I speak as to wise men; judge you what I say.
Why, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

Brothers, be not children in understanding: however, in malice be you children, but in understanding be men.
We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are despised.
I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brothers?
Now as touching things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but charity edifies.
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
