According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building upon [it]. But each one must direct his attention to how he is building upon [it].

For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

But I want you to be free from care. The unmarried person cares for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord.

But the one who is married cares for the things of the world, how he may please his wife,

and he is divided. And the unmarried woman or the virgin cares for the things of the Lord, in order that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But the married woman cares for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking with tongues, how do I benefit you, unless I speak to you either with a revelation or with knowledge or with a prophecy or with a teaching?

Likewise, the inanimate things which produce a sound, whether flute or lyre, if they do not produce a distinction in the tones, how will it be known what is played on the flute or on the lyre?

And so you through the tongue, unless you produce a clear message, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air.

For otherwise, if you praise in [your] spirit, how will the one who fills the place of the outsider say the "amen" at your thanksgiving, because he does not know what you are saying?

Now if Christ is preached as raised up from the dead, how do some among you say that [there] is no resurrection of the dead?

But someone will say, "How are the dead raised? And with what sort of body do they come?"
