1 Corinthians 4:14-17

14I do not write these things to 1shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved 2children.

15For if you were to have countless 3tutors in Christ, yet you would not have many fathers, for in 4Christ Jesus I 5became your father through the 6gospel.

16Therefore I exhort you, be 7imitators of me.

17For this reason I 8have sent to you 9Timothy, who is my 10beloved and faithful child in the Lord, and he will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, 11just as I teach everywhere in every church.
