in order that your faith would not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

But just as it is written, "[Things] which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, and have not entered into the heart of man, all that God has prepared for those who love him."

For who among men knows the things of a man, except the spirit of the man that [is] in him? Thus also no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

But the natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he is not able to understand [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

By no means [did I mean] the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people and swindlers or idolaters, since then you would have to depart out of the world.

Now concerning [the things] about which you wrote: "[It is] good for a man not to touch a woman."

But because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife and let each woman have her own husband.

You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.

Therefore, I consider this to be good because of the impending distress, that [it is] good for a man to be thus.

But I want you to know that Christ is the head of every man, and the man [is the] head of the woman, and [the] head of Christ [is] God.

Every man who prays or prophesies [while] having [something] on [his] head dishonors his head,

For indeed a man ought not to cover his head, [because he] is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.

For man is not from woman, but woman from man.

For indeed man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake of the man.

Nevertheless, neither [is] woman [anything] apart from man, nor [is] man [anything] apart from woman in the Lord.

For just as the woman [is] from the man, thus also the man [is] through the woman. But all [things] [are] from God.

And does not nature itself teach you that a man, if he wears long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a ringing brass gong or a clashing cymbal.

When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside the things of a child.

For since through a man [came] death, also through a man [came] the resurrection of the dead.

[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.

Thus also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul"; the last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.

The first man [is] from the earth, made of earth; the second man [is] from heaven.
