1 Corinthians 4 9-1 Corinthians 4 13
For, I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men.We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor.Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place.We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure.Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now.

You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.The farmer who labors must be the first to get a share of the crops.Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.This saying is trustworthy:“ For if we died with him, we will also live with him.If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
