has

the grace of

For
in Him
you have
been
enriched in every
way
, in all speech and all knowledge ,
that
in everything
you were
enriched in him
, in all speech and all knowledge ;
because
our
testimony about
Christ was confirmed in you .
even
as
the
testimony of
Christ was confirmed in you :
Therefore
you do
not
lack
any
spiritual
gift as
you
eagerly
await

you, brothers, in
the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all
of
you agree
together,
so
that there may
be no divisions among you and
that you may
be united
in mind and conviction
.
Now
I beg
you, brothers, through
the name of our Lord ,
Jesus Christ, that you all

from Chloe’s
household have
informed
me
that there are quarrels
among you.
For
it
has
been
reported
to
me
concerning
you,
my brothers, by
those
who
are
from Chloe's
household ,
that there are contentions
among you.
What
I mean is
this :
Individuals
among
you are
saying
, “
I follow Paul, ”
“
I follow Apollos, ”
“
I follow Cephas, ”
or
“
I follow Christ. ”
Now
I mean this ,
that
each
one
of
you says
, "
I follow Paul, "
"
I follow Apollos, "
"
I follow Cephas, "
and,
"
I follow Christ. "

not
baptize
any
of you except Crispus and Gaius,
I thank God that I baptized
none

baptized you
into my own
name.

I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond
that

not
remember
if
I baptized anyone
else

know
whether
I baptized any
other
. )
For Christ did
not
send
me to baptize, but to preach the gospel ,
not with
words
of
wisdom, lest
the cross of Christ be emptied
of
its
power
.
For Christ sent
me not
to baptize, but to preach the Gospel --
not in
wisdom of
words
, so
that
the cross of Christ wouldn't
be made
void
.
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.
For the word
of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying
, but to us who are saved it is the power of God.
For it is written :
“

the intelligence
of the intelligent
I
will
frustrate
. ”

I
will
bring
the discernment
of the discerning
to
nothing

Where is the wise man
? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher
of this age
? Has
not
God made foolish the wisdom of the
world?
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer
of this world
? Hasn't
God made foolish the wisdom of this
world?
For since
in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did
not
know Him,
God was pleased
through the foolishness of what
was
preached
to save those who believe.
For seeing
that
in the wisdom of God ,
the world through its wisdom didn't
know God ,
it
was God's
good
pleasure
through the foolishness of the
preaching
to save those who believe.
Jews demand
signs and
Greeks search
for
wisdom,
For
Jews ask
for
signs ,
Greeks seek
after
wisdom,
but we preach Christ crucified ,
a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles
,
but we preach Christ crucified ;
a stumbling block to Jews ,
and foolishness to Greeks
,
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is
the power of God and the wisdom of God.
For
the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s
wisdom
, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s
strength
.
Because
the foolishness of God is wiser than men
, and the weakness of God is stronger than men
.
Brothers,
consider
the
time
of
your calling :
Not many of
you
were
wise by
human
standards;
not many were
powerful;
not many were
of
noble birth.
For
you
see
your calling ,
brothers,
that
not many are
wise according
to
the
flesh,
not many mighty,
and
not many noble ;
But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the
wise ;
God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong .
but God chose the foolish things of the world that
he
might
put
to shame those
who
are
wise .
God chose the weak things of the world ,
that
he
might
put
to shame the things
that
are
strong ;
He
chose the lowly and
despised
things of the world, and the things that are not, to nullify
the things that are ,
and
God
chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised,
and
the
things
that
are
not, that
he
might
bring
to nothing
the things that are :
so
that no one
may
boast in
His
presence
.
that no flesh
should
boast before
God
.
It
is
because
of Him that
you are in Christ Jesus, who has
become
for
us wisdom from God :
our
righteousness
, holiness
, and redemption .
But
of him ,
you are in Christ Jesus, who was
made
to
us wisdom from God, and
righteousness
and
sanctification
, and redemption :
Therefore
, as it is written :
“Let
him
who boasts boast in the Lord. ”
that
, according
as it is written ,
"He
who boasts ,
let
him
boast in the Lord. "
