ἅγιος

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

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

God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

Wherefore(as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:

Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.

Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:

And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
