1 Corinthians 9:1

In the present chapter Paul asserts his personal rights and privileges as an apostle, verses 1Co 9:1-14; and then proceeds to show how he has willingly given them up for Christ's sake, therein proposing his own example for the imitation of those among the Corinthians who were disposed to insist on the use of their Christian liberty without regard to the consciences of the weak.

Am I not free? as much at liberty as the other apostles in regard to the rights and privileges of my office.

Seen Jesus Christ; seen him personally, and received from him my commission as an apostle. He mentions this to show that he is not behind the other apostles in regard to his apostolic office.

My work; converted by my ministry.
