1 Corinthians 4:14-16

International Standard Version

Fatherly Advice

¹⁴ I’m not writing this to make you feel ashamed, but to warn you as my dear children. ¹⁵ You may have 10,000 mentors who work for the Messiah,^[a] but not many fathers. For in the Messiah^[b] Jesus I became your father through the gospel. ¹⁶ So I urge you to imitate me.
