a woman G1135 named G3686 Damaris, G1152 and others G2087 with them.

But when G5613 divers G5100 were hardened, G4645 and believed G544 not, but spoke G2551 evil of that way G3598 before G1799 the multitude, G4128 he departed G868 from them, and separated G873 the disciples, G3101 disputing G1256 daily G2596 G2250 in the school G4981 of one G5100 Tyrannus. G5181

Who, G3739 when he came, G3854 and had seen G1492 the grace G5485 of God, G2316 was glad, G5463 and exhorted G3870 them all, G3956 that with purpose G4286 of heart G2588 they would hold G4347 to the Lord. G2962

Confirming G1991 the souls G5590 of the disciples, G3101 and exhorting G3870 them to continue G1696 in the faith, G4102 and that we must G1163 through G1223 much G4183 tribulation G2347 enter G1525 into G1519 the kingdom G932 of God. G2316

And he went G1525 into G1519 the synagogue, G4864 and spoke G2980 boldly G3955 for the space G1909 of three G5140 months, G3376 disputing G1256 and persuading G3982 the things concerning G4012 the kingdom G932 of God. G2316

And when they had appointed G5021 him a day, G2250 there came G2240 many G4119 to him into G1519 his lodging; G3578 to whom G3739 he expounded G1620 and testified G1263 the kingdom G932 of God, G2316 persuading G3982 them concerning G4012 Jesus, G2424 both G5037 out of the law G3551 of Moses, G3475 and out of the prophets, G4396 from morning G4404 till G2193 evening. G2073

Then G3767 said G3004 Jesus G2424 to those G3588 Jews G2453 which G3588 believed G4100 on him, If G1437 you continue G3306 in my word, G3056 then are you my disciples G3101 indeed; G230

And you shall know G1097 the truth, G225 and the truth G225 shall make G1659 you free. G1659

I am G1510 the vine, G288 you are the branches: G2814 He that stays G3306 in me, and I in him, the same G3778 brings G5342 forth much G4183 fruit: G2590 for without G5565 me you can G1410 do G4160 nothing. G3762

If G1437 you abide G3306 in me, and my words G4487 abide G3306 in you, you shall ask G154 what G3739 you will, G2309 and it shall be done G1096 to you.

As the Father G3962 has loved G25 me, so G2504 have I loved G25 you: continue G3306 you in my love. G26

Knowing G1492 therefore G3767 the terror G5401 of the Lord, G2962 we persuade G3982 men; G444 but we are made G5319 manifest G5319 to God; G2316 and I trust G1679 also G2532 are made G5319 manifest G5319 in your G5216 consciences. G4893

We then, G3767 as workers G4903 together G4903 with him, beseech G3870 you also G2532 that you receive G1209 not the grace G5485 of God G2316 in vain. G2756

Stand G4739 fast therefore G3767 in the liberty G1657 with which G3739 Christ G5547 has made G1659 us free, G1659 and be not entangled G1758 again G3825 with the yoke G2218 of bondage. G1397

Nevertheless, G4133 whereto G1519 G3739 we have already G5348 attained, G5348 let us walk G4748 by the same G846 rule, G2583 let us mind G5426 the same G846 thing.

Therefore, G5620 my brothers G80 dearly beloved G27 and longed G1973 for, my joy G5479 and crown, G4735 so G3779 stand G4739 fast in the Lord, G2962 my dearly beloved. G27

If G1489 you continue G1961 in the faith G4102 grounded G2311 and settled, G1476 and be not moved G3334 away G3334 from the hope G1680 of the gospel, G2098 which you have heard, G191 and which G3739 was preached G2784 to every G3956 creature G2937 which is under G5259 heaven; G3772 whereof G3739 I Paul G3972 am made G1096 a minister; G1249

Whom G3739 we preach, G2605 warning G3560 every G3956 man, G444 and teaching G1321 every G3956 man G444 in all G3956 wisdom; G4678 that we may present G3936 every G3956 man G444 perfect G5046 in Christ G5547 Jesus: G2424

That no G3367 man G3367 should be moved G4525 by these G5025 afflictions: G2347 for yourselves G846 know G1492 that we are appointed G2749 thereunto. G1519 G5124

For this G5124 cause, G1223 when I could no G3371 longer G3371 forbear, G4722 I sent G375 to know G1097 your G5216 faith, G4102 lest G3381 by some G3381 means G4458 the tempter G3985 have tempted G3985 you, and our labor G2873 be in vain. G2756

And we desire G1937 that every G1538 one of you do show G1731 the same G846 diligence G4710 to the full G4136 assurance G4136 of hope G1680 to the end: G5056

That you be not slothful, G3576 but followers G3402 of them who through G1223 faith G4102 and patience G3115 inherit G2816 the promises. G1860

Looking G1983 diligently lest G3361 any G5100 man fail G5302 of the grace G5485 of God; G2316 lest G3361 any G5100 root G4491 of bitterness G4088 springing G5453 up trouble G1776 you, and thereby G1223 G5026 many G4183 be defiled; G3392

Why, G1352 beloved, G27 seeing that you look G4328 for such G5023 things, be diligent G4704 that you may be found G2147 of him in peace, G1515 without G784 spot, G784 and blameless. G298

You therefore, G3767 beloved, G27 seeing you know G4267 these things before, G4267 beware G5442 lest G2443 G3361 you also, G4879 being led G4879 away G4879 with the error G4106 of the wicked, G113 fall G1601 from your G3588 own G2398 steadfastness. G4740

But grow G837 in grace, G5485 and in the knowledge G1108 of our Lord G2962 and Savior G4990 Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547 To him be glory G1391 both G2532 now G3568 and for ever. G2250 G165 Amen. G281

And now, G3568 little G5040 children, G5040 abide G3306 in him; that, when G3752 he shall appear, G5319 we may have G2192 confidence, G3954 and not be ashamed G153 before G575 him at G1722 his coming. G3952

Whoever G3956 G3588 transgresses, G3845 and stays G3306 not in the doctrine G1322 of Christ, G5547 has G2192 not God. G2316 He that stays G3306 in the doctrine G1322 of Christ, G5547 he has G2192 both G2532 the Father G3962 and the Son. G5207

Long G2425 time G5550 therefore G3767 stayed G1304 they speaking boldly G3955 in the Lord, G2962 which G3588 gave G3140 testimony G3140 to the word G3056 of his grace, G5485 and granted G1325 signs G4592 and wonders G5059 to be done G1096 by their hands. G5495

Being justified G1344 freely G1432 by his grace G5485 through G1223 the redemption G629 that is in Christ G5547 Jesus: G2424

By whom G3739 also G2532 we have G2192 access G4318 by faith G4102 into G1519 this G5026 grace G5485 wherein G1722 G3757 we stand, G2476 and rejoice G2744 in hope G1680 of the glory G1391 of God. G2316

That as sin G266 has reigned G936 to death, G2288 even G2532 so G3779 might grace G5485 reign G936 through G1223 righteousness G1343 to eternal G166 life G2222 by Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 our Lord. G2962

And if G1487 by grace, G5485 then is it no G3765 more G2089 of works: G2041 otherwise G1893 grace G5485 is no G3765 more G2089 grace. G5485 But if G1487 it be of works, G2041 then it is no G3765 more G2089 grace: G5485 otherwise G1893 work G2041 is no G3765 more G2089 work. G2041

Christ G5547 is become G2673 of no G2673 effect G2673 to you, whoever G3748 of you are justified G1344 by the law; G3551 you are fallen G1601 from grace. G5485

For by grace G5485 are you saved G4982 through G1223 faith; G4102 and that not of yourselves: G5216 it is the gift G1435 of God: G2316

For the grace G5485 of God G2316 that brings salvation G4992 has appeared G2014 to all G3956 men, G444

Be not carried G4064 about G4064 with divers G4164 and strange G3581 doctrines. G1322 For it is a good G2570 thing that the heart G2588 be established G950 with grace; G5485 not with meats, G1033 which G3739 have G3918 not profited G5623 them that have G3918 been occupied G4043 therein G1722 G3639 .

By Silvanus, G4610 a faithful G4103 brother G80 to you, as I suppose, G3049 I have written G1125 briefly, G1223 G3641 exhorting, G3870 and testifying G1957 that this G5026 is the true G227 grace G5485 of God G2316 wherein G1519 G3757 you stand. G2476
