As it says in the holy Writings, I will put an end to the wisdom of the wise, and will put on one side the designs of those who have knowledge.

For since in accordance with the wisdom of God the world had never in reality, by means of its wisdom, come to know God, God chose through the nonsense of the message proclaimed, to save the people who put their faith in Him.

Just the opposite: God chose what the world calls foolish to put the wise to shame, what the world calls weak to put the strong to shame,

what the world calls of low degree, yea, what it counts as nothing and what it thinks does not exist, God chose to put a stop to what it thinks exists,

and my teaching and message were not put in plausible, philosophical language, but they were attended with convincing spiritual power,

Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross:

But the spiritual man [the spiritually mature Christian] judges all things [questions, examines and applies what the Holy Spirit reveals], yet is himself judged by no one [the unbeliever cannot judge and understand the believer’s spiritual nature].

In the measure of the grace given to me, I, as a wise master-builder, have put the base in position, and another goes on building on it. But let every man take care what he puts on it.

For there is no other base for the building but that which has been put down, which is Jesus Christ.

And whether one puts into the building on the foundation gold or silver or costly stones, or wood or hay or straw,

will be expos'd. for the time of tryal will show it: it shall be discovered by the fire, which will put each sort of work to the test.

If the fire puts an end to any man's work, it will be his loss: but he will get salvation himself, though as by fire.

If anyone makes the house of God unclean, God will put an end to him; for the house of God is holy, and you are his house.

But [as for me personally] it matters very little to me that I may be judged by you or any human court [on this point]; in fact, I do not even judge myself.

For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on exhibition at the disgraced end of the procession, as they do with men who are doomed to die in the arena.

we have worked with our hands for a living. When people abuse us, we bless them, when they persecute us, we put up with it,

I am not saying these things to put you to shame, but so that, as my dear children, you may see what is right.

For this cause have I sent unto you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who shall put you in remembrance of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every church.

And ye swell and have not rather sorrowed, that he which hath done this deed might be put from among you.

Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.

But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

If then there are questions to be judged in connection with the things of this life, why do you put them in the hands of those who have no position in the church?

I say this to put you to shame. Is there not among you one wise man who may be able to give a decision between his brothers?

More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me, but I will not put myself under the power of any.

Foods are intended for the stomach, and the stomach for foods, but God will finally put a stop to both of them. The body is not intended for sexual immorality but for the service of the Lord, and the Lord is for the body to serve.

For married people these are my instructions (and they are the Lord's, not mine). A wife is not to separate from her husband ??11 if she has separated, she must either remain single or be reconciled to him ??and a husband must not put away his wife.

But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

And the wife which hath a husband not a believer, and he chuses to dwell with her, let her not put him away.

It is for your welfare that I am saying this, not to put restraint on you, but to foster good order and to help you to an undivided devotion to the Lord.

This is my defense to those who would put me on trial and interrogate me [concerning my authority as an apostle]:

Who ever goes to war without looking to someone to be responsible for his payment? who puts in vines and does not take the fruit of them? or who takes care of sheep without drinking of their milk?

For it is written in the law of Moses [Deut. 25:4], "You should not put a muzzle on an ox while it tramples over the grain." Is it the oxen that God is concerned about?

If others enjoy this right over you, don't we have a stronger claim? But we did not use this right. On the contrary, we tolerate everything in order not to put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of the Messiah.

In that I preach the gospel, I have nothing to rejoice of. For necessity is put unto me. Woe is it unto me if I preach not the gospel.

What then is my reward? That when I preach the gospel, I may put the gospel of Christ to no expence, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

but I put my body under severe discipline, and bring it into subjection, lest, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.

nor put Christ to the test, as some of them tested [him], and were destroyed by snakes,

And do not murmur [in unwarranted discontent], as some of them did—and were destroyed by the destroyer.

Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.

You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.

If a Gentile makes a feast for you, and you are pleased to go as a guest, take whatever is put before you, without question of right or wrong.

Put no stumbling-block in the way of Jews or Greeks or the church of God.

Every man who takes part in prayer, or gives teaching as a prophet, with his head covered, puts shame on his head.

But every woman who does so with her head unveiled, puts shame on her head: for it is the same as if her hair was cut off.

What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this I praise you not.

For a man puts himself in danger, if he takes part in the holy meal without being conscious that it is the Lord's body.

If any man is in need of food, let him take his meal in his house; so that you may not come together to your damage. And the rest I will put in order when I come.

But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.

and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,

However, our attractive parts don't need this. But God has put the body together and has given special honor to the parts that lack it,

And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.

Love is patient and kind. Love is not envious or boastful. It does not put on airs.

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I imagined as a child: but as soon as I was a man I put away childishness.

I thank God that I speak in [unknown] tongues more than all of you;

And if they have a desire for knowledge about anything, let them put questions to their husbands privately: for talking in the church puts shame on a woman.

To sum up, my brothers. Set your heart on the prophetic gift, and do not put any check upon speaking in 'tongues';

And he was put in the place of the dead; and on the third day he came back from the dead, as it says in the Writings;

If {we have put our hope} in Christ in this life only, we are of all people most pitiable.

Then cometh the end, when he hath delivered up the kingdom to God the father, when he hath put down all rule, authority, and power.

For he must reign till he have put all his enemies under his feet.

The last enemy that is destroyed is death. For he hath put all things under his feet.

"For he hath put all things under his feet." But when he saith, "All things are put under him," it is manifest, that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.

When all things are subdued unto him: then shall the son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all things.

Be awake to righteousness and keep yourselves from sin; for some have no knowledge of God: I say this to put you to shame.

Foolish man, it is necessary for the seed which you put into the earth to undergo death in order that it may come to life again:

And when you put it into the earth, you do not put in the body which it will be, but only the seed, of grain or some other sort of plant;

This is the way the Scripture puts it too, "The first man Adam became a living creature." The last Adam has become a life-giving Spirit.

For this corruptible must put on incorruptibility: and this mortal must put on immortality.

When this corruptible hath put on incorruptibility: and this mortal hath put on immortality: then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, "Death is consumed into victory."

Upon some Sunday, let every one of you put aside at home, and lay up whatsoever he thinketh meet, that there be no gatherings when I come.

If Timothy reaches you, put him at his ease among you, for he is devoted to the Lord's work, just as I am.

I beg you to put yourselves under leaders like these, and under anyone who cooperates with you, and labors hard.
