Now the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Flee sexual immorality. "Every sin that a man does is outside the body," but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife.

Do not deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to prayer, and may be together again, that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

But if any man thinks that he is behaving inappropriately toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of her age, and if need so requires, let him do what he desires. He does not sin. Let them marry.

But he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own heart, to keep his own virgin, does well.

So then both he who gives his own virgin in marriage does well, and he who does not give her in marriage does better.

But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he does not yet know as he ought to know.

But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak.

What soldier ever serves at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard, and does not eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock, and does not drink from the flock's milk?

Do I speak these things according to the ways of men? Or does not the Law also say the same thing?

or does he say it assuredly for our sake? Yes, it was written for our sake, because he who plows ought to plow in hope, and he who threshes in the hope of having a share.

Therefore let him who thinks he stands be careful that he does not fall.

Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

For he who eats and drinks eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he does not discern the body.

Love is patient and is kind; love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud,

does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not irritable, does not keep a record of wrongs;

does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;

Otherwise if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the "Amen" at your giving of thanks, seeing he does not know what you say?

But if someone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.

If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.

Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

If any man does not love the Lord, let him be accursed. Come, Lord.
