1 Corinthians 4:14-16

New Century Version

¹⁴ I am not trying to make you feel ashamed. I am writing this to give you a warning as my own dear children. ¹⁵ For though you may have ten thousand teachers in Christ, you do not have many fathers. Through the Good News I became your father in Christ Jesus, ¹⁶ so I beg you, please follow my example.
