For whereas the Jews demand signs, and the Greeks seek wisdom, We preach Christ crucified,

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

which God ordained before the world for our glory;

Which none of the rulers of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor hath ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things 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, but the spirit of a man which is in him? So the things of God also knoweth no one, but the Spirit of God.

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

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

For we are fellow-labourers of God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

For other foundation can no man lay, than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ: And if any one build on this foundation, gold, silver, costly stones;

for the day shall declare it: for it is revealed by fire; yea the fire shall try every one's work, of what sort it is.

If any man destroy the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

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

Therefore let none glory in men; for all things are yours:

For I am not conscious to myself of any thing, yet am I not hereby justified; but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

These things, brethren, I have by a figure transferred to myself and Apollos, for your sakes; that ye may learn in us, not to think of men above what is here written, that ye may not be puffed up for one above another.
