1 Corinthians 9:23 Context
21To them that are without Law, as without Law (being not without Law to God, but vnder the Law to Christ,) that I might gaine them that are without Law. 22To the weake became I as weake, that I might gaine the weake: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all meanes saue some. 23And this I doe for the Gospels sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you. 24Know yee not that they which runne in a race, runne all, but one receiueth the price? So runne, that yee may obtaine. 25And euery man that striueth for the masterie, is temperate in all things: Now they doe it to obtaine a corruptible crowne, but we an incorruptible.
