1 Thessalonians 1

Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheusunto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:
So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;
10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

2 Thessalonians 3

 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:
 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.
 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.
 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;
 Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
 10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
 11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
 12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
 13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
 14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
 15 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
 16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.
 17 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.
 18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

2 Timothy 1

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,
 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
 Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;
 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.
 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;
 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
 10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:
 11 Where unto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
 12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
 13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
 14 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.
 15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
 16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
 17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
 18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

Titus 1




 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;

 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;

 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.

 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:

 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.

 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;

 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;

 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.

 10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:

 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.

 12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.

 13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;

 14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

 15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

 16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

Philemon




 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,

 And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:

 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,

 Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;

 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.

 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
 Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

 10 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:

 11 Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:

 12 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:

 13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

 14 But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.

 15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;

 16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?

 17 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.

 18 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;

 19 I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.

 20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

 21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.

 22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.

 23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;

 24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.

 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
