52 Week Bible Reading Plan

1 Corinthians 1

1

Paul, [a] called apostle of Jesus Christ, by God's will, and Sosthenes the brother,

2

to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, to [those] sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all that in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:

3

Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

4

I thank my God always about you, in respect of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus;

5

that in everything ye have been enriched in him, in all word [of doctrine], and all knowledge,

6

(according as the testimony of the Christ has been confirmed in you,)

7

so that ye come short in no gift, awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

8

who shall also confirm you to [the] end, unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9

God [is] faithful, by whom ye have been called into [the] fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

10

Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all say the same thing, and that there be not among you divisions; but that ye be perfectly united in the same mind and in the same opinion.

11

For it has been shewn to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of [the house of] Chloe, that there are strifes among you.

12

But I speak of this, that each of you says, *I* am of Paul, and *I* of Apollos, and *I* of Cephas, and *I* of Christ.

13

Is the Christ divided? has Paul been crucified for you? or have ye been baptised unto the name of Paul?

14

I thank God that I have baptised none of you, unless Crispus and Gaius,

15

that no one may say that I have baptised unto my own name.

16

Yes, I baptised also the house of Stephanas; for the rest I know not if I have baptised any other.

17

For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain.

18

For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God's power.

19

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and set aside the understanding of the understanding ones.

20

Where [is the] wise? where scribe? where disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?

21

For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.

22

Since Jews indeed ask for signs, and Greeks seek wisdom;

23

but *we* preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness;

24

but to those that [are] called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom.

25

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26

For consider your calling, brethren, that [there are] not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born.

27

But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;

28

and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has God chosen, [and] things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;

29

so that no flesh should boast before God.

30

But of him are *ye* in Christ Jesus, who has been made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption;

31

that according as it is written, He that boasts, let him boast in [the] Lord.

1 Corinthians 2

1

And *I*, when I came to you, brethren, came not in excellency of word, or wisdom, announcing to you the testimony of God.

2

For I did not judge [it well] to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and *him* crucified.

3

And *I* was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling;

4

and my word and my preaching, not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of [the] Spirit and of power;

5

that your faith might not stand in men's wisdom, but in God's power.

6

But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought.

7

But we speak God's wisdom in [a] mystery, that hidden [wisdom] which God had predetermined before the ages for our glory:

8

which none of the princes of this age knew, (for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory;)

9

but according as it is written, Things which eye has not seen, and ear not heard, and which have not come into man's heart, which God has prepared for them that love him,

10

but God has revealed to us by [his] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.

11

For who of men hath known the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? thus also the things of God knows no one except the Spirit of God.

12

But *we* have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which [is] of God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of God:

13

which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, communicating spiritual [things] by spiritual [means].

14

But [the] natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him; and he cannot know [them] because they are spiritually discerned;

15

but the spiritual discerns all things, and *he* is discerned of no one.

16

For who has known the mind of [the] Lord, who shall instruct him? But *we* have the mind of Christ.
