These things, my brethren, I have by a figure transferred to myself, and Apollos, for your sakes, that ye may learn in us not to be wise above what is written, that ye may not be puffed up for one against another.

I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I admonish you:

God forbid! What! know ye not that he who is joined to an harlot is one body with her? for these two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

Do I speak these things as a man only?

But I have availed myself of none of these things. Nor have I written these things, that it might be so done as to me: for it were better for me to die, than that any one should make this my glorying void.

Now these things were examples for us, that we might not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

Now all these things happened to them as examples: and are written for our admonition, on whom the last ages are come.

but all these worketh that one and the same Spirit distributing to every one in particular as He sees fit.

And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three graces; but the greatest of these is love.
