while our testimony about the Messiah has been confirmed among you.

so that there is no spiritual gift in which you consciously come short, while you are waiting for the unveiling of our Lord Jesus Christ,

while the Jews require signs, and the Greeks seek wisdom:

while we proclaim a Christ who has been crucified--to the Jews a stumbling-block, to Gentiles foolishness,

for I determined, while among you, to be unconscious of everything but Jesus Christ and Him as crucified.

And I did not use persuasive words of [human] wisdom in my message and preaching, but they were [accompanied by] a demonstration of the Holy Spirit and power [from God]. [Note: This "demonstration" could have included the evidence of miraculous spiritual gifts which Paul utilized while there in Corinth. See 14:18].

But the spiritual man discerneth all things, while he himself is discerned by no man.

You are not able even now, for you are still unspiritual. While there is among you jealousy and strife, are you not still unspiritual, and behaving like worldlings?

For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

I planted, Apollos watered, but God [all the while] was causing the growth.

For while my conscience does not trouble me at all, that does not prove that I am innocent. It is the Lord who must examine me.

we are made fools for our attachment to Christ, while you, who are christians too, still pass for the wise: we are in poverty, but you are in power: you meet with esteem, but we find contempt.

What have I to do with the judging of outsiders? Must not you judge those who are within the church, while God judges outsiders?

while you leave to God's judgement those who are outside? Remove the wicked man from among you.

While a man who is united with the Lord is one with Him in spirit?

You must not refuse each other what is due, unless you agree to do so for a while, to devote yourselves to prayer, and then to come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you through your lack of self-control.

Was anyone already circumcised when he was called? He should not undo his circumcision. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? He should not get circumcised.

Were you called while a slave? It should not be a concern to you. But if you can become free, by all means take the opportunity.

For the one who is called in the Lord [while] a slave is the Lord's freedperson. Likewise the one who is called [while] free is a slave of Christ.

While the married man is anxious about worldly matters, desiring to please his wife;

And so his interests are divided. Again, the unmarried woman, whether she is old or young, is anxious about the Master's Cause, striving to be pure both in body and in spirit, while the married woman is anxious about worldly matters, desiring to please her husband.

Now in regard to food which has been offered to idols, we are sure of course that "we all have knowledge." But knowledge puffs up, while love builds up.

Still, it is not every one that has this knowledge. Some people, because of their association with idols, continued down to the present time, eat the food as food offered to an idol; and their consciences, while still weak, are dulled.

In this way, by sinning against your Brothers and injuring their consciences, while still weak, you sin against Christ.

Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

For it is written in the law of Moses, Do not muzzle an ox while it treads out grain. Is God really concerned with oxen?

What then is my reward? That, while preaching the good-news, I may make the good-news of the Christ without charge, in order not to make full use of my right in the good-news.

Every athlete practises self-restraint all round; but while they do it to win a fading wreath, we do it for an unfading.

For I would have you know this, my brothers, that while our fathers all lived under the cloud, all crossed through the sea,

But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, while a woman's head is her husband, and Christ's head is God.

Every man who prays or prophesies [while] having [something] on [his] head dishonors his head,

But every woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for she is one and the same as the woman whose head is shaved.

For a man ought not to wear anything on his head, for he is the image of God and reflects his glory; while woman is the reflection of man's glory.

for just as the woman was made from the man, so also is the man born of the woman, while they both come from God.

Does not nature herself teach us that, while for a man to wear his hair long is degrading to him,

But while I am on this subject, I cannot approve of your meetings, because they are doing you more harm than good.

For at the meal, each one eats his own supper ahead of others. So one person is hungry while another gets drunk!

What! Do you not have houses in which to eat and drink? Or do you show contempt for the church of God and humiliate those [impoverished believers] who have nothing? What will I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? In this I will not praise you!

For I received from the Lord Himself that [instruction] which I passed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which He was betrayed took bread;

Because of this [i.e., their improper partaking of the Supper], many people among you are weak and ill, and a number have fallen asleep [i.e., died]. [Note: While most commentators view this judgment as physical, there is a distinct possibility that it refers to spiritual sickness and death].

Now, while we are being judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so we won't be condemned along with the world.

Ye know that, while Gentiles, ye were being carried away to the voiceless idols, as ye were led.

and those which we deem less honorable we clothe with more abundant honor; and so our ungraceful parts come to have a more abundant grace, while our graceful parts have everything they need.

while our well-shaped parts do not want for anything. Yes, God has perfectly adjusted the body, giving great honor to its apparently inferior parts,

You must pursue love, while you are cultivating the spiritual endowments, and especially inspired preaching.

He who, when speaking, uses the gift of 'tongues' builds up his own faith, while he who preaches builds up the faith of the Church.

Brethren! do not become children, in your understandings; but, in baseness, become babes, while, in your understandings, ye become, full-grown.

So speaking in ecstasy is meant as a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers, while prophecy is meant, not for unbelievers but for believers.

While, if all those present use the gift of preaching, and an unbeliever, or a man without the gift, comes in, he is convinced of his sinfulness by them all, he is called to account by them all;

And let two or three who are inspired to preach speak, while the rest weigh what is said;

If we have placed our hope in Christ while in this life only, we are to be pitied more than all [other] people.

There are also heavenly bodies [sun, moon and stars] and earthly bodies [humans, animals, and plants], but the glory and beauty of the heavenly is one kind, and the glory of the earthly is another.

And if it is worth while for me to go too, they will accompany me.

With you peradventure I will abide a while: or else winter, that ye may bring me on my way whithersoever I go.

For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

If Timothy comes, see to it that he does not have anything to be afraid of while he is with you, for he is doing the Lord's work as I am.
