  1. 15If any man’s work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.
  2. 16Don’t you know that you are a temple of God, and that God’s Spirit lives in you?
  3. 17If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are.
  4. 18Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.
  5. 19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”
