to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
23
Now this I do for the gospel's sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.
24
Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
25
And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.
26
Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.
27
But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.
