1 Corinthians 4:18-21 Now some have become arrogant, as though I were not coming to you.

Common⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ Now some have become arrogant, as though I were not coming to you. ¹⁹ But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out, not the words of these arrogant people, but their power. ²⁰ For the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power. ²¹ What do you desire? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love and a spirit of gentleness?
