1 Corinthians 1:4-94 I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. 5 For in him you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge— 6 God thus confirming our testimony about Christ among you. 7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. 8 He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

1 Corintios 1:4-94 Siempre doy gracias a Dios por ustedes, pues él, en Cristo Jesús, les ha dado su gracia. 5 Unidos a Cristo ustedes se han llenado de toda riqueza, tanto en palabra como en conocimiento. 6 Así se ha confirmado en ustedes nuestro testimonio acerca de Cristo, 7 de modo que no les falta ningún don espiritual mientras esperan con ansias que se manifieste nuestro Señor Jesucristo. 8 Él los mantendrá firmes hasta el fin, para que sean irreprochables en el día de nuestro Señor Jesucristo. 9 Fiel es Dios, quien los ha llamado a tener comunión con su Hijo Jesucristo, nuestro Señor.

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 3:18-19Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight.

Que nadie se engañe. Si alguno de ustedes se cree sabio según las normas de esta época,

hágase ignorante para así llegar a ser sabio.  Porque a los ojos de Dios la sabiduría de este

mundo es locura.1 Corintios 3:18-19

1 Corinthians 8:11So because of your superior knowledge, a weak believer for whom Christ died will be destroyed.

Entonces ese hermano débil, por quien Cristo murió,

se perderá a causa de tu conocimiento. 1 Corintios 8:11

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 5:1-2It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife. And you are proud! .

Es ya del dominio público que hay entre ustedes un caso de inmoralidad sexual que ni siquiera entre los paganos se tolera, a saber,

que uno de ustedes tiene por mujer a la esposa de su padre. ¡Y de esto se sienten

orgullosos!1 Corintios 5:1-2

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 6:13But you can’t say that our bodies were made for sexual immorality. They were made for the Lord, and the Lord cares about our bodies.

Pero el cuerpo no es para la inmoralidad sexual

sino para el Señor, y el Señor para el cuerpo. 1 Corintios 6:13

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 6:7-8The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters. En realidad, ya es una grave falla el solo

hecho de que haya pleitos entre ustedes. ¿No sería mejor soportar la injusticia?

¿No sería mejor dejar que los defrauden?  Lejos de eso, son ustedes los que

defraudan y cometen injusticias, ¡y conste que se trata de sus hermanos!

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 11:20-22When you meet together, you are not really interested in the Lord’s Supper. For some of you hurry to eat your own meal without sharing with others. As a result, some go hungry while others get drunk.  What? Don’t you have your own homes for eating and drinking? Or do you really want to disgrace God’s church and shame the poor? What am I supposed to say? Do you want me to praise you? Well, I certainly will not praise you for this!

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

De hecho, cuando se reúnen, ya no es para comer la Cena del Señor, 21 porque cada

uno se adelanta a comer su propia cena, de manera que unos se quedan con hambre mientras otros se emborrachan. 22 ¿Acaso no tienen casas donde comer y beber? ¿O es que menosprecian a la iglesia de Dios y

quieren avergonzar a los que no tienen nada? ¿Qué les diré? ¿Voy a elogiarlos por

esto? ¡Claro que no!1 Corintios 11:20-22

Some Problems in the Corinthian Church

1 Corinthians 14:39-40So, my dear brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and don’t forbid speaking in tongues. 40 But be sure that everything is done properly and in order.

Así que, hermanos míos, ambicionen el don de profetizar,

y no prohíban que se hable en lenguas.  Pero todo debe hacerse de una manera

apropiada y con orden.1 Corintios 14:39-40

1 Corinthians 13:4-74 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.  

4 El amor es paciente, es bondadoso. El amor no es envidioso ni jactancioso ni orgulloso.

5 No se comporta con rudeza, no es egoísta, no se enoja fácilmente, no guarda rencor. 6 El amor no se deleita en la maldad sino que se

regocija con la verdad. 7 Todo lo disculpa, todo lo cree, todo lo espera, todo lo soporta.
