1 Corinthians 16
16
1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye. 2Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. 3And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem: 4and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me. 5But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia; 6but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I go. 7For I do not wish to see you now by the way; for I hope to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit. 8But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost; 9for a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do: 11let no man therefore despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come unto me: for I expect him with the brethren. 12But as touching Apollos the brother, I besought him much to come unto you with the brethren: and it was not at all his will to come now; but he will come when he shall have opportunity.
13Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. 14Let all that ye do be done in love.
15Now I beseech you, brethren (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints), 16that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to every one that helpeth in the work and laboreth. 17And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they supplied. 18For they refreshed my spirit and yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
19The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 20All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand. 22If any man loveth not the Lord, let him be anathema. Maranatha. 23The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Acts 24.17. Now concerning the contribution for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do. 2#Acts 20.7; 2 Cor 9.4-5. On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that contributions need not be made when I come. 3#2 Cor 8.18-19. And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem. 4If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.

Rom 15.26; Acts 19.21.

For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits. 8#Acts 18.19. But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost, 9#Acts 19.9. for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

Acts 16.1. When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am. 11So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

Acts 18.24. As for our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will#16.12 Or God's will for him to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

Ps 31.24; Eph 6.10. Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. 14Let all that you do be done in love.
15Now, brethren, you know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints; 16I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer. 17I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have made up for your absence; 18for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.
