Using none of these things

1 Corinthians 10:1-14

Paul’s right to apostolic ministerial support, established by seven reasons:

1. Paul’s apostolic relationship to the Corinthians, verses 1-3
2. The example of others, verses 4-6
3. The principle of common right, verse 74
4. The teaching of Scripture, verses 8-10
5. The value of things, verse 11
6. The practice of the Corinthians, verse 12
7. The ordinance of the Lord, verse 13-14

Nevertheless, Paul had a settled policy to “make the gospel of Christ without charge” (verse 18)

“we have not used this power” verse 12

“I have used none of these things” verse 15
