New Testament: Works of Righteousness | Hebrews 13

How should we treat strangers and "those bonds?"
 "Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body." (verses 1-3)

How is marriage looked upon?
"Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge."
(verse 4)

What warnings are given about covetousness?
"Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (verse 5)

What is "the same, yesterday and today and forever?"
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." (verse 8)

How are we sanctified?
"Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered, without the gate."
(verse 12)

How do we respond to those who rule over us?
"Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you."
(verse 17)

Who did Paul ask the people to pray for?
"Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly."
(verse 18)
