1 Corinthians 9:19 in Context — 1 Corinthians 9
17 Porque se eu faço de boa mente, tenho recompensa; mas se eu fizer de má vontade, a responsabilidade me é confiada.
18 Então que recompensa tenho? Que evangelizando, proponha o Evangelho de Cristo sem receber nada de volta, para não abusar do meu poder no Evangelho.
19 Porque, estando eu livre de todos, me fiz servo de todos, para ganhar [ainda] mais.
20 E me fiz como judeu para os judeus, para ganhar aos judeus; como que estivesse debaixo da Lei, para os que estão debaixo da Lei, para ganhar aos que estão debaixo da Lei.
21 Ao que estão sem Lei, como se estivesse sem Lei ( [porém] não estando sem Lei para com Deus; mas para com Cristo debaixo da Lei), para ganhar os que estão sem Lei.
