Paul, called {cf15i to be} an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, |
2
|
unto the church of God which is at Corinth, {cf15i even} them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called {cf15i to be} saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their {cf15i Lord} and ours: |
3
|
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
4
|
I thank my God always concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus; |
5
|
that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all utterance and all knowledge; |
6
|
even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: |
7
|
so that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ; |
8
|
who shall also confirm you unto the end, {cf15i that ye be} unreproveable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
9
|
God is faithful, through whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. |
10
|
Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and {cf15i that} there be no divisions among you; but {cf15i that} ye be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment. |
11
|
For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them {cf15i which are of the household} of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. |
12
|
Now this I mean, that each one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. |
13
|
Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul? |
14
|
I thank God that I baptized none of you, save Crispus and Gaius; |
15
|
lest any man should say that ye were baptized into my name. |
16
|
And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. |
17
|
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void. |
18
|
For the word of the cross is to them that are perishing foolishness; but unto us which are being saved it is the power of God. |
19
|
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the prudence of the prudent will I reject. |
20
|
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? |
21
|
For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom knew not God, it was God-s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save them that believe. |
22
|
Seeing that Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom: |
23
|
but we preach Christ crucified, unto Jews a stumblingblock, and unto Gentiles foolishness; |
24
|
but unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. |
25
|
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. |
26
|
For behold your calling, brethren, how that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, {cf15i are called}: |
27
|
but God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong; |
28
|
and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, {cf15i yea} and the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are: |
29
|
that no flesh should glory before God. |
30
|
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption: |
31
|
that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. |
