XVI He putteth thē in remembraunce of the gadderynge for the poore christē at Ierusalē and concludeth his epistle with the salutacions of certayne louynge brethren The first Epistle of the Apostle S. Paul to the Corinthians The first Chapter PAul called to be an Apostle of Iesus Christ thorow y e will of God and brother Sosthenes vnto the congregacion off God which is at Corinthum to them that are sanctified in Christ Iesus sayntes by callinge with all them that call vpon the name of oure LORDE Iesus Christ in euery place both off theirs and oures Grace be with you and peace from God oure father and from the LORDE Iesus Christ. I thāke my God allwayes on youre behalfe for the fauoure of God which is geuē you in Iesus Christ that in all poyntes ye are made ryche by him in euery worde and in all maner of knowlege euē as y e preachinge of Christ is confirmed in you so that ye wante nothinge in eny gifte and wayte but for the appearinge of oure LORDE Iesus Christ which shal strength you also vnto y e ende that ye maye be blamelesse in the daye of oure LORDE Iesus Christ.

Is Christ then deuyded in partes Was Paul crucified for you Or were ye baptysed in y e name of Paul I thanke God that I haue baptised none of you but * Crispus and Gaius lest eny shulde saye y t I in myne awne name had baptised I baptysed also y e housholde of Stephana Farthermore knowe I not whether I baptysed eny other For Christ sent me not to baptyse but to preach the Gospell not with wyszdome of wordes lest y e crosse of Christ shulde haue bene made of none effecte For the worde of y e crosse is foolishnesse to thē that perishe but vnto vs which are saued it is the power of God For it is wryttē I wyl destroye the wyszdome of the wyse wil cast away the vnderstondinge of y e prudēt Where are the wyse Where are y e scrybes where are y e disputers of this worlde Hath not God made the wyszdome of this worlde foolishnesse For in so moch as the worlde by the wyszdome therof knewe not God in his wyszdome it pleased God thorow foolish preachinge to saue them y t beleue For the Iewes requyre tokens and the Grekes axe after wyszdome But we preach Christ the crucified to the Iewes an occasion off fallinge and vnto the Grekes foolishnes But vnto them that are called both Iewes and Grekes we preach Christ the power of God and the wyszdome off God For the foolishnes of God is wyser then men and the weaknes of God is strōger thē men Brethren loke on youre callinge how that not many wysemē after the flesh not many mightie not many of hye degre are called but that foolish is before the worlde hath God chosen that he mighte cōfounde the wyse And that weake is before y e worlde hath God chosen y t he mighte confounde the mightye And the vyle and despysed before the worlde hath God chosen yee and that which is nothinge that he mighte destroye that which is oughte that no flesh shulde reioyse in his presence Of the same are ye also in Christ Iesu which of God is made vnto vs wyszdome and righteousnes and sanctifienge and redēpcion that acordinge as it is wrytten He that reioyseth shulde reioyse in the LORDE The II. Chapter ANd I brethrē whā I came vnto you came not w t hye wordes or hye wyszdome to shewe vnto you the preachinge of Christ. For I shewed not forth my selfe amonge you that I knewe eny thinge saue onely Iesus Christ euen the sam that ewas crucified And I was amonge you in weaknes and in feare and in moch tremblinge and my worde and my preachinge was not with entysinge wordes of mans wyszdome but in shewinge of the sprete and of power that youre faith shulde not stonde in the wyszdome of men but in the power of God That we speake of is wyszdome amonge thē y t are perfecte not y e wyszdome of this worlde nether of the rulers of this worlde which go to naughte but we speake of the wyszdome of God which is in secrete and lyeth hyd which God ordeyned before the worlde vnto oure glorye which none of y e rulers of this worlde knewe For yf they had knowne it they had not crucified the LORDE of glorye but as it is wrytten The eye hath not sene and the eare hath not herde nether hath it entred in to the hert of man that God hath prepared for them that loue him But God hath opened it vnto vs by his sprete For the sprete searcheth out all thinges yee euen the depenesses of the God heade For what mā knoweth what is in man saue the sprete of mā which is in him Euen so no man knoweth what is in God saue y e sprete of God As for vs we haue not receaued the sprete of this worlde but the sprete which cōmeth of God so that we cā knowe what is geuē vs of God which we also speake not with connynge wordes of mās wyszdome but with the cōnynge wordes of the holy goost and iudge spirituall matters spiritually Howbeit the naturall man perceaueth nothinge of y e sprete of God It is foolishnes vnto him and he can not perceaue it for it must be spiritually discerned But he that is spirituall discusseth all thinges and he is iudged of noman For who hath knowne y e mynde of the LORDE Or who shal enfourme him But we haue the mynde of Christ. The III. Chapter ANd I brethren coulde not speake vnto you as vnto spirituall but as vnto carnall euen as vnto babes in Christ. I gaue you mylke to drynke and not meate for ye mighte not then awaye withall nether maye ye yet euen now in so moch as ye are yet fleshlye For seynge there is enuyenge stryfe and discencion amonge you ▪ are ye not fleshly walke after y e maner of men For whan one sayeth I holde of Paul
