'Seem' in the Bible

For the natural man is not able to take in the things of the Spirit of God: for they seem foolish to him, and he is not able to have knowledge of them, because such knowledge comes only through the Spirit.

Let no one deceive himself; if any one doth seem to be wise among you in this age -- let him become a fool, that he may become wise,

We are made to seem foolish for Christ, but you are wise in Christ; we are feeble, but you are strong; you have glory, but we have shame.

Now about things offered to images: we all seem to ourselves to have knowledge. Knowledge gives pride, but love gives true strength.

If we have been planting the things of the Spirit for you, does it seem a great thing for you to give us a part in your things of this world?

Be judges yourselves of the question: does it seem right for a woman to take part in prayer unveiled?

Does it not seem natural to you that if a man has long hair, it is a cause of shame to him?

But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

And to those parts of the body which seem to have less honour we give all the more honour; and to those parts of the body which are a cause of shame to us we give the greater respect;

But if I do not know the meaning of the language, I will [appear to] be a foreigner to the one who is speaking [since he knows exactly what he is saying], and the one who is speaking will [appear to] be a foreigner to me.
