But with most of them God was not pleased: for they came to their end in the waste land.

You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.

We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

Let a man give attention not only to what is good for himself, but equally to his neighbour's good.

But if anyone says to you, This food has been used as an offering, do not take it, on account of him who said it, and on account of his sense of right and wrong:

Right and wrong, I say, not for you, but for the other man; for the fact that I am free is not dependent on another man's sense of right or wrong.

But if I give praise to God for the food which I take, let no man say evil of me for that reason.

And the man was not made for the woman, but the woman for the man.

But the woman is not separate from the man, and the man is not separate from the woman in the Lord.

For as the woman is from the man, so the man is through the woman; but all things are from God.

But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given to her for a covering.

But if any man will not be ruled in this question, this is not our way of doing things, and it is not done in the churches of God.

But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

But now, when you come together, it is not possible to take the holy meal of the Lord:
