acv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the message of the cross is of course, foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is a power of God.
acv@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will frustrate the understanding of those of understanding.
acv@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where is a wise man? Where is a scholar? Where is a researcher of this age? Did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world?
acv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since in the wisdom of God the world did not know God through its wisdom, it pleased God through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
acv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we proclaim Christ crucified, truly to Jews a stumbling-block and to Gentiles foolishness.
acv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to them, to the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
acv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.
acv@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For notice your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many eminent.
acv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God chose the foolish things of the world, so that he might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world, so that he might humiliate the powerful.
acv@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And God chose the common things of the world, and the disdained things, and the things that are not, so that he might make useless the things that are,
acv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But ye are his, in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
acv@1Corinthians:10:1 @ But I want you not to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
acv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and they all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them. And the rock was the Christ.
acv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ However with most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness.
acv@1Corinthians:10:6 @ But these things became our examples, for us not to be men who lust for evil things as those also lusted.
acv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Neither become ye idolaters as some of them, as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to revel.
acv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor should we fornicate as some of them fornicated, and three thousand fell in one day.
acv@1Corinthians:10:9 @ Nor should we challenge the Christ as some of them also challenged, and were destroyed by the serpents.
acv@1Corinthians:10:10 @ And ye should not grumble as some of them grumbled, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
acv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to those men for examples, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the ends of the ages came.
acv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has taken you except is common to man. But God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted above what ye are able, but with the temptation will also make the way to escape, to enable you to endure.
acv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of the blessing that we bless, is it not a participation of the blood of the Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation of the body of the Christ?
acv@1Corinthians:10:17 @ Because we, the many, are one bread, one body, for we are all partakers of the one bread.
acv@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Look at Israel according to flesh. Those who eat the sacrifices, are they not partakers of the altar?
acv@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What therefore do I say, that an idol is anything, or that a sacrifice to an idol is anything?
acv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ Rather, that which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to become partakers of demons.
acv@1Corinthians:10:21 @ Ye cannot drink the cup of Lord, and the cup of demons. Ye cannot be partakers of a table of Lord, and of a table of demons.
acv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are permitted for me, but not all things are expedient. All things are permitted for me, but not all things are constructive.
acv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat everything being sold in a meat market, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience,
acv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those unbelievers invites you, and ye want to go, eat everything being set before you, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience.
acv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if any man say to you, This is a sacrifice to an idol, do not eat for the sake of that man who informed, and the conscience, for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.
acv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ And I say conscience, not the one of himself, but the one of the other man. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
acv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I also strive to please in all things for all men, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, so that they may be saved.
acv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brothers, that ye remember me in all things and keep the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.
acv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ, and the head of a woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
acv@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man praying or prophesying having something upon his head dishonors his head.
acv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for it is one and the same thing as the woman who has been shaven.
acv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also shear herself. But if it is an ugly thing for a woman to shear herself or be shaven, she should be covered.
acv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, being an image and glory of God, but woman is a glory of man.
acv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ Because of this the woman ought to have authority over her head, because of the heavenly agents.
acv@1Corinthians:11:11 @ Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For just as the woman is from the man, so also the man is through the woman. But all things are from God.
acv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Or does not nature itself teach you that if a man actually wears long hair it is a disgrace to him?
acv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman wears long hair, it is a glory to her, because her hair has been given for a cloak.
acv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if any man appears to be a lover of strife, we have no such custom, nor the congregations of God.
acv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in this that is commanded, I do not praise you, because ye do not assemble for the better but for the worse.
acv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For indeed first, when ye come together in a congregation, I hear divisions are present among you, and I partly believe it.
acv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be factions among you, so that the genuine may become apparent among you.
acv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When therefore ye come together in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.
acv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ For have ye no houses to eat and to drink in? Or do ye disparage the church of God, and humiliate those not having? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise you.
acv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread,
acv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and having expressed thanks, he broke in pieces, and said, Take ye, eat, this is my body broken for you. This do ye for my memorial.
acv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ Likewise also the cup after the supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood. This do, as often as ye drink it, for my memorial.
acv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup, ye proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
acv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore whoever may eat this bread or drink the cup of the Lord unworthily of the Lord, will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ But let a man examine himself, and let him so eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.
acv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he who eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks condemnation to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged by Lord, we are chastened so that we may not be condemned with the world.
acv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ And if any man is hungry, let him eat at home so that ye may not come together for condemnation. And the rest I will set in order as soon as I come.
acv@1Corinthians:12:2 @ Ye know that, while Gentiles, ye were being carried away to the voiceless idols, as ye were led.
acv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God says, Jesus is accursed, and no man can say, Jesus is Lord, except by Holy Spirit.
acv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are varieties of functions, but it is the same God who works all in all.
acv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each man toward that which is beneficial.
acv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For to one, the word of wisdom is given through the Spirit, and to another, the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit,
acv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to a different man, faith by the same Spirit, and to another, gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
acv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ and to another, workings of miracles, and to another, prophecy, and to another, discerning of spirits, and to a different man, kinds of tongues, and to another, the interpretation of tongues.
acv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But the one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each man individually as it wills.
acv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For just as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ.
acv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For also by one Spirit we are all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or freemen, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit.
acv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.
acv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.
acv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
acv@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee, nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
acv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety,
acv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ whereas our presentable parts have no need. Instead, God united the body together, having given more abundant worth to the part that lacks,
acv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other.
acv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one part suffers, all the parts suffer together, or one part is honored, all the parts rejoice together.
acv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And in the church God has placed men who are first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, kinds of tongues.
acv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak with the tongues of men and of heavenly agents, but have not love, I have become sounding brass, or a clashing cymbal.
acv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.
acv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And if I dole out all things possessed by me, and if I deliver my body so that I may be burned, and have not love, I benefit nothing.
acv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love is patient and is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not brag, and is not puffed up.
acv@1Corinthians:13:5 @ It does not behave improperly, does not seek the things of itself, is not made sharp, does not contemplate evil,
acv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether prophecies, they will be abolished, whether tongues, they will cease, whether knowledge, it will be abolished.
acv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I reasoned as a child, but when I became a man, I abolished the childish things.
acv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see by polished metal, in dimness, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know just as also I was known.
acv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Pursue love, and be zealous for the spiritual things, but more that ye may prophesy.
acv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men, but to God, for no man hears, but in spirit he speaks mysteries.
acv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue builds himself up, but he who prophesies builds up the congregation.
acv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but more that ye may prophesy. For greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the congregation may receive edification.
acv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I benefit you, unless I would speak to you either in a revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in doctrine?
acv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Likewise lifeless things that give a sound, whether flute or harp, if they give no distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is being piped or harped?
acv@1Corinthians:14:8 @ For also if a trumpet gives an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for battle?
acv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So also ye, unless ye give understandable speech by the tongue, how will that which is spoken be known? For ye will be talking into the air.
acv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ Since there are perhaps, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without significance.
acv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ If therefore I know not the force of the voice, I will be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me.
acv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So also ye, since ye are zealots of spirits, seek so that ye may excel for the edification of the church.
acv@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What is it therefore? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the intellect also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the intellect also.
acv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise if thou would bless with the spirit, how will the man who fills the place of the unlearned, say the Truly at thy thanksgiving, since he knows not what thou say?
acv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ Yet in an assembly I would rather speak five words with my intellect, so that I might also make others understand, than countless words in a tongue.
acv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brothers, become not children in your thoughts. Instead be childlike in wickedness, but in your thoughts become mature.
acv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, In other tongues and in other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear me, says Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving. But prophesying is not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.
acv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If therefore the whole congregation comes together in the same place, and all speak in tongues, and unlearned or unbelieving men come in, will they not say that ye are mad?
acv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and some unbelieving or unlearned man comes in, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all.
acv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And so the secrets of his heart are made manifest. And so having fallen down on his face he will worship God, declaring that God is really among you.
acv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What is it therefore, brothers? When ye come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.
acv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any man speaks in a tongue, be according to two, or at the most three, and in succession. And let one interpret.
acv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silence in an assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.
acv@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For ye can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn, and all may be encouraged.
acv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ As in all the churches of the sanctified, let the women keep silent in the churches. For it is not permitted for them to speak, but to be subordinate, as the law also says.
acv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they want to learn anything, let them question their own husbands at home, for it is an ugly thing for women to speak in an assembly.
acv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any man presumes to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge what I write to you, that they are commandments of Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore brothers, be zealous for prophesying, and do not forbid to speak in tongues.
acv@1Corinthians:15:1 @ And, brothers, I make known to you the good-news that I preached to you, which also ye received, and in which ye stand,
acv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which also ye are saved if ye hold firm that word I preached to you, unless ye believed in vain.
acv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you at first what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures,
acv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ and that he was buried, and that he arose on the third day according to the scriptures,
acv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some also slept.
acv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
acv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am. And his grace for me did not become empty, but I labored more abundantly than them all, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.
acv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is proclaimed that he has risen from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
acv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is empty, and your faith is also empty.
acv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ And also we are found FALSE witnesses of God, because we witnessed according to God that he raised up the Christ, whom he did not raise up, if therefore the dead are really not raised.
acv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If we are men who have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men more miserable.
acv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
acv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since death is because of a man, the resurrection of the dead is also because of a man.
acv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in his own order. Christ the first fruit, then those of Christ at his coming.
acv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Afterwards the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he will abolishes all rule, and all authority and power.
acv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For he subordinated all things under his feet. But when he says that all things have been subordinated, it is clear that he who subordinated all things under him, is excepted.
acv@1Corinthians:15:28 @ And when all things are made subordinate to him, then the Son himself will also be made subordinate to him who subordinated all things to him, so that God may be all in all.
acv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why then are they immersed for the dead?
acv@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If in respect to men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what is the benefit to me if the dead are not raised? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
acv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Sober up rightly, and do not sin, for some have ignorance of God. I speak shame about you.
acv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some man will say, How are the dead raised, and with what kind of body do they come?
acv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what thou sow, thou do not sow the body that it will become, but a bare grain, if it may happen of wheat, or of some other kind.
acv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but one of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds,
acv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ and heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies (but the glory of the heavenly is different, and the glory of the earthly is different),
acv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ another glory is of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.
acv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability.
acv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
acv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
acv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit.
acv@1Corinthians:15:48 @ As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly.
acv@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly.
acv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability.
acv@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will actually not all sleep, but we will all be transformed,
acv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For it will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be transformed.
acv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.
acv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brothers, become ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not empty in Lord.
acv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the collection for the sanctified, as I arranged for the congregations of Galatia, so also do ye.
acv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ Upon the first day of the week let each of you set something aside near himself, storing up whatever he may prosper, so that when I come no collections may be made then.
acv@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I arrive, whomever ye may approve by letters, I will send these men to bring your gift to Jerusalem.
acv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ But I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia, for I do pass through Macedonia.
acv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will remain with you, or I will even spend winter, so that ye may set me on my way wherever I go.
acv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now in passing, but I hope to remain some time with you, if the Lord allows.
acv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effective door has opened to me, and yet there are many who are hostile.
acv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ But if Timothy comes, see that he becomes without fear with you, for he works the work of Lord, as I also.
acv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Let not any man therefore disparage him, but send him forth in peace, so that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brothers.
acv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ And about Apollos the brother, I urged him much that he would come to you with the brothers, and it was not at all his will that he should come now, but he will come when he has opportunity.
acv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ Now I beseech you, brothers (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruit of Achaia, and that they committed themselves to service for the sanctified),
acv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because these men filled your lack.
acv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The congregations of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in Lord, with the congregation associated with their house.
