Is there not care to God for oxen? read more.
Or does he say altogether on account of us? For it was written on account of us: that he ploughing ought to plough upon hope; and he grinding upon hope, to participate with his hope. If we have sown to you spiritual things, is it great if we shall reap your carnal things? If others participate with your power, not rather we? But we used not this power; but endure all things, lest we give some hindrance to the good news of Christ. Do ye not know that they working consecrated things, eat of the temple? they working diligently at the altar, share together with the altar? Thus also the Lord appointed to them announcing good news to live of the good news. But I used none of these things: and I wrote not these things, that thus it might be with me: for good to me rather to die, than that any should render my boasting void. For if I announce the good news, there is no boasting to me: for necessity is laid upon me; and woe is to me, if I announce not the good news! For if of free will I do this, I have reward: and if unwillingly, I have been entrusted with a stewardship. What reward therefore is to me? That announcing good news, I shall make the good news of Christ not expensive, not to make use of my power in the good news. For being free from all, I have subjected myself to all, that I might gain the more. And I was to the Jews as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: to them under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them under the law; To the lawless, as lawless, (not being lawless to God, but subject to the law to Christ,) that I might gain the lawless, I became to the weak as weak, that I might gain the weak: I have been all things to all, that altogether I might save some. And this. I do on account of the good news, that I might become a partaker of it.
