1 Corinthians 9:25 in Context — 1 Corinthians 9
23 E isto eu faço por causa do Evangelho, para que eu também dele seja participante.
24 Não sabeis vós que os que correm nas competições, realmente todos correm, mas somente um leva o prêmio? Correi de tal maneira, que o alcanceis.
25 E todo aquele que luta, tenha domínio próprio sobre tudo. Pois aqueles fazem para receber uma coroa perecível, porém nós [para] uma que não perece.
26 Então assim eu corro, não como [para um lugar] incerto; assim luto, não como que dando socos no ar.
27 Em vez disso, eu subjugo meu corpo, e o reduzo à servidão, para que quando estiver pregando para os outros, eu mesmo não seja reprovado.
