1 Corinthians 4:15 in Context — 1 Corinthians 4

13 Somos blasfemados, y rogamos: hemos venido á ser como la hez del mundo, el desecho de todos hasta ahora.

14 No escribo esto para avergonzaros: mas amonéstoos como á mis hijos amados.

15 Porque aunque tengáis diez mil ayos en Cristo, no [tendréis] muchos padres; que en Cristo Jesús yo os engendré por el evangelio.

16 Por tanto, os ruego que me imitéis.

17 Por lo cual os he enviado á Timoteo, que es mi hijo amado y fiel en el Señor, el cual os amonestará de mis caminos cuáles sean en Cristo, de la manera que enseño en todas partes en todas las iglesias.
