I have applied these things to myself and Apollos because of you, brothers and sisters, so that through us you may learn “not to go beyond what is written,” so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of the one against the other.

Some of you once lived this way. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

and all ate the same spiritual food,

No trial has overtaken you that is not faced by others. And God is faithful: He will not let you be tried beyond what you are able to bear, but with the trial will also provide a way out so that you may be able to endure it.

So then, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.

Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.

Now, brothers and sisters, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I help you unless I speak to you with a revelation or with knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

Furthermore, those who have fallen asleep in Christ have also perished.

The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

I always thank my God for you because of the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus.

For members of Chloe’s household have made it clear to me, my brothers and sisters, that there are quarrels among you.

Is Christ divided? Paul wasn’t crucified for you, was he? Or were you in fact baptized in the name of Paul?

Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast affects the whole batch of dough?

But God will judge those outside. Remove the evil person from among you.

So if you have ordinary lawsuits, do you appoint as judges those who have no standing in the church?

So by your knowledge the weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed.

If we sowed spiritual blessings among you, is it too much to reap material things from you?

For in the first place, when you come together as a church I hear there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you,” nor in turn can the head say to the foot, “I do not need you.”

I wish you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be strengthened.
