Strona 106 - And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.
Strona 62 - Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you, bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.
Strona 59 - Think not that I am come to send peace on earth ; I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Strona 87 - And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit. and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
Strona 92 - Now I want you to contrast this state of religious rapture with some of our modern phases of mind in parallel circumstances. You see that the promise of Jeremiah's, "Thou shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry," is immediately followed by this, " Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria." And again, at the yearly feast to the Lord in Shiloh, the dancing of the virgins was in the midst of the vineyards (Judges xxi., 21), the feast of the vintage being in the south, as...
Strona 57 - Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, No man taketh it from me; but I lay it down of myself. This commandment received I of my Father.
