Appears 2 times in the Bible.
- Acts 4:9 are we being questioned today because we’ve done a good deed for a crippled man? Do you want to know how he was healed?
- 1 Timothy 6:2 If the masters are believers, that is no excuse for being disrespectful. Those slaves should work all the harder because their efforts are helping other believers who are well loved. Teach these things, Timothy, and encourage everyone to obey them.
