|
| 1 Corinthians 1:4-6 | I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. For in him you have been enriched in every way--with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge God thus confirming our testimony about Christ among you. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:10 | I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:18 | For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:25 | For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:30 | It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 2:2 | For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 2:4-5 | My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God's power. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 | I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 3:11 | For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 4:2 | Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 4:4-5 | My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 5:6-7 | Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch--as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:7 | The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 | Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 7:17 | Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 7:23 | You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 8:2-3 | Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. But whoever loves God is known by God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 8:6 | yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 8:9 | Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 9:22-23 | To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some. I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 9:24 | Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 10:12 | So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 10:13 | No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 10:31 | So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 11:1 | Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 11:23-24 | For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 11:25-26 | In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me." For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 12:4-6 | There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 12:7 | Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 12:27 | Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:1 | If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 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. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:3 | If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 | Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:6-7 | Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:11 | When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:13 | And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:12 | So it is with you. Since you are eager for gifts of the Spirit, try to excel in those that build up the church. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:19 | But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:20 | Brothers and sisters, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:32-33 | The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets. For God is not a God of disorder but of peace--as in all the congregations of the Lord's people. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:39-40 | Therefore, my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues. But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 | For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:10 | But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:19 | If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:20-21 | But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:33 | Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:57 | But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:58 | Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 | Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 16:20 | All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 16:23-24 | The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 1:5 | For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 1:20 | For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 | Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 2:15-16 | For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task? |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 3:3 | You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 3:9-10 | If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 3:17 | Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 3:18 | And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:5-6 | For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory displayed in the face of Christ. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:7 | But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:16-17 | Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:18 | So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:7 | For we live by faith, not by sight. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:10 | For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 | For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:17 | Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 | We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 6:14 | Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 7:1 | Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 7:10 | Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 8:2-3 | In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability. Entirely on their own, |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 8:9 | For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 8:15 | as it is written: "The one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little." |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:6 | Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:7 | Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:8 | And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:11 | You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 10:3-4 | For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 10:5 | We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 10:17-18 | But, "Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord." For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 | And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 12:8-9 | Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 12:10 | That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 13:8 | For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 13:11 | Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 13:14 | May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. |
