⁹ These you may have for food of all things living in the water: anything living in the water, in the seas or rivers, which has special parts for swimming and skin formed of thin plates, may be used for food.

⁹ And of the things living in the waters, you may take all those who have wings for swimming with and skins formed of thin plates.

¹⁰ But any which have no skin-plates or wings for swimming, you may not take; they are unclean for you.

²¹ Preaching to Jews and to Greeks the need for a turning of the heart to God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

⁶ Because in Christ Jesus, having circumcision or not having circumcision are equally of no profit; but only faith working through love.

¹⁸ But a man may say, You have faith and I have works; let me see your faith without your works, and I will make my faith clear to you by my works.

² In this way, we are certain that we have love for the children of God, when we have love for God and keep his laws.

³ For loving God is keeping his laws: and his laws are not hard.

⁴ Anything which comes from God is able to overcome the world: and the power by which we have overcome the world is our faith.

⁵ Who is able to overcome the world but the man who has faith that Jesus is the Son of God?
