'One' in the Bible

so that no one can say that you were baptized in my name!

so that no one can boast in his presence.

so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord."

For who among men knows the things of a man except the man's spirit within him? So too, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

The one who is spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is understood by no one.

So neither the one who plants counts for anything, nor the one who waters, but God who causes the growth.

The one who plants and the one who waters work as one, but each will receive his reward according to his work.

According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master-builder I laid a foundation, but someone else builds on it. And each one must be careful how he builds.

For no one can lay any foundation other than what is being laid, which is Jesus Christ.

One should think about us this way -- as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

Now what is sought in stewards is that one be found faithful.

For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not acquitted because of this. The one who judges me is the Lord.

I have applied these things to myself and Apollos because of you, brothers and sisters, so that through us you may learn "not to go beyond what is written," so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of the one against the other.

And you are proud! Shouldn't you have been deeply sorrowful instead and removed the one who did this from among you?

For even though I am absent physically, I am present in spirit. And I have already judged the one who did this, just as though I were present.

I say this to your shame! Is there no one among you wise enough to settle disputes between fellow Christians?

Or do you not know that anyone who is united with a prostitute is one body with her? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh."

But the one united with the Lord is one spirit with him.

I wish that everyone was as I am. But each has his own gift from God, one this way, another that.

Nevertheless, as the Lord has assigned to each one, as God has called each person, so must he live. I give this sort of direction in all the churches.

Let each one remain in that situation in life in which he was called.

For the one who was called in the Lord as a slave is the Lord's freedman. In the same way, the one who was called as a free person is Christ's slave.

With regard to the question about people who have never married, I have no command from the Lord, but I give my opinion as one shown mercy by the Lord to be trustworthy.

The one bound to a wife should not seek divorce. The one released from a wife should not seek marriage.

So then, the one who marries his own virgin does well, but the one who does not, does better.

With regard then to eating food sacrificed to idols, we know that "an idol in this world is nothing," and that "there is no God but one."

yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we live, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we live.

For this reason, if food causes my brother or sister to sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I may not cause one of them to sin.

Or is he not surely speaking for our benefit? It was written for us, because the one plowing and threshing ought to work in hope of enjoying the harvest.

But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing these things so that something will be done for me. In fact, it would be better for me to die than -- no one will deprive me of my reason for boasting!

To the Jews I became like a Jew to gain the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law) to gain those under the law.

To those free from the law I became like one free from the law (though I am not free from God's law but under the law of Christ) to gain those free from the law.

Do you not know that all the runners in a stadium compete, but only one receives the prize? So run to win.

Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.

So I do not run uncertainly or box like one who hits only air.

So let the one who thinks he is standing be careful that he does not fall.

Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all share the one bread.

But if someone says to you, "This is from a sacrifice," do not eat, because of the one who told you and because of conscience --

But any woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is one and the same thing as having a shaved head.

For when it is time to eat, everyone proceeds with his own supper. One is hungry and another becomes drunk.

For the one who eats and drinks without careful regard for the body eats and drinks judgment against himself.

So then, my brothers and sisters, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

So I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.

For one person is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, and another the message of knowledge according to the same Spirit,

to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

It is one and the same Spirit, distributing as he decides to each person, who produces all these things.

For just as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body -- though many -- are one body, so too is Christ.

For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body. Whether Jews or Greeks or slaves or free, we were all made to drink of the one Spirit.

So now there are many members, but one body.

so that there may be no division in the body, but the members may have mutual concern for one another.

If one member suffers, everyone suffers with it. If a member is honored, all rejoice with it.

For the one speaking in a tongue does not speak to people but to God, for no one understands; he is speaking mysteries by the Spirit.

But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouragement, and consolation.

The one who speaks in a tongue builds himself up, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.

I wish you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be strengthened.

So then, one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.

What should you do then, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each one has a song, has a lesson, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all these things be done for the strengthening of the church.

If someone speaks in a tongue, it should be two, or at the most three, one after the other, and someone must interpret.

For you can all prophesy one after another, so all can learn and be encouraged.

Then he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.

Last of all, as though to one born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.

For he has put everything in subjection under his feet. But when it says "everything" has been put in subjection, it is clear that this does not include the one who put everything in subjection to him.

And when all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the one who subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.

All flesh is not the same: People have one flesh, animals have another, birds and fish another.

And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. The glory of the heavenly body is one sort and the earthly another.

There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.

Like the one made of dust, so too are those made of dust, and like the one from heaven, so too those who are heavenly.

So then, let no one treat him with contempt. But send him on his way in peace so that he may come to me. For I am expecting him with the brothers.

All the brothers and sisters send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
