'Gives' in the Bible
So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.
Why, who gives you your superiority, my brother? Or what have you that you did not receive? And if you really did receive it, why boast as if this were not so?
Have you not knowledge that evil-doers will have no part in the kingdom of God? Have no false ideas about this: no one who goes after the desires of the flesh, or gives worship to images, or is untrue when married, or is less than a man, or makes a wrong use of men,
But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:
But the married man gives his attention to the things of this world, how he may give pleasure to his wife.
And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.
So then both he who gives his own virgin daughter in marriage does well, and he who does not give her in marriage will do better.
Now about things offered to images: we all seem to ourselves to have knowledge. Knowledge gives pride, but love gives true strength.
Now food will not commend us to God nor bring us close to Him; we are no worse off if we do not eat, nor are we better if we do eat.
For if I [merely] preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast about, for I am compelled [that is, absolutely obligated to do it]. Woe to me if I do not preach the good news [of salvation]!
So then I am running, not uncertainly; so I am fighting, not as one who gives blows in the air:
If an unbeliever gives you an invitation and you are disposed to accept it, eat whatever is put before you, and ask no questions for conscience' sake.
Every man who takes part in prayer, or gives teaching as a prophet, with his head covered, puts shame on his head.
But one and the same Spirit produces all these results and gives what he wants to each person.
For our knowledge is only in part, and the prophet's word gives only a part of what is true:
For now [in this time of imperfection] we see in a mirror dimly [a blurred reflection, a riddle, an enigma], but then [when the time of perfection comes we will see reality] face to face. Now I know in part [just in fragments], but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God].
Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.
But the word of the prophet gives men knowledge and comfort and strength.
He who makes use of tongues may do good to himself; but he who gives the prophet's word does good to the church.
And if the [war] bugle produces an indistinct sound, who will prepare himself for battle?
So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.
Then the end, when he gives up the kingdom to him who is God and Father; when he shall have annulled all rule and all authority and power.
But God gives it a body as He wants, and to each of the seeds its own body.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victorythrough our Lord Jesus Christ!
