Seeker Overlay ON
*
God is faithful ,
by whom ye were called (
5681 )
unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord .
*
Now I beseech (
5719 )
you ,
brethren ,
by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
that ye all speak (
5725 )
the same thing ,
and that there be (
5753 )
no divisions among you ;
but that ye be (
5753 )
perfectly joined together (
5772 )
in the same mind and in the same judgment .
*
For it hath been declared (
5681 )
unto me of you ,
my brethren ,
by them which are of the house of Chloe ,
that there are (
5748 )
contentions among you .
*
Now this I say (
5719 ),
that every one of you saith (
5719 ),
I am (
5748 )
of Paul ;
and I of Apollos ;
and I of Cephas ;
and I of Christ .
*
Is Christ divided (
5769 )?
was Paul crucified (
5681 )
for you ?
or were ye baptized (
5681 )
in the name of Paul ?
*
I thank (
5719 )
God that I baptized (
5656 )
none of you ,
but Crispus and Gaius ;
*
Lest any should say (
5632 )
that I had baptized (
5656 )
in mine own name .
*
And I baptized (
5656 )
also the household of Stephanas :
besides ,
I know (
5758 )
not whether I baptized (
5656 )
any other .
*
For Christ sent (
5656 )
me not to baptize (
5721 ),
but to preach the gospel (
5733 ):
not with wisdom of words ,
lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect (
5686 ).
*
For the preaching of the cross is (
5748 )
to them that perish (
5730 )
foolishness ;
but unto us which are saved (
5746 )
it is (
5748 )
the power of God .
*
For it is written (
5769 ),
I will destroy (
5692 )
the wisdom of the wise ,
and will bring to nothing (
5692 )
the understanding of the prudent .
*
Where is the wise ?
where is the scribe ?
where is the disputer of this world ?
hath not God made foolish (
5656 )
the wisdom of this world ?
*
For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew (
5627 )
not God ,
it pleased (
5656 )
God by the foolishness of preaching to save (
5658 )
them that believe (
5723 ).
*
For the Jews require (
5719 )
a sign ,
and the Greeks seek (
5719 )
after wisdom :
*
But we preach (
5719 )
Christ crucified (
5772 ),
unto the Jews a stumblingblock ,
and unto the Greeks foolishness ;
*
But unto them which are called ,
both Jews and Greeks ,
Christ the power of God ,
and the wisdom of God .
*
Because the foolishness of God is (
5748 )
wiser than men ;
and the weakness of God is (
5748 )
stronger than men .
*
For ye see (
5719 )
your calling ,
brethren ,
how that not many wise men after the flesh ,
not many mighty ,
not many noble ,
are called :
