New Testament

1 Corinthians 9:1-5 New Living Translation (NLT)

1. Am I not as free as anyone else? Am I not an apostle? Haven’t I seen Jesus our Lord with my own eyes? Isn’t it because of my work that you belong to the Lord?

2. Even if others think I am not an apostle, I certainly am to you. You yourselves are proof that I am the Lord’s apostle.

3. This is my answer to those who question my authority.

4. Don’t we have the right to live in your homes and share your meals?

5. Don’t we have the right to bring a believing wife with us as the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers do, and as Peter does?
