The King James Version Bible

1 Corinthians 4:14-19

  1. 14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.

  2. 15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

  3. 16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

  4. 17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.

  5. 18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.

  6. 19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
