But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—

Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.

But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part,

If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?

the secrets of his heart are disclosed, and so, falling on his face, he will worship God and declare that God is really among you.

Greetings

The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.
