GOD'S HELP FOR THE CHURCH AND CHURCH

( I Corinthians
6:24-26 ) [24]Know

for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a
corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
[26]I therefore so run, not as
uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
[27]But I keep under my body, and
bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to
others, I myself should be a castaway.

[13]Till we all come in the unity
of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto
the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
[14]That we henceforth be no more
children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by
the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to
deceive;
[15]But speaking the truth in
love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body
unto the edifying of itself in love.

from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and
receiving, but ye only.
[16]For even in Thessalonica ye
sent once and again unto my necessity.
[17]Not because I desire a gift:
but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
[18]But I have all, and abound: I
am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you,
