Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 1 Thessalonians 2:1 For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain : 1 Thessalonians 3:5 For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain . 1 Timothy 1:6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 1 Timothy 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: 2 Timothy 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. Titus 1:10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain . James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain . James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? James 4:5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain , The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 1 Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
