I am not writing these things to shame you, but to correct you as my dear children.

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

Do you not know that we will judge angels? Why not ordinary matters!

Because of the impending crisis I think it best for you to remain as you are.

But a married man is concerned about the things of the world, how to please his wife,

If someone thinks he knows something, he does not yet know to the degree that he needs to know.

For this reason a woman should have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

Now when you come together at the same place, you are not really eating the Lord’s Supper.

Two or three prophets should speak and the others should evaluate what is said.

And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is futile and your faith is empty.

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is useless; you are still in your sins.

I was glad about the arrival of Stephanus, Fortunatus, and Achaicus because they have supplied the fellowship with you that I lacked.

But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who calls himself a Christian who is sexually immoral, or greedy, or an idolater, or verbally abusive, or a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.

and he is divided. An unmarried woman or a virgin is concerned about the things of the Lord, to be holy both in body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the things of the world, how to please her husband.

Where is the wise man? Where is the expert in the Mosaic law? Where is the debater of this age? Has God not made the wisdom of the world foolish?

But God chose what the world thinks foolish to shame the wise, and God chose what the world thinks weak to shame the strong.

Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin a person commits is outside of the body” – but the immoral person sins against his own body.

Was anyone called after he had been circumcised? He should not try to undo his circumcision. Was anyone called who is uncircumcised? He should not get circumcised.

Were you called as a slave? Do not worry about it. But if indeed you are able to be free, make the most of the opportunity.

But in my opinion, she will be happier if she remains as she is – and I think that I too have the Spirit of God!
