Servants of Christ

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:1 -

This G3779 is G3779 the G3779 way G3779 any person G444 is to regard G3049 us: as servants G5257 of Christ G5547 and stewards G3623 of the mysteries G3466 of God G2316.

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:2 - In this G5602 case G5602, moreover G3062, it is required G523 [fn]of stewards G3623 that one G5100 be found G2147 trustworthy G4103.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:3 - But to me it is an insignificant G1646 matter G1646 that I would be examined G350 by you, or G2228 by any human G442 [fn]court G2250; in G235 fact G235, I do not even G3761 examine G350 myself G1683.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:4 - For I am G6083 not aware G6083 of anything G3762 against myself G1683; however G235 I am not vindicated G1344 by this G3778, but the one who examines G350 me is the Lord G2962.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:5 - Therefore G5620 do not go on [fn]passing G2919 judgment G2919 before G4253 [fn]the time G2540, but wait until G2193 the Lord G2962 comes G2064, who G3739 will both G2532 bring G5461 to G5461 light G5461 the things G2927 hidden G2927 in the darkness G4655 and disclose G5319 the motives G1012 of human hearts G2588; and then G5119 praise G1868 will come G1096 to each G1538 person G1538 from God G2316.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:6 -

Now G1161 these G3778 things G3778, brothers G80 and sisters, I have figuratively G3345 applied G3345 to myself G1683 and Apollos G625 on G1223 your account G1223, so G2443 that G2443 in us you may learn G3129 not to exceed G5228 what G3739 is written G1125, so G2443 that G2443 no G3361 one G1520 of you will become [fn]arrogant G5448 in G5228 behalf G5228 of one G1520 against G2596 the other G2087.

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:7 - For who G5101 considers G1252 you as G1252 superior G1252? What G5101 do you have G2192 that you did not receive G2983? And if G1487 you did receive G2983 it, why G5101 do you boast G2744 as if G5613 you had not received G2983 it?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:8 -

You are already G2235 filled G2880, you have already G2235 become G4147 rich G4147, you have become G936 kings G936 without G5565 us; and indeed G1065, I wish G3785 that you had become G936 kings G936 so G2443 that G2443 we also G2532 might reign G4821 with you!

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:9 - For I think G1380, God G2316 has exhibited G584 us, the apostles G652, last G2078 of G2078 all G2078 as men G1935 condemned G1935 to G1935 death G1935, because G3754 we have become G1096 a spectacle G2302 to the world G2889, both G2532 to angels G32 and to mankind G444.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:10 - We are fools G3474 on account G1223 of Christ G5547, but you are prudent G5429 in Christ G5547! We are weak G772, but you are strong G2478! You are distinguished G1741, but we are without G820 honor G820!
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:11 - Up G891 to G891 this G3588 present G737 hour G5610 we are both G2532 hungry G3983 and thirsty G1372, and are poorly G1130 clothed G1130 and roughly G2852 treated G2852 and homeless G790;
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:12 - and we labor G2872, working G2038 with our own G2398 hands G5495; when we are verbally G3058 abused G3058, we bless G2127; when we are persecuted G1377, we endure G430 it;
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:13 - when we are slandered G6022, we [fn]reply G3870 as G3870 friends G3870; we have become G1096 as the scum G4027 of the world G2889, the dregs G4067 of all G3956 things G3956, even until G2193 now G737.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:14 -

I do not write G1125 these G3778 things G3778 to shame G1788 you, but to admonish G3560 you as my beloved G27 children G5043.

Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:15 - For if G1437 you were to have G2192 countless G3463 tutors G3807 in Christ G5547, yet G235 you would not have many G4183 fathers G3962, for in Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 I became G1080 your father G1080 through G1223 the gospel G2098.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:16 - Therefore G3767 I urge G3870 you, be imitators G3402 of me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:17 - For this G3778 reason G1223 I have sent G3992 to you Timothy G5095, who G3739 is my beloved G27 and faithful G4103 child G5043 in the Lord G2962, and he will remind G363 you of my ways G3598 which are in Christ G5547, just G2531 as G2531 I teach G1321 everywhere G3837 in every G3956 church G1577.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:18 - Now G1161 some G5100 have become [fn]arrogant G5448, as G5613 though G5613 I were not coming G2064 to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:19 - But I will come G2064 to you soon G5030, if G1437 the Lord G2962 wills G2309, and I shall find G1097 out G1097, not the [fn]words G3056 of those G3588 who are arrogant G5448, but their power G1411.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:20 - For the kingdom G932 of God G2316 is not in [fn]words G3056, but in power G1411.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:21 - What G5101 do you desire G2309? That I come G2064 to you with a rod G4464, or G2228 with love G26 and a spirit G4151 of gentleness G4240?
