4 I always thank my God for you(I) because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. 5 For in him you have been enriched(J) in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge(K)— 6 God thus confirming our testimony(L) about Christ among you. 7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift(M) as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to b...
10 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,[a](T) in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you,(U) but that you be perfectly united(V) in mind and thought. 11 My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe’s household(W) have informed me that there are quarrels among y...
18 For the message of the cross is foolishness(AH) to those who are perishing,(AI) but to us who are being saved(AJ) it is the power of God.(AK) 19 For it is written: 20 Where is the wise person?(AM) Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age?(AN) Has not God made foolish(AO) the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the w...
6 We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature,(BU) but not the wisdom of this age(BV) or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.(BW) 7 No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery(BX) that has been hidden(BY) and that God destined for our glory before time began. 8 None of the rulers of this age(BZ) understood it, for if they...
3 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit(CO) but as people who are still worldly(CP)—mere infants(CQ) in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food,(CR) for you were not yet ready for it.(CS) Indeed, you are still not ready. 3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling(CT) among you, are...
4 This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants(DX) of Christ and as those entrusted(DY) with the mysteries(DZ) God has revealed. 2 Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. 3 I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. 4 My conscience(EA) is clear...

5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife.(FL) 2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning(FM) and have put out of your fellowship(FN) the man who has been doing this? 3 For my part, even though I am not physical...
6 If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people?(GG) 2 Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world?(GH) And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more ...
12 “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial.(GX) “I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything. 13 You say, “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will destroy them both.”(GY) The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality but for the Lord,(GZ) and the Lord for th...
Aug 23, 2024 · In 1 Corinthians 7:17, Paul encourages the believers to remain in the calling they were in when they became followers of Christ, affirming that God has called each of us to live in a particular way. In Ephesians 4:1, Paul urges us to live a life worthy of the calling we have received.
