1 Corinthians 1:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ And I baptized also the household of Stephanas; besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

¹⁷ ¶ For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross {Gr. stauros – stake} of Christ should be made void.

¹⁸ For the word of the cross {Gr. stauros – stake} is foolishness to those that perish, but unto us who are saved, it is the power of God.
