Matthew 6:25 For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing? Matthew 12:10 where there was a man with a shrivelled arm. And they questioned Him, "Is it right to cure people on the Sabbath?" Their intention was to bring a charge against Him. Matthew 12:16 And charged them that they should not make him known: Matthew 16:20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

Matthew 27:37 Over His head they placed a written statement of the charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Mark 3:2 They closely watched Him to see whether He would cure him on the Sabbath--so as to have a charge to bring against Him.

John 8:6 They asked this in order to put Him to the test, so that they might have some charge to bring against Him. But Jesus leant forward and began to write with His finger on the ground.

John 19:6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify! Crucify!"

Acts 25:4 Howbeit Festus answered, that Paul was kept in charge at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart 'thither' shortly. Acts 25:16 My reply was that it is not the custom among the Romans to give up any one for punishment before the accused has had his accusers face to face, and has had an opportunity of defending himself against the charge which has been brought against him. Acts 25:18 Concerning whom, when the accusers stood up, they brought no charge of such things as I supposed; Acts 28:19 But, at last, the opposition of the Jews compelled me to appeal to Caesar; not however that I had any charge to bring against my nation. Romans 3:8 And why should we not say--for so they wickedly misrepresent us, and so some charge us with arguing--"Let us do evil that good may come"?

Not in the least; for we have already charged all Jews and Gentiles alike with being in thraldom to sin. Romans 4:8 Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin."

Forgive me this injury. 2 Corinthians 12:14 Behold, this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be in laziness a charge; for I do not seek yours, but you; for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 2 Corinthians 13:1 This intended visit of mine is my third visit to you.
