Stran 427 - Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment; but I say unto you that whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment...
Stran 209 - For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers...
Stran 31 - For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
Stran 389 - As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
