1 Corinthians 9:1
Am I am not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:2
If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:3
Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:4
Have we not power to eat and to drink?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:5
Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:6
Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:7
Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:8
Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:9
For it is written in the law of Moses, thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
7 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:10
Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
5 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:11
If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:12
If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:13
Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
3 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:14
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
8 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:15
But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:16
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
8 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:17
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.
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:18
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
5 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:19
For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
7 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:20
And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
7 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:21
To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:22
To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
3 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:23
And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
3 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:24
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
12 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:25
And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
12 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:26
I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
15 I
MC
VC
1 Corinthians 9:27
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
13 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:1~17
2 Corinthians 2:1
But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:2
For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:3
And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:4
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
4 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:5
But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:6
Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:7
So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
3 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:8
Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
3 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:9
For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:10
To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;
3 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:11
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
3 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:12
Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ’s gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:13
I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:14
Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
21 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:15
For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
25 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:16
To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
10 I
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 2:17
For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
MC
VC
2 Corinthians 11:24
2 Corinthians 11:24
Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
