The Word of God

(Wordstudy KJV)

14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been [assured of,] knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 And that from a child, thou hast known the holy, Scriptures, [which are able,] to [make thee wise/] unto salvation, through faith, which is in Christ, Jesus.,

16 All, Scripture, is [given by inspiration of God,,] and is profitable, for doctrine,, for reproof,, for correction,, for instruction, in, righteousness:,

17 That the man of God, may be perfect,, [thoroughly furnished] unto all, good, works.,

(Wordstudy KJV)

Therefore, leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ,, let us [go on] unto perfection;, not laying again the foundation, of repentance, from dead, works, and of faith, toward God,

2 Of the doctrine, of baptisms,, and of [laying on,] of hands,, and of resurrection, of the dead,, and of eternal judgment,

14 Follow peace, with all, men, and holiness,, without which [no man,] shall see the Lord:

3 And this will we do, if God, permit.
