1 Corinthians 3:21-22

21So alet no one boast in men. For ball things are yours, 22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the futureall are yours,

1 Corinthians 4:8-13

8Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! Without us you have become kings! And would that you did reign, so that we might share the rule with you! 9For I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, clike men sentenced to death, because we dhave become a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men. 10 eWe are fools for Christ’s sake, but fyou are wise in Christ. gWe are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute. 11To the present hour hwe hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and ibuffeted and jhomeless, 12and we klabor, working with our own hands. lWhen reviled, we bless; mwhen persecuted, we endure; 13when slandered, we entreat. nWe have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, othe refuse of all things.

2 Corinthians 4:12

12So pdeath is at work in us, but life in you.
