1:1
EMTV
Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
1:2
EMTV
To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all those who in every place are calling on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:
1:3
EMTV
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:4
EMTV
I thank my God always on your behalf for the grace of God which was given to you in Christ Jesus,
1:5
EMTV
that in everything you were enriched by Him in all speech and all knowledge,
1:6
EMTV
just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
1:7
EMTV
so that you are not lacking in any gift, eagerly awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
1:8
EMTV
who will also confirm you until the end, that you may be unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1:9
EMTV
God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
1:10
EMTV
Now I beseech you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no dissension among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same opinion.
1:11
EMTV
For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those of Chloe's household, that there is quarreling among you.
1:12
EMTV
Now this I say, that each of you says, “I am of Paul,” and “I of Apollos,” and “I of Cephas,” and “I of Christ.”
1:13
EMTV
Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
1:14
EMTV
I thank God that I baptized none of you but Crispus and Gaius,
1:15
EMTV
lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name.
1:16
EMTV
Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Other than that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.
1:17
EMTV
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ should be deprived of its power.
1:18
EMTV
For the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1:19
EMTV
For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the understanding of the prudent I will invalidate.”
1:20
EMTV
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
1:21
EMTV
For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, God was well pleased, through the foolishness of preaching, to save those that believe.
1:22
EMTV
For the Jews ask for signs, and the Greeks seek after wisdom;
1:23
EMTV
but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness,
1:24
EMTV
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
1:25
EMTV
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
1:26
EMTV
For you see your calling, brothers, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many powerful, not many noble, are called.
1:27
EMTV
But God chose the foolish things of the world in order that He might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world in order that He might humiliate the mighty.
1:28
EMTV
And the lowly things of the world, and the despised things God has chosen, and the things which are not, in order that He might nullify the things that are,
1:29
EMTV
so that no man may boast before God.
1:30
EMTV
But from Him you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;
1:31
EMTV
that, as it is written, “He that boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”
