- God is faithful; by him you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
- Now I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you be in agreement and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same purpose.
- For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
- God chose what is low and despised in the world, things that are not, to reduce to nothing things that are, so that no one might boast in the presence of God.
He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
