Bible Verses about 'Rather'

  • How much better to get wisdom than gold!
    To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
  • But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it!”
  • A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches,
    and favor is better than silver or gold.
  • Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
  • For a day in your courts is better
    than a thousand elsewhere.
    I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
    than live in the tents of wickedness.
  • Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, says the Lord God, and not rather that they should turn from their ways and live?
  • For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline.
  • Let us therefore no longer pass judgment on one another, but resolve instead never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of another.
  • Now, discipline always seems painful rather than pleasant at the time, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
  • Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what such people do secretly.
  • Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair, and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing; rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God's sight.
  • For I am longing to see you so that I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen you— or rather so that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.
  • As for those who in the present age are rich, command them not to be haughty, or to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but rather on God who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.
  • Nevertheless, do not rejoice at this, that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.
  • But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
  • Turn my heart to your decrees,
    and not to selfish gain.
  • Because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions. Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural, and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind and to things that should not be done.
  • But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.
  • Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.
  • But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
  • Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves.
  • For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received a spirit of adoption. When we cry, “Abba! Father!”
  • For “no human being will be justified in his sight” by deeds prescribed by the law, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
  • For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become slaves to one another.
  • Because we look not at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen; for what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal.

And, fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
