45:015:017 I have therefore whereof I may glory through
Jesus Christ in
those
things which pertain to God.
45:015:018 For I will not dare to speak of any of
those things which
Christ
hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient,
by
word and deed,
45:015:019 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the
power of the Spirit
of
God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto
Illyricum,
I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
45:015:020 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel,
not where Christ
was
named, lest I should build upon another man’s
foundation:
45:015:021 But as it is written, To whom he was not
spoken of, they shall
see:
and they that have not heard shall understand.
45:015:022 For which cause also I have been much hindered
from coming to
you.
45:015:023 But now having no more place in these parts,
and having a
great
desire these many years to come unto you;
45:015:024 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain,
I will come to you:
for
I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought
on my
way
thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with
your
company.
45:015:025 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.
45:015:026 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and
Achaia to make a
certain
contribution for the poor saints which are at
Jerusalem.
45:015:027 It hath pleased them verily; and their
debtors they are. For
if
the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual
things,
their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal
things.
45:015:028 When therefore I have performed this, and
have sealed to them
this
fruit, I will come by you into Spain.
45:015:029 And I am sure that, when I come unto you,
I shall come in the
fulness
of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
45:015:030 Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord
Jesus Christ’s sake,
and
for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together
with
me
in your prayers to God for me;
45:015:031 That I may be delivered from them that
do not believe in
Judaea;
and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may
be
accepted
of the saints;
45:015:032 That I may come unto you with joy by the
will of God, and may
with
you be refreshed.
45:015:033 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
45:016:001 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which
is a servant of the
church
which is at Cenchrea:
45:016:002 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh
saints, and that
ye
assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of
you: for
she
hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.
