1 Corinthians 1

1 Ref Paul, called `to be' an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

2 Ref unto the church of God which is at Corinth, `even' them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called `to be' saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their `Lord' and ours:

3 Ref Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 Ref I thank my God always concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;

5 Ref that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all utterance and all knowledge;

6 Ref even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

7 Ref so that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

8 Ref who shall also confirm you unto the end, `that ye be' unreproveable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 Ref God is faithful, through whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

10 Ref Now I beseech you, brethren, through 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 perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

11 Ref For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them `that are of the household' of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

12 Ref Now this I mean, that each 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 into the name of Paul?

14 Ref I thank God that I baptized none of you, save Crispus and Gaius;

15 Ref lest any man should say that ye were baptized into my name.

16 Ref And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

17 Ref For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.
