1Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,Select 1 Corinthians 1:1

2To the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours.Select 1 Corinthians 1:2

3Grace [be] to you, and peace from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.Select 1 Corinthians 1:3

4I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;Select 1 Corinthians 1:4

5That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;Select 1 Corinthians 1:5

6Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:Select 1 Corinthians 1:6

7So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:Select 1 Corinthians 1:7

8Who will also confirm you to the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.Select 1 Corinthians 1:8

9God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called to the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.Select 1 Corinthians 1:9

10Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgment.Select 1 Corinthians 1:10

11For it hath been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by them [who are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.Select 1 Corinthians 1:11

12Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.Select 1 Corinthians 1:12

13Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?Select 1 Corinthians 1:13

14I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;Select 1 Corinthians 1:14

15Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.Select 1 Corinthians 1:15

16And I baptized also the household of Stephanas; besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.Select 1 Corinthians 1:16

17For Christ hath not sent me to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.Select 1 Corinthians 1:17

18For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but to us who are saved, it is the power of God.Select 1 Corinthians 1:18

19For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.Select 1 Corinthians 1:19

20Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?Select 1 Corinthians 1:20

21For when in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.Select 1 Corinthians 1:21

22For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek wisdom:Select 1 Corinthians 1:22

23But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness;Select 1 Corinthians 1:23

24But to them who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.Select 1 Corinthians 1:24

25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.Select 1 Corinthians 1:25

26For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble [are called]:Select 1 Corinthians 1:26

27But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;Select 1 Corinthians 1:27

28And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are:Select 1 Corinthians 1:28

29That no flesh should glory in his presence.Select 1 Corinthians 1:29

30But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who from God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:Select 1 Corinthians 1:30

31That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.Select 1 Corinthians 1:31
