Servants of Christ

Servants of Christ

4So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2Now it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.

3I care very little however if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. 4My conscience is clear but that does not vindicate me. It is [the] Lord who judges me.

5Therefore judge nothing before [the] appointed time; [wait] until the Lord comes. [He] will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of [ men’s ] hearts. At that time each will receive [his] praise from God.

6Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit so that you may learn from us not [to go] beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one [man] over another. 7For who makes you so superior What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive [it], why do you boast as though [you did not]?

8Already you have all you want. Already you have become rich. Without us, you have become kings. How I wish you really were kings, so that we might be kings with you! 9For it seems to me that God has displayed us apostles at the end [ of the procession ], like [ prisoners ] appointed for death. We have become a spectacle to the whole world, to angels as well as to men.

10We [are] fools for Christ, but you [are] wise in Christ. We [are] weak, but you [are] strong. You [are] honored, but we [are] dishonored. 11To [this] very hour we are hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clothed, we are brutally treated, we are homeless. 12We work hard with [our] own hands. When we are vilified, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure [it]; 13when we are slandered, we answer gently. Up to this moment we have become [the] scum of the earth, [the] refuse of [the world].
