1 Corinthians 9:25

23 Now this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.

Striving for a Crown

24 Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? ^aRun in such a way that you may¹ obtain it.

25 And everyone who competes for the prize¹ is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for ^aan imperishable crown.

26 Therefore I run thus: ^anot with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.

27 ^aBut I discipline my body and ^bbring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become ^cdisqualified.
