But as it is written, "Things which an eye didn't see, and an ear didn't hear, which didn't enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him."

Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another.

I don't write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

Do I speak these things according to the ways of men? Or doesn't the law also say the same thing?

But I have used none of these things, and I don't write these things that it may be done so in my case; for I would rather die, than that anyone should make my boasting void.

Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

But now faith, hope, and love remain -- these three. The greatest of these is love.
