”As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.“
1 Corinthians 16:12 KJV
Paul says, ”As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.“ Now we are the Body of Christ and each one has a part in it. We are empowered by the same Spirit Who apportions to each one individually as He wills. We are given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good of the Body of Christ and we don’t seek our own but rather each other’s well being. As every one has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. Paul taught us that by example when he referred to Apollos coming to minister in the church at Corinth. We do not compete with one another in the Body of Christ, the Church, we all serve Christ in the unity of the Spirit. Amen!
