1 Corinthians 16:13

He shows that they ought to make their hopes of salvation to depend not on Apollos or any other teacher; that it rests with themselves. "Watch ye": for ye are slumbering. "Stand": for ye are like men tottering. "Quit you like men; be strong": for ye are effeminate (I Corinthians 16:14). "Let all your things be done with charity" (I Corinthians 8:1; I Corinthians 13:1): not with strifes as at present [CHRYSOSTOM]. "In the faith" which was assailed by some (I Corinthians 15:1-2, I Corinthians 15:12-17).
