Matthew 13:33

A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.

Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
