Where the connections lead

Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

The gold bar shows how strongly the cross-reference sources tie the two verses together: a long bar means many compiled references make the connection, a short one means few.

1 Corinthians 10:20–21No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God. And I do not want you to be participants with demons.1 Kings 18:21Then Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him. But if Baal is God, follow him.” But the people did not answer a word.1 John 5:11–13And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.1 Samuel 2:12Now the sons of Eli were wicked men; they had no regard for the LORD Exodus 23:32You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods.Deuteronomy 13:13that wicked men have arisen from among you and have led the people of their city astray, saying, “Let us go and serve other gods” (which you have not known),1 Samuel 5:2–4carried it into the temple of Dagon, and set it beside his statue.Judges 19:22While they were enjoying themselves, suddenly the wicked men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they said to the old man who owned the house, “Bring out the man who came to your house, so we can have relations with him!”Acts 5:14Yet more and more believers were brought to the Lord—large numbers of both men and women.Mark 16:16Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.Acts 8:20But Peter replied, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!Ezra 4:3But Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and the other heads of the families of Israel replied, “You have no part with us in building a house for our God, since we alone must build it for the LORD, the God of Israel, as Cyrus king of Persia has commanded us.”2 Kings 3:13Elisha, however, said to the king of Israel, “What have we to do with each other? Go to the prophets of your father and of your mother!” “No,” replied the king of Israel, “for it is the LORD who has summoned these three kings to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”1 Timothy 5:8If anyone does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
