90 I, 37 | says is something like this—God indeed permits marriage,
91 I, 37 | sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is our reasonable
92 I, 37 | should consider, not what God permits, but what He wishes:
93 I, 37 | acceptable and perfect will of God. It follows that what He

135 II, 2 | everyone who is born of God sinneth not, is that you

146 II, 3 | truly the unrighteousness of God would be great, if He merely
147 II, 3 | with the righteousness of God to forget good works, and
148 II, 3 | think that we are tempted by God, as we read in Genesis Abraham
149 II, 3 | tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted
150 II, 3 | I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil,

161 II, 4 | of the Lord, and to whom God had twice revealed Himself,
162 II, 4 | women forsook the love of God. It is related in the 4705
163 II, 4 | and Aaron 4708 offended God at the water of strife,
164 II, 4 | he says, “be just before God? Shall a man be spotless
165 II, 4 | to hell from the mount of God. Hence the Saviour says
166 II, 4 | who, being creatures of God, are of course capable of
167 II, 4 | dared to tempt the Son of God, and though smitten through
168 II, 5 | the world, is subject to God, and worships his Creator,
169 II, 5 | creatures were created by p. 392 God for nothing. But what need
170 II, 5 | and to eat meats, which God created for use? The Lord
171 II, 6 | that fasting is pleasing to God, and chastity accepted by
172 II, 6 | anything from the hand of God is superfluous, because
173 II, 6 | themselves to the worship of God, and know why they were
174 II, 6 | the belly for meats. But God will destroy both them and
175 II, 8 | endurance, its thought of God, particularly since the
176 II, 15 | But afterwards when 4780 God saw that the heart of man
177 II, 15 | alone, but on every word of God. He says to the Lord, “the
178 II, 15 | written with the finger of God. The people that ate and
179 II, 15 | cannot hear the word of God. 4784 “The beloved grew
180 II, 15 | him, and departed from the God of his salvation.” Hence
181 II, 15 | thou forget the Lord thy God.” In short the people ate
182 II, 15 | through his converse with God. And it was not, as some
183 II, 15 | of a forty days fast saw God on Mount Horeb, and heard
184 II, 15 | escaping the sentence of God, and in deferring the overthrow
185 II, 15 | He who in the eyes of God was worthy of compassion,
186 II, 15 | is that which propitiates God, tames lions, terrifies
187 II, 16 | abstain from food, which God created for use with thanksgiving.
188 II, 16 | praise every creature of God, and yet prefer leanness
189 II, 16 | spoken of: for the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking.”
190 II, 16 | the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth
191 II, 16 | he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.” For they who were
192 II, 17 | he was satisfied. Again, God by the mouth of Isaiah says
193 II, 17 | hunger is not pleasing to God which is made null and void
194 II, 17 | and plunder, and lust. If God does not desire fasting,
195 II, 17 | quails until the wrath of God came upon them? Why was
196 II, 17 | them? Why was the man of God at whose prophecy the hand
197 II, 17 | contrary to the command of God, 4833 immediately smitten?
198 II, 17 | tries to be the rival of God this does not prove that
199 II, 19 | temples, in order to show that God dwells in all alike. 4843 “
200 II, 19 | Son, and Holy Ghost, one God, so may they be one people
201 II, 21 | 21. Who is there even of God’s elect that would not be
202 II, 22 | His own prophet Ezekiel God clearly points out the difference
203 II, 22 | Romans: 4849 “According as God had dealt to each man a
204 II, 22 | planted, Apollos watered: but God gave the increase. So then,
205 II, 22 | neither he that watereth: but God that giveth the increase.
206 II, 22 | labourers together with God, ye are God’s husbandry,
207 II, 22 | together with God, ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’
208 II, 22 | God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” And again elsewhere: 4852 “
209 II, 22 | According to the grace of God which is given unto me,
210 II, 22 | stewards of the mysteries of God. Here, moreover, it is required
211 II, 23 | operations, but the same God who worketh all things in
212 II, 23 | Church, and says: 4857 “And God hath set some in the Church,
213 II, 23 | And again: 4861 “I thank God, I speak with tongues more
214 II, 23 | persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God
215 II, 23 | God. But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his
216 II, 23 | not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” But
217 II, 23 | higher or lower rank, and God is not unjust that He will
218 II, 23 | church the manifold wisdom of God.” You observe that it is
219 II, 23 | varied and manifold wisdom of God which is spoken of as existing
220 II, 24 | the day of judgment, if God were judging at the present
221 II, 24 | go into the sanctuary of God, and understand the end
222 II, 27 | it; and I will be their God and they shall be my people:
223 II, 28 | it through the bounty of God. The preparation is therefore
224 II, 28 | they are in the temple of God, that is on the right hand,
225 II, 28 | in the administration of God. You must not therefore
226 II, 29 | different degrees of merit. God does not dwell in all alike,
227 II, 29 | Christian people is one in God, and, as His well-beloved
228 II, 29 | soul and the essence of God are not the same, as the
229 II, 29 | power to become sons of God, even to them that believe
230 II, 29 | the will of man, but of God.” The Word was made flesh
231 II, 29 | that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and
232 II, 29 | Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in
233 II, 29 | abideth in him, and he in God.” If you believe in Christ,
234 II, 30 | all be equally esteemed by God, because the conditions
235 II, 30 | stood on the right hand of God, others on the left: 4909 “
236 II, 31 | all men are liars, that God alone may be true, 4912
237 II, 33 | not enter the cities of God’s ministers. If you say
238 II, 33 | such value were they in God’s eyes, that the family
239 II, 33 | by the determination of God. Among the sheep? But holy
240 II, 34 | courts of the house of our God.” Why did 4925 two tribes
241 II, 35 | faith. And we showed that God alone is faultless, and
242 II, 36 | many disciples. The Son of God taught in Judæa, and only
243 II, 37 | structure of the Cross. And so God says by Isaiah, 4937 “O
244 II, 37 | to repentance: who devour God’s people like bread: they
245 II, 37 | they have not called upon God.” Jeremiah announced the
246 II, 37 | instructor (for what does God require of them but to become
