|
| 1 Corinthians 1:8 | He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:9 | God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:10 | I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may 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 man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 1:26-27 | Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. 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. |
| |
| 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 men's wisdom, but on God's power. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 2:9 | However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"-- |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 2:12-13 | We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 3:7-8 | So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 3:11 | For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 3:16 | Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? |
| |
| 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 till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 5:6-7 | Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast--as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:11 | And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:14 | By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:17 | But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 | Do you not know that your body is a temple 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 body. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 8:2-3 | The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know. But the man who 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 freedom 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 men 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 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. |
| |
| 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 seized you except what is common to man. 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 stand up under it. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 | Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 10:24 | Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. |
| |
| 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. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 12:7 | Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 12:12 | The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. |
| |
| 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 and of angels, but have not 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 have not love, I am nothing. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:3 | If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not 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 is not rude, 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 childish ways behind me. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 13:12 | Now we see but a poor 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. |
| |
| 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 to have spiritual gifts, try to excel in gifts that build up the church. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 14:15 | So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind. |
| |
| 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 15:3-5 | 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, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:19-20 | If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men. But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:21-22 | For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:33 | Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:49 | And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:56-57 | The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| |
| 1 Corinthians 15:58 | Therefore, my dear brothers, 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 men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 | Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. |
| |
| 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 2:14-15 | But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him. For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. |
| |
| 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 3:6 | He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant--not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 | Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:2 | Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:4 | The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 4:5-6 | For we do not preach 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 the glory of God 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 4:16-18 | 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. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:1 | Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:10 | For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him 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, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:20 | 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. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 5:21 | 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 | 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 8:7 | But just as you excel in everything--in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us --see that you also excel in this grace of giving. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 8:9 | For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 8:14-15 | At the present time your plenty will supply what they need, so that in turn their plenty will supply what you need. Then there will be equality, as it is written: "He who gathered much did not have too much, and he who gathered little did not have too little." |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 | Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 9:8 | And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. |
| |
| 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 him who boasts boast in the Lord."(2Co 10:18 NIV) For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 | For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 12:9 | 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 13:4 | For to be sure, he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God's power. Likewise, we are weak in him, yet by God's power we will live with him to serve you. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 13:8 | For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. |
| |
| 2 Corinthians 13:11 | Finally, brothers, good-by. Aim for perfection, listen to my appeal, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you. |
