00:00.000 --> 00:04.940
The first epistle of Paul the Apostle to
the Corinthians, chapter 1.

00:05.960 --> 00:09.940
Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus
Christ through the will of God,

00:10.460 --> 00:11.780
and Sosthenes our brother.

00:12.560 --> 00:16.980
Unto the church of God, which is at
Corinth, to them that are sanctified in

00:16.980 --> 00:21.920
Christ Jesus, call to be saints,
with all that in every place call upon the

00:21.920 --> 00:26.580
name of Jesus Christ our Lord,
both theirs and ours.

00:27.320 --> 00:32.280
Grace be unto you, and peace from God our
Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:33.300 --> 00:38.500
I thank my God always on your behalf,
for the grace of God, which is given you

00:38.500 --> 00:44.420
by Jesus Christ, that in everything ye are
enriched by him, in all utterance,

00:44.820 --> 00:49.300
and in all knowledge, even as the
testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,

00:49.880 --> 00:54.820
so that ye come behind in no gift,
waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus

00:54.820 --> 01:00.620
Christ, who shall also confirm you unto
the end, that ye may be blameless in the

01:00.620 --> 01:02.160
day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

01:02.960 --> 01:07.240
God is faithful, by whom ye were called
unto the fellowship of his Son,

01:07.580 --> 01:09.000
Jesus Christ our Lord.

01:10.060 --> 01:14.900
Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all

01:14.900 --> 01:19.860
speak the same thing, and that there be no
divisions among you, but that ye be

01:19.860 --> 01:23.620
perfectly joined together in the same
mind, and in the same judgment.

01:24.420 --> 01:28.620
For it hath been declared unto me of you,
my brethren, by them which are of the

01:28.620 --> 01:31.460
house of Chloe, that there are contentions
among you.

01:32.100 --> 01:37.860
Now this I say, that every one of you
saith, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos,

01:38.340 --> 01:40.840
and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.

01:41.580 --> 01:42.920
Is Christ divided?

01:43.600 --> 01:45.280
Was Paul crucified for you?

01:45.740 --> 01:48.120
Or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

01:48.740 --> 01:55.080
I thank God that I baptized none of you,
but Crispus and Gaius, lest any should say

01:55.080 --> 01:57.620
that I had baptized in mine own name.

01:58.120 --> 02:00.760
And I baptized also the household of
Stephanus.

02:01.340 --> 02:04.080
Besides, I know not whether I baptized any
other.

02:04.780 --> 02:09.480
For Christ sent me not to baptize,
but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom

02:09.480 --> 02:13.360
of words, lest the cross of Christ should
be made of none effect.

02:14.600 --> 02:17.980
For the preaching of the cross is to them
that perish foolishness.

02:18.520 --> 02:22.240
But unto us which are saved, it is the
power of God.

02:22.820 --> 02:27.560
For it is written, I will destroy the
wisdom of the wise, and will bring to

02:27.560 --> 02:29.120
nothing the understanding of the prudent.

02:30.160 --> 02:31.380
Where is the wise?

02:31.940 --> 02:33.180
Where is the scribe?

02:33.440 --> 02:35.400
Where is the disputer of this world?

02:35.720 --> 02:38.500
Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of
this world?

02:38.740 --> 02:42.900
For after that, in the wisdom of God,
the world by wisdom knew not God.

02:43.140 --> 02:46.940
It pleased God by the foolishness of
preaching to save them that believe.

02:48.000 --> 02:52.000
For the Jews require a sign, and the
Greeks seek after wisdom.

02:53.100 --> 02:55.180
But we preach Christ crucified.

02:55.920 --> 02:59.620
Unto the Jews a stumbling block,
and unto the Greeks foolishness.

02:59.960 --> 03:05.100
But unto them which are called both Jews
and Greeks, Christ, the power of God,

03:05.180 --> 03:06.680
and the wisdom of God.

03:07.080 --> 03:12.200
Because the foolishness of God is wiser
than men, and the weakness of God is

03:12.200 --> 03:13.140
stronger than men.

03:13.740 --> 03:18.920
For ye see your calling, brethren,
how that not many wise men after the

03:18.920 --> 03:22.640
flesh, not many mighty, not many noble,
are called.

03:23.360 --> 03:27.480
But God hath chosen the foolish things of
the world to confound the wise,

03:27.900 --> 03:32.360
and God hath chosen the weak things of the
world to confound the things which are

03:32.360 --> 03:37.400
mighty, and base things of the world,
and things which are despised hath God

03:37.400 --> 03:42.560
chosen, yea, and things which are not,
to bring to naught things that are.

03:43.300 --> 03:47.700
That no flesh should glory in his
presence, but of him are ye in Christ

03:47.700 --> 03:54.340
Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom,
and righteousness, and sanctification,

03:54.800 --> 03:55.700
and redemption.

03:56.460 --> 04:02.520
That, according as it is written,
he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
