Now I have applied these things, brothers, to myself and Apollos for your sake, in order that in us you may learn not [to go] beyond what is written, lest someone be inflated with pride on behalf of one [person] against the other.

Therefore, if you have courts with regard to ordinary matters, do you seat these despised [people] in the church?

And some of you were these [things], but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

I am not saying these [things] according to a human perspective. Or does the law not also say these [things]?

But in all these [things] one and the same Spirit is at work, distributing to each one individually just as he wishes.

and [the parts] of the body which we think to be less honorable, these we clothe with more abundant honor, and our unpresentable [parts] come to have more abundant presentability,

And now these three [things] remain: faith, hope, [and] love. But the greatest of these [is] love.

Now I rejoice over the arrival of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because these make up for your absence,
