Thematic Bible: Of ministers, etc
Thematic Bible
Responsibility » According to privileges » Of ministers, etc
[You should] obey your leaders [Note: This probably refers to church elders] and submit to their oversight, for they look out for [the welfare of] your souls as men who will give an accounting [for your spiritual progress]. [Be obedient], so that they will be able to do this joyfully and not with sorrow, for that would be unprofitable to you.
Verse Concepts
To lost people [we become] a smell of death [i.e., we bring condemnation to people who reject our message]; to saved people [we become] a fragrance of life [i.e., we bring salvation to people who accept our message]. And who is adequate to [accomplish] such tasks?
Verse Concepts
Not many of you should be teachers, my brothers, because you [should] know that we [teachers] will be judged more strictly.
