1 Corinthians 16:10-18 - News About Timothy, Apollos, And Others

10 But if Timothy may come, see that he may be with you without fear; for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I also: 11 therefore let no one snub him. But send him forth in peace, in order that he may come to me: for I await him with the brethren.

12 But concerning brother Apollos, I entreated him much, that he may come to you with the brethren: but it was not altogether his will that he may come now; but he will come when he may have opportunity.

13 Watch, stand in the faith, be men, be strong. 14 Let all your affairs be in divine love.

15 But I exhort you, brethren; (know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruit of Achaia, and they have set themselves to minister unto the saints), 16 in order that you may indeed be in subjection unto such, and to every one laboring with you and toiling. 17 But I rejoice over the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: because they have supplied your deficiency: 18 for they refreshed my spirit and yours. Acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
