Do you not know that your bodies are parts of Christ's body? Am I then to take away from Christ parts of his body, and make them parts of a prostitute's? Never!

But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, while a woman's head is her husband, and Christ's head is God.

But each in his own turn; Christ first, and then at Christ's coming those who belong to him.

The right way for a man to think of us is as Christ's servants, and managers authorized to distribute the secret truths of God.

To other people I would say, though not as Christ's command, if a Christian has a wife who is not a believer, and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her,

You must follow my example in this, as I am following Christ's.

Now you are Christ's body, and individually parts of it.

for everything is to be reduced to subjection and put under Christ's feet. But when it says that everything is subject to him, he is evidently excepted who reduced it all to subjection to him.

to the church of God at Corinth, to those who are consecrated by union with Christ Jesus, and called as God's people, like all those anywhere who call on the name of Jesus Christ, their Lord as well as ours;

but to those whom God has called, whether they are Jews or Greeks, a Christ who is God's power and God's wisdom.

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the good news??ut not with fine language, or the cross of Christ might seem an empty thing.

For who has ever known the Lord's thoughts, so that he can instruct him? But we share the thoughts of Christ.

But you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.

Does not the consecrated cup which we bless mean that in drinking it we share in the blood of Christ? Does not the bread that we break mean that in eating it we share in the body of Christ?
