| | 1Cr 10:1 | For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
| |
| | 1Cr 10:2 | and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
| |
| | 1Cr 10:3 | and did all eat the same spiritual food;
| |
| | 1Cr 10:4 | and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them: and the rock was Christ.

| | 1Cr 10:12 | Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
| |
| | 1Cr 10:13 | There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.

| |
| | 1Cr 10:26 | for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
| |
| | 1Cr 10:27 | If one of them that believe not biddeth you `to a feast', and ye are disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience' sake.

| |
| | 1Cr 10:29 | conscience, I say, not thine own, but the other's; for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
| |

| |
| | 1Cr 10:33 | even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the `profit' of the many, that they may be saved.
