| 1 | Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes, | Ro 1:1 Ga 2:7 Ga 2:8 |
| 2 | to the assembly of God which is at Corinth; those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours: | Ac 18:1 Ac 18:8-11 2Co 1:1 Ga 1:2 1Th 1:1 2Th 1:1 1Ti 3:15 |
| 3 | Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | Ro 1:7 2Co 1:2 Eph 1:2 1Pe 1:2 |
| 4 | I always thank my God concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus; | Ro 1:8 Ro 6:17 Ac 11:23 Ac 21:20 |
| 5 | that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge; | 1Co 4:7-10 Ro 11:12 2Co 9:11 Eph 2:7 Eph 3:8 |
| 6 | even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: | 1Co 2:1 1Co 2:2 Ac 18:5 Ac 20:21 Ac 20:24 Ac 22:18 Ac 23:11 Ac 28:23 1Ti 2:6 2Ti 1:8 1Jn 5:11-13 Rev 1:2 Rev 1:9 Rev 6:9 Rev 12:11 Rev 12:17 Rev 19:10 |
| 7 | so that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ; | 2Co 12:13 |
| 8 | who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. | Ps 37:17 Ps 37:28 Ro 14:4 Ro 16:25 2Co 1:21 1Th 3:13 1Th 5:24 2Th 3:3 1Pe 5:10 |
| 9 | God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. | 1Co 10:13 Nm 23:19 Dt 7:9 Dt 32:4 Ps 89:33-35 Ps 100:5 Isa 11:5 Isa 25:1 Isa 49:7 Lam 3:22 Lam 3:23 Mt 24:35 1Th 5:23 1Th 5:24 2Th 3:3 Tit 1:2 Heb 2:17 Heb 6:18 Heb 10:23 Heb 11:11 Rev 19:11 |
| 10 | Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment. | 1Co 4:16 Ro 12:1 2Co 5:20 2Co 6:1 2Co 10:1 Ga 4:12 Eph 4:1 Phm 1:9 Phm 1:10 1Pe 2:11 |
| 11 | 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. | 1Co 11:18 Gn 27:42 Gn 37:2 1Sa 25:14-17 |
| 12 | Now I mean this, that each one of you says, "I follow Paul," "I follow Apollos," "I follow Cephas," and, "I follow Christ." | 1Co 7:29 1Co 15:50 2Co 9:6 Ga 3:17 |
| 13 | Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul? | 2Co 11:4 Ga 1:7 Eph 4:5 |
| 14 | I thank God that I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius, | 1Co 1:4 1Co 14:18 2Co 2:14 Eph 5:20 Col 3:15 Col 3:17 1Th 5:18 1Ti 1:12 Phm 1:4 |
| 15 | so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name. | Jn 3:28 Jn 3:29 Jn 7:18 2Co 11:2 |
| 16 | (I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don`t know whether I baptized any other.) | 1Co 16:15 1Co 16:17 Ac 16:15 Ac 16:33 |
| 17 | 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. | Jn 4:2 Ac 10:48 Ac 26:17 Ac 26:18 |
| 18 | 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. | 1Co 1:23 1Co 1:24 1Co 2:2 Ga 6:12-14 |
| 19 | For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing." | 1Co 3:19 Jb 5:12 Jb 5:13 Isa 19:3 Isa 19:11 Isa 29:14 Jer 8:9 |
| 20 | 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? | Isa 33:18 Isa 53:1 |
| 21 | 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. | 1Co 1:24 Dn 2:20 Ro 11:33 Eph 3:10 |
| 22 | For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom, | Mt 12:38 Mt 12:39 Mt 16:1-4 Mk 8:11 Lk 11:16 Lk 11:20 Jn 2:18 Jn 4:28 |
| 23 | but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks, | 1Co 1:18 1Co 2:2 Lk 24:46 Lk 24:47 Ac 7:32-35 Ac 10:39-43 2Co 4:5 Ga 3:1 Ga 6:14 Eph 3:8 |
| 24 | but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. | 1Co 1:2 1Co 1:9 Lk 7:35 Ro 8:28-30 Ro 9:24 |
| 25 | Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. | 1Co 1:18 1Co 1:27-29 Ex 13:17 Ex 14:2-4 Jsh 6:2-5 Jg 7:2-8 Jg 15:15 Jg 15:16 1Sa 17:40-51 1Ki 20:14-22 Zc 4:6 Zc 4:7 Zc 12:7 Zc 12:8 Ro 11:33-36 |
| 26 | For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble; | 1Co 1:20 1Co 2:3-6 1Co 2:13-6 1Co 3:18-20 Zep 3:12 Mt 11:25 Mt 11:26 Lk 10:21 Jn 7:47-49 Jm 3:13-17 |
| 27 | 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; | Ps 8:2 Isa 26:5 Isa 26:6 Isa 29:14 Isa 29:19 Zep 3:12 Mt 4:18-22 Mt 9:9 Mt 11:25 Mt 21:16 Lk 19:39 Lk 19:40 Lk 21:15 Ac 4:11-21 Ac 6:9 Ac 6:10 Ac 7:35 Ac 7:54 Ac 17:18 Ac 24:24 Ac 24:25 2Co 4:7 2Co 10:4 2Co 10:5 2Co 10:10 |
| 28 | 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: | Ro 4:17 2Co 12:11 |
| 29 | that no flesh should boast before God. | 1Co 1:31 1Co 4:7 1Co 5:6 Ps 49:6 Isa 10:15 Jer 9:23 Ro 3:19 Ro 3:27 Ro 4:2 Ro 15:17 Eph 2:9 |
| 30 | But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption: | 1Co 12:18 1Co 12:27 Isa 45:17 Jn 15:1-6 Jn 17:21-23 Ro 8:1 Ro 12:5 Ro 16:7 Ro 16:11 2Co 5:17 2Co 12:2 Eph 1:3 Eph 1:4 Eph 1:10 Eph 2:10 |
| 31 | that, according as it is written, "He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord." | 1Ch 16:10 1Ch 16:35 Ps 105:3 Isa 41:16 Isa 45:25 Jer 4:2 Jer 9:23 Jer 9:24 2Co 10:17 Ga 6:13 Ga 6:14 Php 3:3 |
