because in everything you are enriched in him, in all speech and in all knowledge;

so that you are deficient in no spiritual gift; awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

For it has been revealed to me concerning you, my brethren, by those who are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

in order that no one may say that you are baptized in my name.

For the word of the cross is foolishness indeed to those who are lost; but to those who are saved it is the power of God.

but to you who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

For you see your calling, brethren, that there are not many wise according to the flesh, not many influential, not many high-born:

and God has chosen the base-born of the world, and those of no reputation, the things which are not, that He may set at nought the things which are,

But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God was made unto us wisdom, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

But we speak wisdom among the perfect: not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nought:

But the intellectual man receives not the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him; and he is not able to know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

I have fed you with milk, not with meat; for you were not yet able. But ye are not now yet able:

for ye are yet carnal. For where there are envy and strife among you, are you not carnal, and walking about according to man?

For when one may say, I am indeed of Paul; another, I am of Apollos; are you not men?

But he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and each one shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.

For we are God's fellow-laborers; ye are God's farm; ye are God's building.

Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?

If any one destroys the temple of God, him will God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which ye are.

And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

So let no one boast among men; for all things are yours;

All things are yours; and ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

Already are ye filled, already have ye become rich; you did reign without us: and I would indeed that you did reign, in order that we also might reign along with you.

We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are glorious, but we are dishonorable.

until this hour we both hunger and thirst, and suffer for insufficient clothing, and are buffeted; and we tramp,

For this same thing I sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ Jesus, as I teach everywhere in every church.

Cleanse away the old leaven, in order that you may be a new lump, as you are free from leaven; for Christ has truly become our Passover.

Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy of the smallest judgments?

Then if indeed you have judgments appertaining to this life, do you sit those down who are little esteemed in the church?

Indeed it is already altogether a small matter to you, that you have law-suits one with another. Why do you not rather stiffer injustice? why are you not rather defrauded?

All things are lawful to me, but all things are not profitable: all things are lawful, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? then taking the members of Christ, shall I make them the members of a harlot? it could not be so.

Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? and you are not your own;

For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by the brother. Since then your children are unclean; but now they are holy.

Have you been called being a slave? let it not be a care to you: but if indeed you are able to become free, use it in preference.

For if indeed there are those who are called gods, whether in heaven or upon the earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;

But meat will not commend us to God; neither if we eat are we the better; nor if we eat not are we the worse.

And you, sinning so against the brethren, and wounding their weak conscience, are sinning against Christ.

Am I not free? am I not an apostle? have I not seen the Lord Jesus? are you not my work in the Lord?

If I am not an apostle to others, but I am to you at least: for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

No temptation has overtaken you, except that which is human: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation, He will also make a way of escape, in order that you may be able to bear it.

Because we, being many, are one bread, one body: for we all partake of one bread.

See Israel after the flesh: are not all eating the sacrifices communicants of the altar?

You are not able to drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of demons: you are not able to partake of the table of the Lord, and the table of demons.

Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? whether are we stronger than he?

All things are lawful; but all things are not profitable. All things are lawful; but all things do not edify.

Therefore many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.

But being judged, by the Lord we are chastised, in order that we may not be condemned along with the world.

Divine love never falls: but whether there are prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.

If it so happens that there are so many kinds of voices in the world, and nothing without a voice;

So also you, since you are zealots of spirits, seek that you may abound unto the edification of the church.

Since if you may bless with the spirit, how will one occupying the place of the unlearned say Amen to your blessing? since he does not know what you are saying.

So tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelievers: and prophecy is not for the unbelievers, but for the believers.

Then if the whole church may come together, and all may speak with tongues, and the unlearned or unbelievers may come in, will they not say that you are gone mad?

the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and thus falling upon his face he will worship God, proclaiming that God is truly in you.

For you are all able to prophesy one by one, in order that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

Truly the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets;

If any one seems to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him understand the things which I write to you, that they are of the Lord;

by which you are also saved; which word I preached to you, if you hold it fast, otherwise you believed in vain.

Why indeed are we in jeopardy every hour?

But one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what body do they come?

As was the earthy, such are they also who are earthy; and as was the heavenly, such are they also who are heavenly.

But I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood are not able to inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.

for a door is opened unto me great and effectual, and there are many antagonizing.

for they refreshed my spirit and yours. Acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
