1 Corinthians 1
9 Ref God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
10 Ref Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
11 Ref For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
12 Ref Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
13 Ref Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
14 Ref I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

23 Ref But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24 Ref But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Ref Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 Ref For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27 Ref But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 Ref And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
