Page 24 - Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Page 499 - Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge : for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol ; and their conscience being weak is defiled. 8 But meat commendeth us not to God : for neither, if we eat, are we the better ; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
Page 499 - But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him ; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Page 542 - And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree : boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
Page 64 - And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
