For this end have I sent unto you Timothy, who is my beloved son and faithful in the Lord, who will bring to your remembrance my ways in Christ, how I teach every where in every church.

Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of an harlot?

Now as to the things concerning which ye wrote to me: it were good for a man not to touch a woman.

or saith not the law the same also? for it is written in the law of Moses, "Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn." Now doth God take care for oxen,

Wherefore let him, that thinks he standeth, take heed least he fall.

Doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man have long hair, it is a disgrace to him?

For I received from the Lord, that which I also delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which He was betrayed took bread:

and gave thanks, and brake it, and said, "Take and eat; this is my body, which is going to be broken for you: this do in remembrance of me."

And in the same manner He took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant ratified in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink of it, in remembrance of me."
