And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? / If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain: / But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.

Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.

Do not err, my beloved brethren.
