Galatians 2:2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain. Ephesians 6:5 Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ. To Those Who Are of the Household of Faith Galatians 6:10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith. 2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: To Those Who Were Near Ephesians 2:17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near.

10 To Those Who Are Defiled Titus 1:15 To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. To Those Who Eagerly Wait Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation. To Those Who Are Trained Proverbs 5:13 I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me! Hebrews 5:14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Hebrews 12:11 Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. To Those Who Send/Are Sent Proverbs 10:26 As vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, So is the lazy man to those who send him. Proverbs 22:21 That I may make you know the certainty of the words of truth, That you may answer words of truth To those who send to you? Proverbs 25:13 Like the cold of snow in time of harvest Is a faithful messenger to those who send him, For he refreshes the soul of his masters. John 1:22 Then they said to him, "Who are you, that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?" 1 Peter 2:14 or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good.
