- 1:30 It is God who has placed you in Christ Jesus, and he has become God's wisdom for us, which means our righteousness, our holiness and our redemption. 38
- 1:27 Instead, God chose what the world counts foolish, to put the wise to shame. God chose what the world counts weak, to put the strong to shame. 20
- 1:26 Just look at your own calling, brothers and sisters. When God called you, not many of you were wise as people measure wisdom, not many held power, not many came from leading families. 13
- 1:2 to the church of God in Corinth: to you who have been made holy in Christ Jesus, a holy people by God's call, together with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, the Lord who is theirs as well as ours. 11
- 1:18 To those on the way to destruction, the message of the cross is foolishness; but to us who are being saved, it is God's power. 10
- 1:29 so that no human being could ever boast in God's presence. 9
- 1:28 God chose what the world counts low and despises, things that are nothing, to cancel out the things that are something, 8
- 1:21 For in God's wisdom the world, with all its wisdom, did not come to know him. So it was God's good pleasure to save those who believe through the message we preach, foolishness though it seems. 6
- 1:9 God is faithful. It was he who called you to share in the life of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 5
- 1:10 Now, brothers and sisters, I urge you by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: agree with one another, all of you, and let there be no splits among you. Let what is torn be mended, so that you are joined together, one in mind and one in purpose. 5
- 1:12 What I mean is that every one of you takes a side: "I am for Paul," "I am for Apollos," "I am for Cephas," "I am for Christ." 5
- 1:20 Where is the wise person? Where is the expert in the Law? Where is the skilled debater of this present age? Has God not shown the world's wisdom to be foolishness? 5
- 1:23 But we proclaim Christ crucified. To Jews this is an offense they stumble over, and to Gentiles it is foolishness, 5
- 1:13 Has Christ been parceled out? Was it Paul who was crucified for you? Or were you baptized into Paul's name? 4
- 1:1 From Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus, and from Sosthenes our brother, 3
- 1:17 For Christ did not send me to baptize; he sent me to preach the gospel, and not with polished, wise-sounding words, so that the cross of Christ would not be robbed of its force. 3
- 1:19 For Scripture says, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the cleverness of the clever I will bring to nothing." 3
- 1:4 I give thanks to my God for you at all times, because of the grace God gave you in Christ Jesus. 2
- 1:8 He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be free from any charge on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2
- 1:16 Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Beyond them, I am not aware that I baptized anyone else. 2
- 1:24 but to those whom God has called, Jews and Greeks alike, Christ is God's power and God's wisdom. 2
- 1:25 For the foolish thing God has done is wiser than any human wisdom, and the weak thing God has done is stronger than any human strength. 2
- 1:31 So, as Scripture says, "Whoever boasts should boast in the Lord." 2
- 1:3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 1
- 1:7 and so you fall short in no gift of grace while you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1
