1. Korinterbrev 16,12

Apollos

10 Nå, hvis Timoteus kommer, sørg for at han ikke har noe å frykte mens han er hos dere, for han gjør Herrens arbeid, slik som jeg også gjør.

11 Så se ikke ned på ham. Men send ham videre i fred, slik at han kan komme til meg; for jeg forventer ham med brødrene.

Når det gjelder vår bror Apollos, oppmuntret jeg ham sterkt til å komme til dere med brødrene; og det var slett ikke hans ønske å komme nå, men han vil komme når han har anledning.

13 Vær våkne, stå faste i troen, vær modige, vær sterke.

14 Sørg for at alt dere gjør, gjøres i kjærlighet.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
