1 Corinthians 16:10-18 - News About Timothy, Apollos, And Others
10 Now, if Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, as I also do. 11 Let no one, therefore, despise him; but send him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.
12 But concerning Apollos, the brother, I besought him much to come to you with the brethren; and it was not at all his will to come now; but he will come, when he shall have opportunity.
13 Watch, stand fast in the faith; be men; be strong. 14 Let all your affairs be carried on in love.
15 Now I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruit of Achaia, and that they appointed themselves for ministry to the saints), 16 that ye also submit yourselves to such, and to every one who is laboring with us and toiling. 17 And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; because these supplied your deficiency. 18 For, they refreshed my spirit and yours; therefore, recognize those who are such.
