1 Corinthians 4:14-21

14I am not writingG3756G1125 thisG3778 to shameG1788 youG4771, butG235 to warn youG3560 asG5613 myG1473 belovedG27 childrenG5043. 15EvenG1063 ifG1437 you haveG2192 ten thousandG3463 guardiansG3807 inG1722 ChristG5547, you do notG3756 have manyG4183 fathersG3962; forG1063 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 IG1473 became your fatherG1080G4771 throughG1223 theG3588 gospelG2098. 16ThereforeG3767 I urgeG3870 youG4771 to imitateG1096G3402 meG1473. 17That is whyG1223G3778G846 I have sentG3992 youG4771 TimothyG5095, myG1473 belovedG27 andG2532 faithfulG4103 childG5043 inG1722 the LordG2962. He will remindG363 youG4771 of myG1473 way of lifeG3598 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424,1 which is exactly whatG2531 I teachG1321 everywhereG3837 inG1722 everyG3956 churchG1577.

18SomeG5100 of you have become arrogantG5448, as ifG5613 IG1473 were not comingG3361G2064 toG4314 youG4771. 19ButG1161 I will comeG2064 toG4314 youG4771 shortlyG5030, ifG1437 theG3588 LordG2962 is willingG2309, andG2532 then I will find outG1097 notG3756 only whatG3588 theseG3588 arrogantG5448 people are sayingG3056, butG235 whatG3588 powerG1411 they have. 20ForG1063 theG3588 kingdomG932 of GodG2316 is notG3756 a matter ofG1722 talkG3056 butG235 ofG1722 powerG1411. 21WhichG5101 do you preferG2309? Shall I comeG2064 toG4314 youG4771 withG1722 a rodG4464, orG2228 inG1722 loveG26 andG5037 with a gentleG4240 spiritG4151?
