In any case, in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.

Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

That is why many of you are weak and sick, and quite a few are dead.<n id="1" />

There are probably many kinds of languages in the world, and none is without meaning.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Stay alert, stand firm in the faith, show courage, be strong.

All the brothers and sisters<n id="1" /> send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.p>

<p class="bodytext">My love be with all of you in Christ Jesus.<n id="1" />p>

Some of you once lived this way.<n id="1" /> But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ<n id="2" /> and by the Spirit of our God.p>

For the unbelieving husband is sanctified because of the wife, and the unbelieving wife because of her husband.<n id="1" /> Otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.

But if the unbeliever wants a divorce, let it take place. In these circumstances the brother or sister is not bound.<n id="1" /> God has called you in peace.

But the man who is firm in his commitment, and is under no necessity but has control over his will, and has decided in his own mind to keep his own virgin, does well.

So I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, &#8220;Jesus is cursed,&#8221; and no one can say, &#8220;Jesus is Lord,&#8221; except by the Holy Spirit.p>

So then, dear brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> be firm. Do not be moved! Always be outstanding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">I always thank my God for you because of the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus.

so that you do not lack any spiritual gift as you wait for the revelation<n id="1" /> of our Lord Jesus Christ.

He<n id="1" /> will also strengthen you to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For members of Chloe&#8217;s household have made it clear to me, my brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> that there are quarrels<n id="2" /> among you.

For I decided to be concerned about nothing<n id="1" /> among you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

<t /><p class="bodytext">So, brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but instead as people of the flesh,<n id="2" /> as infants in Christ.

for you are still influenced by the flesh.<n id="1" /> For since there is still jealousy and dissension among you, are you not influenced by the flesh and behaving like unregenerate people?<n id="2" />
