1 Korintus 1:18

The Message of the Cross

1 Korintus 4:19

1 Korintus 8:1

1 Korintus 9:17

1 Korintus 11:7

11:7 For a man should not have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man.

1 Korintus 14:24

14:24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or uninformed person enters, he will be convicted by all, he will be called to account by all.

[8:1]  ¹ sn “We all have knowledge.” Here and in v. 4 Paul cites certain slogans the Corinthians apparently used to justify their behavior (cf. 6:12-13; 7:1; 10:23). Paul agrees with the slogans in part, but corrects them to show how the Corinthians have misused these ideas.
