1 Corinthians 16:11-16

11So you should all respect him properly. When he is ready to leave, help him with the things that he needs. Then he can continue his journey and come to me here. I am waiting for him to come with the other believers.

12As for our Christian friend Apollos, I wanted him to visit you. I have often told him to come to you together with the other believers. But he does not think that this is the right time. He will come to you when he has the chance.

13Watch carefully for danger. Never stop trusting God. Continue to be brave and strong.

14Whatever you do, do it with love.

15My Christian friends, you know about Stephanas and his family. They were the first people in Achaia to become Christians. They have worked hard as God's servants to help his people. So I say this to you.

16You must respect people like them. Do what they say. And also respect everyone who works hard to serve God together with them.
