Paul Gives Up His Rights As An Apostle

¹⁴ So also the Lord directed those who proclaim the gospel to get their living from the gospel. ¹⁵ But I have used none of these things. And I am not writing these things so that it will be done so in my case; for it would be better for me to die than have any man make my boast an empty one. ¹⁶ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for I am under compulsion; for woe is me if I do not preach the gospel.
