To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been made holy in Christ Jesus, saints by the selection of God, with all those who in every place give honour to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

For Christ sent me, not to give baptism, but to be a preacher of the good news: not with wise words, for fear that the cross of Christ might be made of no value.

And you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

We are made to seem foolish for Christ, but you are wise in Christ; we are feeble, but you are strong; you have glory, but we have shame.

For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.

Do you not see that your bodies are part of the body of Christ? how then may I take what is a part of the body of Christ and make it a part of the body of a loose woman? such a thing may not be.

The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?

But it is important for you to keep this fact in mind, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

But every man in his right order: Christ the first-fruits; then those who are Christ's at his coming.

Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Sosthenes the brother,

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I give praise to my God for you at all times, because of the grace of God which has been given to you in Christ Jesus;

Even as the witness of the Christ has been made certain among you:

So that having every grace you are living in the hope of the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Who will give you strength to the end, to be free from all sin in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God is true, through whom you have been given a part with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Now I make request to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you will all say the same thing, and that there may be no divisions among you, so that you may be in complete agreement, in the same mind and in the same opinion.

That is, that some of you say, I am of Paul; some say, I am of Apollos; some say, I am of Cephas; and some say, I am Christ's.

Is there a division in Christ? was Paul nailed to the cross for you? or were you given baptism in the name of Paul?

But we give the good news of Christ on the cross, a hard thing to the Jews, and a foolish thing to the Gentiles;

But to those of God's selection, Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power and the wisdom of God.

But God has given you a place in Christ Jesus, through whom God has given us wisdom and righteousness and salvation, and made us holy:

For I had made the decision to have knowledge of nothing among you but only of Jesus Christ on the cross.

For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.

And the teaching I gave you, my brothers, was such as I was able to give, not to those who have the Spirit, but to those who are still in the flesh, even to children in Christ.

For there is no other base for the building but that which has been put down, which is Jesus Christ.

Let us be judged as servants of Christ, and as those who are responsible for the secret things of God.

For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my dear and true child in the Lord; he will make clear to you my ways in Christ, even as I am teaching everywhere in every church.

Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.

And such were some of you; but you have been washed, you have been made holy, you have been given righteousness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

There is for us only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we are for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we have our being through him.

And so, through your knowledge, you are the cause of destruction to your brother, for whom Christ underwent death.

And in this way, doing evil to the brothers, and causing trouble to those whose faith is feeble, you are sinning against Christ.

If others have a part in this right over you, have we not even more? But we did not make use of our right, so that we might put nothing in the way of the good news of Christ.

To those without the law I was as one without the law, not as being without law to God, but as under law to Christ, so that I might give the good news to those without the law.

And the same holy drink: for they all took of the water from the holy rock which came after them: and the rock was Christ.

So take me for your example, even as I take Christ for mine.

For as the body is one, and has a number of parts, and all the parts make one body, so is Christ.
