'According' in the Bible

Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,

but in his own seasons manifested his word in the message, wherewith I was intrusted according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict the gainsayers.

not by works done in righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
