- For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
- Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
- Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
- Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
- Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.
- But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
A wise son maketh a glad father:
but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
