But I exhort you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

But I say this, that every one of you says, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel; not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

For the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those being lost, but to us being saved, it is the power of God.

but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness.

But to them, the called-out ones, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

so that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

But, we speak wisdom among those who are perfect; yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, that come to nothing.

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, which God has hidden, predetermining it before the world for our glory;

But as it is written, "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard," nor has it entered into the heart of man, "the things which God has prepared for those who love Him."

But God has revealed them to us by His Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God.

But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit from God, so that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.

These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged by no one.

For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

And I, brothers, could not speak to you as to spiritual ones, but as to fleshly, as to babes in Christ.

Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, even as the Lord gave to each?

I have planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.

So then neither is he who plants anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let every man be careful how he builds on it.

If anyone's work shall be burned up, he shall suffer loss. But he shall be saved, yet so as by fire.

But to me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by a man's day; but I do not judge my own self,

for I know nothing by myself. Yet I have not been justified by this, but He who judges me is the Lord.

We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are honorable, but we are despised.

I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills. And I will not know the speech of those who are puffed up, but the power.

For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

For as being absent in body but present in spirit, I indeed have judged already as though I were present concerning him who worked out this thing;

Therefore let us keep the feast; not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

But now I have written to you not to associate intimately, if any man called a brother and is either a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one not to eat.

But God judges those who are outside. Therefore put out from you the evil one.

But brother goes to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

But you do wrong and defraud, and these things to brothers.

And such were some of you. But you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Meats for the belly and the belly for meats, but God shall destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord is for the body.

But he being joined to the Lord is one spirit.

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

for you are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

But, because of the fornications, let each have his own wife, and let each have her own husband.

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

But I speak this according to permission, not according to commandment.

For I would that all men were even as I myself am. But each has his proper gift from God, one according to this manner and another according to that.

But if they do not have self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.

And to the married I command (not I, but the Lord), a woman not to be separated from her husband.

But if she is indeed separated, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to leave his wife.

But to the rest I speak, not the Lord, If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is pleased to dwell with him, do not let him put her away.

For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; else your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.

But if the unbelieving one separates, let him be separated. A brother or a sister is not in bondage in such cases, but God has called us in peace.

But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all churches.

Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.

Were you called as a slave? It does not matter to you, but if you are able to become free, use it rather.

You are bought with a price, do not be the slaves of men.

But concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord. Yet I give my judgment, as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be faithful.

But if you do marry, you did not sin; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you.

But this I say, brothers, The time is short. It remains that both those who have wives should be as not having one.

But I desire you to be without anxiety. The one who is unmarried cares for the things that belong to the Lord, how to please the Lord.

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

The wife and the virgin are different. The unmarried woman cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare on you, but for that which is right, and that you may attend on the Lord without distraction.

But if anyone thinks it behaving himself indecently toward his virgin (if she is past her prime, and so it ought to be) let him do what he will; he does not sin; let them marry.

But he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but who has authority over his own will (and has so judged in his heart that he will keep his virginity) he does well.

So then he who gives in marriage does well. But he who does not give in marriage does better.

The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband lives, but if her husband sleeps in death, she is at liberty to be remarried to whom she will, only in the Lord.

But she is happier if she so remains, according to my judgment. And I also think that I have the Spirit of God.

But concerning the sacrifices to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

But if any one loves God, he has been known of him.

but there is to us only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we by Him.

But this knowledge is not in all. But some being aware of the idol eat as an idolatrous sacrifice until now, and their conscience being weak is defiled.

But food does not commend us to God. For neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.

But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours becomes a stumbling block to those who are weak.

If others have a share of this authority over you, rather should not we? But we have not used this authority, but we endured all things lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it is good for me rather to die than that anyone nullify my glorying.

For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I am entrusted with a stewardship.

To those who are outside Law, I became as outside Law (not being outside law to God, but under the Law to Christ), so that I might gain those who are outside Law.

Do you not know that those running in a race all run, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain.

And everyone who strives for the mastery is temperate in all things. Then those truly that they may receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

But I buffet my body, and lead it captive, lest proclaiming to others I myself might be rejected.

But with many of them God was not well pleased, for they were scattered in the wilderness.

No temptation has taken you but what is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear it.

But I say that the things which the nations sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God. And I do not desire that you should have fellowship with demons.

All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful to me, but not all things build up.

Let no one seek his own, but each one another's.

But if anyone says to you, This is slain in sacrifice to idols, do not eat for the sake of him who showed it, and for conscience' sake; "for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it";

conscience, I say, not your own, but the other's. For why is my liberty judged by another's conscience?

even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, so that they may be saved.

But I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and you keep the doctrines as I delivered them to you.

But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head; for that is even the same as if she were shaved.

For if the woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn. But if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled.

For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man.

For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

Nor was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

But neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord.

For as the woman is of the man, even so the man is also through the woman; but all things of God.

But if a woman should have long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her in place of a veil.
