1 CORINTHIANS 4:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.”
Therefore I urge you to imitate me — 'imitate' (mimiētai) means to pattern yourself after. Not cult-of-personality imitation but imitation of apostolic virtue: weakness accepted, hardship endured, enemies blessed, Christ exalted. The Corinthians should imitate Paul's fidelity and suffering-love, not his status or rhetoric.
