Those who were regarded as the leaders??hat they once were makes no difference to me; God takes no account of external differences??he leaders contributed nothing new to me.

Only, we were to remember the poor, and that I have taken pains to do.

To take an illustration, brothers, from daily life: even a human agreement, once ratified, no one annuls or alters.

Take my position, I beg you, brothers, just as I once took yours! You took no advantage of me then;

I am confident in the Lord that you will not take a different view. The man who is unsettling you will have to pay the penalty for it, no matter who he is.

But if you bite one another and eat one another, take care, or you will be destroyed by one another.
