'One' in the Bible

For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.

So then, as the effect of one act of wrongdoing was that punishment came on all men, even so the effect of one act of righteousness was righteousness of life for all men.

Because, as numbers of men became sinners through the wrongdoing of one man, even so will great numbers get righteousness through the keeping of the word of God by one man.

So if, while the husband is living, she is joined to another man, she will get the name of one who is untrue to her husband: but if the husband is dead, she is free from the law, so that she is not untrue, even if she takes another man.

You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God is in you. But if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is not one of his.

Or has not the potter the right to make out of one part of his earth a vessel for honour, and out of another a vessel for shame?

So I say, Has God put his people on one side? Let there be no such thought. For I am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

And so all Israel will get salvation: as it is said in the holy Writings, There will come out of Zion the One who makes free; by him wrongdoing will be taken away from Jacob:

O how deep is the wealth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! no one is able to make discovery of his decisions, and his ways may not be searched out.

But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith.

For, as we have a number of parts in one body, but all the parts have not the same use,

So we, though we are a number of persons, are one body in Christ, and are dependent on one another;

Be kind to one another with a brother's love, putting others before yourselves in honour;

Be in harmony with one another. Do not have a high opinion of yourselves, but be in agreement with common people. Do not give yourselves an air of wisdom.

But if one who has hate for you is in need of food or of drink, give it to him, for in so doing you will put coals of fire on his head.

Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law.

Do not put on one side him who is feeble in faith, and do not put him in doubt by your reasonings.

One man has faith to take all things as food: another who is feeble in faith takes only green food.

This man puts one day before another: to that man they are the same. Let every man be certain in his mind.

So every one of us will have to give an account of himself to God.

Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.

So then, let us go after the things which make peace, and the things by which we may be a help to one another.

Let every one of us give pleasure to his neighbour for his good, to make him strong.

Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:

So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

So then, take one another to your hearts, as Christ took us, to the glory of God.

And I myself am certain of you, brothers, that you are full of what is good, complete in all knowledge, able to give direction to one another.

That you will take her in kindly, after the way of the saints, as one who is the Lord's, and give her help in anything in which she may have need of you: because she has been a help to a great number and to myself.

Give my love to Rufus, one of the Lord's selection, and to his mother and mine.

Give one another a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send their love to you.

I give praise to God that not one of you had baptism from me, but Crispus and Gaius;

So that no one may be able to say that you had baptism in my name.

As it says in the holy Writings, I will put an end to the wisdom of the wise, and will put on one side the designs of those who have knowledge.

Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross:

For who has knowledge of the things of a man but the spirit of the man which is in him? in the same way, no one has knowledge of the things of God but the Spirit of God.

But he who has the Spirit, though judging all things, is himself judged by no one.

For when one says, I am of Paul; and another says, I am of Apollos; are you not talking like natural men?

So let no one take pride in men. For all things are yours;

My brothers, it is because of you that I have taken Apollos and myself as examples of these things, so that in us you might see that it is not wise to go farther than what is in the holy Writings, so that no one of you may be lifted up against his brother.

When evil things are said about us we give gentle answers: we are made as the unclean things of the world, as that for which no one has any use, even till now.

For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.

It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.

But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.

How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?

I say this to put you to shame. Is there not among you one wise man who may be able to give a decision between his brothers?

More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?

Have you not knowledge that evil-doers will have no part in the kingdom of God? Have no false ideas about this: no one who goes after the desires of the flesh, or gives worship to images, or is untrue when married, or is less than a man, or makes a wrong use of men,

Or do you not see that he who is joined to a loose woman is one body with her? for God has said, The two of them will become one flesh.

But he who is united to the Lord is one spirit.

Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.

It is my desire that all men might be even as I am. But every man has the power of his special way of life given him by God, one in this way and one in that.

But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.

Now about virgins I have no orders from the Lord: but I give my opinion as one to whom the Lord has given mercy to be true to him.

So, then, as to the question of taking food offered to images, we are certain that an image is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

There is for us only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we are for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we have our being through him.

If to others I am not an Apostle, at least I am one to you: for the fact that you are Christians is the sign that I am an Apostle.

To those without the law I was as one without the law, not as being without law to God, but as under law to Christ, so that I might give the good news to those without the law.

To the feeble, I was as one who is feeble, so that they might have salvation: I have been all things to all men, so that some at least might have salvation.

Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So let your minds be fixed on the reward.

So then I am running, not uncertainly; so I am fighting, not as one who gives blows in the air:

Again, let us not give way to the desires of the flesh, as some of them did, of whom twenty-three thousand came to their end in one day.

Because we, being a number of persons, are one bread, we are one body: for we all take part in the one bread.

But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

For when you take your food, everyone takes his meal before the other; and one has not enough food, and another is the worse for drink.

So then, my brothers, when you come together to the holy meal of the Lord, let there be waiting for one another.

So it is my desire for you to be clear about this; that no one is able to say by the Spirit of God that Jesus is cursed; and no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.

For to one are given words of wisdom through the Spirit; and to another words of knowledge through the same Spirit:

To another faith in the same Spirit; and to another the power of taking away disease, by the one Spirit;

But all these are the operations of the one and the same Spirit, giving to every man separately as his pleasure is.

For as the body is one, and has a number of parts, and all the parts make one body, so is Christ.

For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit.

For the body is not one part, but a number of parts.

But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.

And if they were all one part, where would the body be?

But now they are all different parts, but one body.

So that there might be no division in the body; but all the parts might have the same care for one another.

And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.

Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.

For he who makes use of tongues is not talking to men but to God; because no one has the sense of what he is saying; but in the Spirit he is talking of secret things.

But if there is no one to give the sense, let him keep quiet in the church; and let his words be to himself and to God.

So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.

And last of all, as by one whose birth was out of the right time, he was seen by me.

Yes, truly, by your pride in me, my brothers in Christ Jesus our Lord, my life is one long death.

All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, and another of fishes.

And there are bodies of heaven and bodies of earth, but the glory of the one is different from that of the other.

There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for the glory of one star is different from that of another.

Those who are of the earth are like the man who was from the earth: and those who are of heaven are like the one from heaven.

And in the same way as we have taken on us the image of the man from the earth, so we will take on us the image of the one from heaven.

On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.

All the brothers send their love to you. Give one another a holy kiss.

To the one it is a perfume of death to death; to the other a perfume of life to life. And who is enough for such things?

For we all have to come before Christ to be judged; so that every one of us may get his reward for the things done in the body, good or bad.

For it is the love of Christ which is moving us; because we are of the opinion that if one was put to death for all, then all have undergone death;

Giving no cause for trouble in anything, so that no one may be able to say anything against our work;

And what agreement is there between Christ and the Evil One? or what part has one who has faith with one who has not?

For I have a very great care for you: because you have been married by me to one husband, and it is my desire to give you completely holy to Christ.

For if anyone comes preaching another Jesus from the one whose preachers we are, or if you have got a different spirit, or a different sort of good news from those which came to you, how well you put up with these things.

But what I do, that I will go on doing, so that I may give no chance to those who are looking for one; so that, in the cause of their pride, they may be seen to be the same as we are.

Five times the Jews gave me forty blows but one.

On account of such a one I will have glory: for myself I will take no glory, but only in my feeble body.
