Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul?

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.

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.

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the prudence of the prudent will I reject.

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.

Seeing that Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom:

For behold your calling, brethren, how that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:

For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

which none of the rulers of this world knoweth: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory:

but as it is written, Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not, And [which] entered not into the heart of man, Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.

But unto us God revealed [them] through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God.

Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able [to bear it]: nay, not even now are ye able;

for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk after the manner of men?

For when one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not men?

For we are God’s fellow–workers: ye are God’s husbandry, God’s building.

For other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

each man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man’s work of what sort it is.
