Therefore he propounds himself for an example, and that in a matter almost necessary. And yet he speaks of both, but first of his own person.

If I had rather that the Gospel should be evil spoken of, than that I should not require my wages, then would it appear that I took these pains not so much for the Gospel's sake, as for my gains and advantages. But I say, this would not be to use, but rather to abuse my right and liberty: therefore not only in this thing, but also in all others (as much as I could) I am made all things to all men, that I might win them to Christ, and might together with them be won to Christ.(:note) neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for [it were] better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.

Now, moreover and besides that these things are fitly spoken against those who frequented idol's feasts, the same also seems to be alleged to this end and purpose, because many men think that those things are not of such great weight that God will be angry with them if they use them.

On the other side the inferior sort envied the better, and went about to make a departure, so that all the body was as it were scatted and rent in pieces. So then, going about to remedy these abuses he wills them first to consider diligently that they have not these gifts of themselves, but from the free grace and liberality of God, to whose glory they ought to bestow them all.(:note) concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you Ignorant to what purpose these gifts are given to you. ignorant.
