But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality. 24. Shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf. v. 8,15.

2 Cor. 9.6. He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7.

God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work. 10.

Rom. 8.2. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 15. Ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear. 21. The glorious liberty of the children of God.

Rom. 14.6. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

1 Cor. 7.22. He that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.

1 Cor. 8.8. Meat commendeth us not to God for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse. 9. But take heed lest by any means this liberty of your's become a stumbling-block to them that are weak. v. 1-13.

í Cor. 10.23. All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. 29.

Gal. 2.3. Neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circun cised: 4.

To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you. Act. 15.24-29.

Gal. 4.3. We, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: 4. But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5. To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the
