1 Corinthians 16
|
|
| 16:1
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the
churches of Galatia, even so do ye. |
|
| 16:2
Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store,
as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. |
|
| 16:3
And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I
send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem. |
|
| 16:4
And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me. |
|
| 16:5
Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do
pass through Macedonia. |
|
| 16:6
And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may
bring me on my journey whithersoever I go. |
|
| 16:7
For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with
you, if the Lord permit. |
|
| 16:8
But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost. |
|
| 16:9
For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many
adversaries. |
|
| 16:10
Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he
worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do. |
|
| 16:11
Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he
may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren. |
|
| 16:12
As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you
with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he
will come when he shall have convenient time. |
|
| 16:13
Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. |
BOM: Alma 1:25
|
| 16:14
Let all your things be done with charity. |
"Let all your things be done with charity."
Do all things with love.
|
| 16:15
I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the
firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the
ministry of the saints,) |
|
| 16:16
That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with
us, and laboureth. |
|
| 16:17
I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that
which was lacking on your part they have supplied. |
|
| 16:18
For they have refreshed my spirit and your's: therefore acknowledge ye
them that are such. |
|
| 16:19
The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in
the Lord, with the church that is in their house. |
|
| 16:20
All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss. |
|
| 16:21
The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand. |
|
| 16:22
If any man love not
the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha. |
"If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema."
Romans 12:14
says, "Bless, and curse not." But in this verse Paul curses those who don't love Jesus and
says that they are to be "anathema" (damned).
How should we treat our enemies?
|
| 16:23
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
|
| 16:24
My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
