'Thing' in the Bible

the true character of each individual's work will become manifest. For the day of Christ will disclose it, because that day is soon to come upon us clothed in fire, and as for the quality of every one's work-- the fire is the thing which will test it.

For Apostolic authority is not a thing of words, but of power.

It is no good thing--this which you make the ground of your boasting. Do you not know that a little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough?

If it is we who sowed the spiritual grain in you, is it a great thing that we should reap a temporal harvest from you?

Do I mean that a thing sacrificed to an idol is what it claims to be, or that an idol is a real thing?

If, so far as I am concerned, I partake with a grateful heart, why am I to be found fault with in regard to a thing for which I give thanks?"

But while giving you these instructions, there is one thing I cannot praise--your meeting together, with bad rather than good results.

But if Christ is preached as having risen from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?

If there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead, then Christ Himself has not risen to life.

and if Christ has not risen, your faith is a vain thing--you are still in your sins.

There are bodies which are celestial and there are bodies which are earthly, but the glory of the celestial ones is one thing, and that of the earthly ones is another.
