And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellence of speech, or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom] which God ordained before the world to our glory:

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

But God hath revealed [them] to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, even the deep things of God.

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God.

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

I have planted, Apollos watered: but God hath given the increase.

So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth: but God that giveth the increase.

For we are laborers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building.

According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth upon it. But let every man take heed how he buildeth upon it.

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

If any man defileth the temple of God, him will God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord shall come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise from God.

For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men.

For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
