Σελίδα 110 - But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye : and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled ; but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts : and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in yon with meekness and fear...
Σελίδα 129 - And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints...
Σελίδα 40 - Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites ! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
Σελίδα 147 - We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed ; we are perplexed, but not in despair ; Persecuted, but not forsaken ; cast down, but not destroyed ; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the _ life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
Σελίδα 123 - Scriptures contain the whole of the truth ; and this translation of them should therefore do at least this good — viz. placing bishops and priests above suspicion as to the parts of it which they profess to explain. Other means also, as prelates, the pope, and friars, may prove defective ; and to provide against this, Christ and His apostles evangelized the greater portion of the world by making known the Scriptures in a language which was familiar to the people.
Σελίδα 122 - Scriptures in a language which they fully understand.

And this translation of them into English should therefore do at least this good, viz.
Σελίδα 162 - Satan ; so blind intent and wicked counsel excuses not the pope here ; but if he ask of true priests that they travel more than they may, he is not excused by reason of God, that he should not be Antichrist. For our belief teaches us that our blessed God suffers us not to be tempted more than we may ; how should a man ask such service ? And therefore pray we to God for our Pope Urban the Sixth, that his old holy intent be not quenched by his enemies. And Christ, that may not lie, says that the enemies...
Σελίδα 141 - For as air and noxious spirits are shut up in the bowels of the earth, which are expelled in an earthquake, and so the earth is cleansed, but not without great violence, so there were many heresies shut up in the hearts of reprobate men, but by the condemnation of them the kingdom has been cleared, but not without irksomeness and great commotion.
Σελίδα 60 - ... but to be transformed, by the renewing of the mind, that we " may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.
Σελίδα 157 - For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God who is the Saviour of all men, especially of those that believe.
