1Co 7:7 - I wish that all of you were as I am. But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.

1Co 7:8 - Now to the unmarried[fn] and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:9

1Co 7:9 - But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:10

1Co 7:10 - To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:11

1Co 7:11 - But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:12

1Co 7:12 - To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:14

1Co 7:14 - For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:15

1Co 7:15 - But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:25

1Co 7:25 - Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:28

1Co 7:28 - But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:32

1Co 7:32 - I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs—how he can please the Lord.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:33

1Co 7:33 - But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife—

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:34

1Co 7:34 - and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord's affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:35

1Co 7:35 - I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:37

1Co 7:37 - But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin—this man also does the right thing.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:38

1Co 7:38 - So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does better.[fn]

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 7:39

1Co 7:39 - A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord.

1Co 7:40 - In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is—and I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 8:1

1Co 8:1 - Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 8:7

1Co 8:7 - But not everyone possesses this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 8:8

1Co 8:8 - But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 8:9

1Co 8:9 - Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 8:12

1Co 8:12 - When you sin against them in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 9:15

1Co 9:15 - But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this in the hope that you will do such things for me, for I would rather die than allow anyone to deprive me of this boast.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 9:17

1Co 9:17 - If I preach voluntarily, I have a reward; if not voluntarily, I am simply discharging the trust committed to me.

1Co 9:23 - I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 9:24

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 9:25

1Co 9:25 - Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 10:1

1Co 10:1 - For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.

1Co 10:4 - and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 10:13

1Co 10:13 - No temptation[fn] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[fn] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[fn] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 10:20

1Co 10:20 - No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God, and I do not want you to be participants with demons.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 10:29

1Co 10:29 - I am referring to the other person's conscience, not yours. For why is my freedom being judged by another's conscience?

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 10:30

1Co 10:30 - If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for?

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:2

1Co 11:2 - I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the traditions just as I passed them on to you.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:3

1Co 11:3 - But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man,[fn] and the head of Christ is God.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:5

1Co 11:5 - But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:6

1Co 11:6 - For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:7

1Co 11:7 - A man ought not to cover his head,[fn] since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:12

1Co 11:12 - For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:15

1Co 11:15 - but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.

1Co 11:17 - In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:21

1Co 11:21 - for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers. As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:28

1Co 11:28 - Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:32

1Co 11:32 - Nevertheless, when we are judged in this way by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be finally condemned with the world.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 11:34

1Co 11:34 - Anyone who is hungry should eat something at home, so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment. And when I come I will give further directions.

1Co 12:8 - To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:9

1Co 12:9 - to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:10

1Co 12:10 - to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[fn] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[fn]

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:11

1Co 12:11 - All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:12

1Co 12:12 - Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:18

1Co 12:18 - But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:19

1Co 12:19 - If they were all one part, where would the body be?

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:20

1Co 12:20 - As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:21

1Co 12:21 - The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don't need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don't need you!”

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:24

1Co 12:24 - while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 12:31

1Co 12:31 - Now eagerly desire the greater gifts. And yet I will show you the most excellent way.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:1

1Co 13:1 - If I speak in the tongues[fn] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:2

1Co 13:2 - If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:3

1Co 13:3 - If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[fn] but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:6

1Co 13:6 - Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:8

1Co 13:8 - Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:10

1Co 13:10 - but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:12

1Co 13:12 - For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 13:13

1Co 13:13 - And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:1

1Co 14:1 - Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:2

1Co 14:2 - For anyone who speaks in a tongue[fn] does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:3

1Co 14:3 - But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:4

1Co 14:4 - Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:5

1Co 14:5 - I would like every one of you to speak in tongues,[fn] but I would rather have you prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues,[fn] unless someone interprets, so that the church may be edified.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:14

1Co 14:14 - For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

1Co 14:23 - So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and inquirers or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:28

1Co 14:28 - If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and to God.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:29

1Co 14:29 - Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 14:30

1Co 14:30 - And if a revelation comes to someone who is sitting down, the first speaker should stop.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:10

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:12

1Co 15:12 - But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:13

1Co 15:13 - If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:14

1Co 15:14 - And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:15

1Co 15:15 - More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:17

1Co 15:17 - And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:27

1Co 15:27 - For he “has put everything under his feet.”[fn] Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:28

1Co 15:28 - When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all.

Tools

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:35

1Co 15:35 - But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”

Unchecked Copy Box 1Co 15:38

1Co 15:38 - But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body.
