And these things, brethren, I have, in figure, applied to my self and Apollos, for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think more of teachers than what has been written; and that no one of you be vain of one to the injury of another.

I do not write these things that I may make you ashamed; but as my beloved children I admonish you.

Do I speak these things as a man? Or does not the law, also, say the same?

But I have availed myself of none of these things; nor do I write these things that it should be so done to me. For it would be better for me to die, than that any one should make my boasting vain.

Now these things took place as examples for us, that we should not desire evil things, as they, also, desired.

Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they are written for the instruction of us, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

But all these, the one and the same Spirit makes effectual, distributing to each, respectively, as he wills.

And those members of the body, which, we think, are less honorable, around these we place the more abundant honor; and our uncomely members have the more abundant comeliness:

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the great est of these is love.
