提摩太後書 2:21
Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.
人若自潔,脫離卑賤的事,就必作貴重的器皿,成為聖潔,合乎主用,預備行各樣的善事。
帖撒羅尼迦前書 4:7
- 8
For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.
Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.
神召我們,本不是要我們沾染污穢,乃是要我們成為聖潔。
所以那棄絕的,不是棄絕人,乃是棄絕那賜聖靈給你們的神。
哥林多後書 7:1
Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.
親愛的弟兄啊,我們既有這等應許,就當潔淨自己,除去身體、靈魂一切的污穢,敬畏神,得以成聖。
帖撒羅尼迦後書 2:13
But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth.
主所愛的弟兄們哪,我們本該常為你們感謝神;因為他從起初揀選了你們,叫你們因信真道,又被聖靈感動,成為聖潔,能以得救。
帖撒羅尼迦前書 5:23
May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
願賜平安的神親自使你們全然成聖!又願你們的靈與魂與身子得蒙保守,在我主耶穌基督降臨的時候,完全無可指摘!
