From verse 1

  1. Galatians 1:6–12Rank 1 from verse 1
    Open

    6I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

    7Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

    8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

    9As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

    10For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

    11But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

    12For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

  2. 1 Corinthians 1:23–24Rank 2 from verse 1
    Open

    23But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

    24But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

  3. 1 Peter 5:12Rank 3 from verse 1
    Open

    12By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.

  4. 2 Corinthians 1:24Rank 4 from verse 1
    Open

    24Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

  5. 1 Corinthians 15:3–11Rank 5 from verse 1
    Open

    3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

    4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

    5And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

    6After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

    7After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.

    8And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

    9For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

    10But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

    11Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
