1 Corinthians 9:25 in context
- 23Now I do this for the sake of the Good News, that I may be a joint partaker of it.
- 24Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win.
- 25Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
- 26I therefore run like that, not aimlessly. I fight like that, not beating the air,
- 27but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
