4For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
5Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another.
14For the unbelieving husband is made holy because of his wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy because of her husband.
33But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife, 34and his interests are divided.
14In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel.
18What then is my reward? That in my preaching I may present the gospel free of charge, so as not to make full use of my right in the gospel.
19For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them.
I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.
20No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God.
24Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.
every wife [41] who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head,
6For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head.
14Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him, 15but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory?
7To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
4Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; [57] 6it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a

9So with yourselves, if with your tongue you utter speech that is not intelligible, how will anyone know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.
I would rather speak five words with my mind in order to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature.
28But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church and speak to himself and to God.
33For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.
As in all the churches of the saints, 34the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says.
40But all things should be done decently and in order.
that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,
21For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
23But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. 24Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
31I protest, brothers, by my pride in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die every day!
33Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”
40There are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is of one kind, and the glory of the earthly is of another.
44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; [65] the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.
49Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall [66] also bear the image of the man of heaven.
58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
13Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 14Let all that you do be done in love.
2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
11You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many.
20For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory.
4Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God. 5Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God, 6who has made us competent [9] to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
9For if there was glory in the ministry of condemnation, the ministry of righteousness must far exceed it in glory.
10Indeed, in this case, what once had glory has come to have no glory at all, because of the glory that surpasses it.
8We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.
16So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self [15] is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. 17For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,
10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.
17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. [17] The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
10For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.
7Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
4For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.
24Five times I received at the hands of the Jews the forty lashes less one. 25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I was adrift at sea; 26on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers; 27in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, [35] in cold and exposure.
9But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Every charge must be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses.
