selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you,

yourselves,

yea, what zeal,
yea, what
revenge! In all things ye have approved
yourselves to be clear in this matter.
Consider what this godly sorrow has produced in you: what earnestness, what eagerness to clear
yourselves, what
indignation, what
alarm, what longing, what zeal, what
vindication! In every way you have proved
yourselves to be innocent in this matter.

herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a
year ago.

boast of you to them of
Macedonia, that
Achaia was ready a
year ago; and your zeal hath
provoked very many.

boasting to the Macedonians that since last
year you in
Achaia were prepared to give. And your zeal has

years later does not
revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to
nullify the promise.

You are observing special days and months and seasons and years!
They
zealously affect you, but not well;
yea, they would
exclude you, that ye might affect them.

isolate you from us, so that you may be
zealous for them.
What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in
pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do
rejoice,
yea, and will
rejoice.
What then is the issue? Just this: that in every way, whether by false motives or true, Christ is preached. And in this I
rejoice.
Yes, and I will continue to
rejoice,
Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and
rejoice with you all.
But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am
glad and
rejoice with all of you.
Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the
excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may
win Christ,
More than that, I count all things as loss compared to the
surpassing excellence of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have lost all things. I consider them
rubbish, that I may gain Christ

threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,

vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy

years will never end.”

But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
But only the high priest entered the second room, and then only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.
Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
Nor did He enter heaven to offer Himself again and again, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.
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 offered
year by
year continually make the comers
thereunto perfect.
For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the
realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered
year after
year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
But in those sacrifices there is a
remembrance again made of sins every
year.
Instead, those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins,

morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a
year, and
buy and sell, and get gain:

Today or
tomorrow we will go to this or that city,
spend a
year there, carry on business, and make a profit.”
But above all things, my brethren,
swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your
yea be
yea; and your
nay,
nay; lest ye fall into
condemnation.
Above all, my brothers, do not
swear, not by heaven or earth or by any other oath. Simply let your “
Yes” be
yes, and your “No,” no, so that you will not fall under judgment.

humility toward one another, because, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

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.
And I heard a voice from heaven telling me to write, “Blessed are the dead—those who die in the Lord from this moment on.” “

dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and
Satan, and bound him a thousand
years,
He seized the
dragon, that ancient serpent who is the devil and
Satan, and bound him for a thousand
years.
And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should
deceive the nations no more, till the thousand
years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

Abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him, so that he could not
deceive the nations until the thousand
years were complete. After that, he must be released for a brief period of time.

beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand
years.
Then I saw the thrones, and those seated on them had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been
beheaded for their testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image, and had not received its mark on their foreheads or hands. And they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand
years.
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years were complete. This is the first resurrection.

years are complete,
