1 Corinthians 9:25 in context
- 23And I do all things for the gospel’s sake, that I may be a joint partaker thereof.
- 24Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain.
- 25And every man that striveth in the games exerciseth self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
- 26I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air:
- 27but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
