And again, "The Lord takes knowledge of the reasonings of the wise--how useless they are."

As for us Apostles, let any one take this view of us--we are Christ's officers, and stewards of God's secret truths.

In writing this much, brethren, with special reference to Apollos and myself, I have done so for your sakes, in order to teach you by our example what those words mean, which say, "Nothing beyond what is written!" --so that you may cease to take sides in boastful rivalry, for one teacher against another.

Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them the members of a prostitute? No, indeed.

Were you a slave when God called you? Let not that weigh on your mind. And yet if you can get your freedom, take advantage of the opportunity.

But take care lest this liberty of yours should prove a hindrance to the progress of weak believers.

Have we not a right to take with us on our journeys a Christian sister as our wife, as the rest of the Apostles do--and the Lord's brothers and Peter?

Man does not take his origin from woman, but woman takes hers from man.

If the bugle--to take another example--gives an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle?
