Man

So when they came here with me, I did not delay. The next day I sat on the judgment seat and ordered that the man be brought in.

Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear this man myself.” “Tomorrow you will hear him,” Festus declared.

Then Festus said, “King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man. The whole Jewish community has petitioned me about him, both here and in Jerusalem, crying out that he ought not to live any longer.

On their way out, they said to one another, “This man has done nothing worthy of death or imprisonment.”

And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been released if he had not appealed to Caesar.”

When the islanders saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “Surely this man is a murderer. Although he was saved from the sea, Justice has not allowed him to live.”

The father of Publius was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him, and after praying and placing his hands on him, he healed the man.

…and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images of mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?

If a man who is not circumcised keeps the requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?

A man is not a Jew because he is one outwardly, nor is circumcision only outward and physical.

No, a man is a Jew because he is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man’s praise does not come from men, but from God.

Certainly not! Let God be true and every man a liar. As it is written: “So that You may be proved right when You speak and victorious when You judge.”

For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.

And David speaks likewise of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned.

But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!

But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

Do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?

So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.

So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.

What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.

But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why did You make me like this?”

For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them.”

Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to let his eating be a stumbling block.

Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?

For who among men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment.

…for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and dissension among you, are you not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man?

Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one man over another.

It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is intolerable even among pagans: A man has his father’s wife.

And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have been stricken with grief and have removed from your fellowship the man who did this?

…hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord.

But now I am writing you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a verbal abuser, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked man from among you.”

Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a man can commit is outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.

But because there is so much sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.

I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.

Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man still uncircumcised when called? He should not be circumcised.

Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man still uncircumcised when called? He should not be circumcised.

For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord’s freedman. Conversely, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ’s slave.

Because of the present crisis, I think it is good for a man to remain as he is.

I want you to be free from concern. The unmarried man is concerned about the work of the Lord, how he can please the Lord.

But the married man is concerned about the affairs of this world, how he can please his wife,

But the man who is firmly established in his heart and under no constraint, with control over his will and resolve in his heart not to marry the virgin, he will do well.

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.

But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.

A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.

For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.

Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.

In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.

For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.

For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.

Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside childish ways.

For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.

For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.

So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam a life-giving spirit.

The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven.

The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven.

As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.

As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.

And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.

And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.

I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows.

And I know that this man—whether in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows—

…was caught up to Paradise. The things he heard were inexpressible, things that man is not permitted to tell.

I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.

Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead—

For I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached was not devised by man.

I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

They only heard the account: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”

…know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”

Again I testify to every man who gets himself circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.

…by abolishing in His flesh the law of commandments and decrees. He did this to create in Himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace

“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross.

Anyone, then, who rejects this command does not reject man but God, the very One who gives you His Holy Spirit.

Let no one deceive you in any way, for it will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness—the son of destruction—is revealed.

I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and a violent man; yet because I had acted in ignorance and unbelief, I was shown mercy.
