Mat 16:18
And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my
church,
and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Mat 18:17 If
he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the
church.
And if he refuses to listen even to the
church,
let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.
Act 5:11 And
great fear came upon the whole
church
and upon all who heard of these things.
Act 8:1 And
Saul approved of his execution. And there arose on that day a
great persecution against the
church
in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions
of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.
Act 8:3 But
Saul was ravaging the
church,
and entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and
committed them to prison.
Act 9:31 So
the church
throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was
being built up. And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the
comfort of the Holy Spirit, it multiplied.
Act 11:22
The report of this came to the ears of the
church
in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
Act 11:26
and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a
whole year they met with the
church
and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples
were first called Christians.
Act 12:1
About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who
belonged to the
church.
Act 12:5 So
Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to
God by the
church.
Act 13:1 Now
there were in the
church
at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was
called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a member of the court of
Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Act 14:23
And when they had appointed elders for them in every
church,
with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom
they had believed.
Act 14:27
And when they arrived and gathered the
church
together, they declared all that God had done with them, and how
he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.
Act 15:3 So,
being sent on their way by the
church,
they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, describing in
detail the conversion of the Gentiles, and brought great joy to
all the brothers.
Act 15:4
When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the
church
and the apostles and the elders, and they declared all that God
had done with them.
Act 15:22
Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the
whole
church,
to choose men from among them and send them to Antioch with Paul
and Barnabas. They sent Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas,
leading men among the brothers,
Act 18:22
When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the
church,
and then went down to Antioch.
Act 20:17
Now from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the
church
to come to him.
Act 20:28
Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in
which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the
church
of God, which he obtained with his own blood.
Rom 16:1 I
commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the
church
at Cenchreae,

Greet also the
church
in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first
convert to Christ in Asia.
Rom 16:23
Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole
church,
greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus,

1Co 1:2 To
the church
of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus,
called to be saints together with all those who in every place
call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and
ours:
1Co 4:17
That is why I sent you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in
the Lord, to remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach them
everywhere in every
church.
1Co 5:12 For
what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside
the church
whom you are to judge?
1Co 6:4 So
if you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who
have no standing in the
church?
1Co 10:32
Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the
church
of God,
1Co 11:18
For, in the first place, when you come together as a
church,
I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in
part,
1Co 11:22
What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you
despise the
church
of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to
you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.
1Co 12:28
And God has appointed in the
church
first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles,
then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various
kinds of tongues.
1Co 14:4 The
one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who
prophesies builds up the
church.
1Co 14:5 Now
I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy.
The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in
tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the
church
may be built up.
1Co 14:12 So
with yourselves, since you are eager for manifestations of the
Spirit, strive to excel in building up the
church.
1Co 14:19
Nevertheless, in
church
I would rather speak five words with my mind in order to
instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.
1Co 14:23
If, therefore, the whole
church
comes together and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or
unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are out of your
minds?
1Co 14:28
But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep
silent in
church
and speak to himself and to God.
1Co 14:35 If
there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their
husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in
church.
1Co 15:9 For
I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an
apostle, because I persecuted the
church
of God.
1Co 16:19
The churches
of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the
church
in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.
2Co 1:1
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy
our brother, To the
church
of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the
whole of Achaia
Gal 1:13 For
you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted
the church
of God violently and tried to destroy it.
Eph 1:22 And
he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all
things to the
church,
Eph 3:10 so
that through the
church
the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers
and authorities in the heavenly places.
Eph 3:21 to
him be glory in the
church
and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and
ever. Amen.
Eph 5:23 For
the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head
of the
church,
his body, and is himself its Savior.
Eph 5:24 Now
as the
church
submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to
their husbands.
Eph 5:25
Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the
church
and gave himself up for her,
Eph 5:27 so
that he might present the
church
to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such
thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.
Eph 5:29 For
no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it,
just as Christ does the
church,
Eph 5:32
This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to
Christ and the
church.
Phi 3:6 as
to zeal, a persecutor of the
church;
as to righteousness, under the law blameless.
Phi 4:15 And
you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the
gospel, when I left Macedonia, no
church
entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except
you only.
Col 1:18 And
he is the head of the body, the
church.
He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in
everything he might be preeminent.
Col 1:24 Now
I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am
filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake
of his body, that is, the
church,
Col 4:15
Give my greetings to the brothers at Laodicea, and to Nympha and
the church
in her house.
Col 4:16 And
when this letter has been read among you, have it also read in
the church
of the Laodiceans; and see that you also read the letter from
Laodicea.
1Th 1:1
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the
church
of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ: Grace to you and peace.
2Th 1:1
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the
church
of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ:
1Ti 3:5 for
if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how
will he care for God's
church?
1Ti 3:15 if
I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household
of God, which is the
church
of the living God, a pillar and buttress of truth.
1Ti 5:16 If
any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her care
for them. Let the
church
not be burdened, so that it may care for those who are really
widows.
Phm 1:2 and
Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier, and the
church
in your house:
Jam 5:14 Is
anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the
church,
and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name
of the Lord.
3Jo 1:6 who
testified to your love before the
church.
You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner
worthy of God.
3Jo 1:9 I
have written something to the
church,
but Diotrephes, who likes to put himself first, does not
acknowledge our authority.
3Jo 1:10 So
if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, talking wicked
nonsense against us. And not content with that, he refuses to
welcome the brothers, and also stops those who want to and puts
them out of the
church.
