'Thing' in the Bible

That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

For because, by the purpose of God, the world, with all its wisdom, had not the knowledge of God, it was God's pleasure, by so foolish a thing as preaching, to give salvation to those who had faith in him.

But we give the good news of Christ on the cross, a hard thing to the Jews, and a foolish thing to the Gentiles;

[This is] because the foolishness of God [is not foolishness at all and] is wiser than men [far beyond human comprehension], and the weakness of God is stronger than men [far beyond the limits of human effort].

For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

the true character of each individual's work will become manifest. For the day of Christ will disclose it, because that day is soon to come upon us clothed in fire, and as for the quality of every one's work-- the fire is the thing which will test it.

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

For Apostolic authority is not a thing of words, but of power.

And you are proud and arrogant! You should have mourned in shame so that the man who has done this [disgraceful] thing would be removed from your fellowship!

For though I am absent in body but present in spirit, I have already decided about the one who has done this thing as though I were present.

It is no good thing--this which you make the ground of your boasting. Do you not know that a little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough?

Do you not see that your bodies are part of the body of Christ? how then may I take what is a part of the body of Christ and make it a part of the body of a loose woman? such a thing may not be.

But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.

and those who mourn as though they did not mourn, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they did not own a thing,

And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that there is no such thing as an idol in the world, and that there is no God but one.

Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

Am I saying this from a human perspective? Doesn’t the law also say the same thing?

If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

and if any one may say to you, 'This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,' -- do not eat, because of that one who shewed it, and of the conscience, for the Lord's is the earth and its fulness:

If, so far as I am concerned, I partake with a grateful heart, why am I to be found fault with in regard to a thing for which I give thanks?"

So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

and every woman praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, doth dishonour her own head, for it is one and the same thing with her being shaven,

But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

Now though it is my desire for you all to have the power of tongues, it would give me more pleasure to be hearing the prophet's word from you; for this is a greater thing than using tongues, if the sense is not given at the same time, for the good of the church.

If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

But if Christ is preached as having risen from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?

If there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead, then Christ Himself has not risen to life.

and if Christ has not risen, your faith is a vain thing--you are still in your sins.

There are bodies which are celestial and there are bodies which are earthly, but the glory of the celestial ones is one thing, and that of the earthly ones is another.
