From Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Sosthenes, our brother,

to the church of God that is in Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, and called to be saints, with all those in every place who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours.

God is faithful, by whom you were called into fellowship with his son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

But if the unbeliever wants a divorce, let it take place. In these circumstances the brother or sister is not bound. God has called you in peace.

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.

Was anyone called after he had been circumcised? He should not try to undo his circumcision. Was anyone called who is uncircumcised? He should not get circumcised.

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

Were you called as a slave? Do not worry about it. But if indeed you are able to be free, make the most of the opportunity.

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.

In whatever situation someone was called, brothers and sisters, let him remain in it with God.

If after all there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),

But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or uninformed person enters, he will be convicted by all, he will be called to account by all.

For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
