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

It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand the things freely given to us by God.

Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men's hearts. Then every man will receive his praise from God.

And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to have mourned? Let the one who has done this be removed from your midst.

God judges those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you."

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

I wish that all men were as I myself am. But each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

To the married I give charge, not I but the Lord, that the wife should not separate from her husband

Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek marriage.

I mean, brethren, the appointed time has grown very short; so that from now on, those who have wives should live as though they had none,

But I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;

yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we exist.

Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working for a living?

Do I say this merely from a human point of view? Does not the Law say the same thing?

If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you?

If others share this right of support from you, do not we all the more? Nevertheless, we did not make use of this right, but we endure anything rather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.

Do you not know that those who work in the temple get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar?

In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living from the gospel.

For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, that I might win the more.

and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.

Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man;

For as woman was made from man, so also man is born of woman. And all things are from God.

For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread,

Now if Christ is preached that he has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

The first man was from the earth, of dust; the second man is from heaven.
