Scripture Text (NRSV)
4:1 Think of us in this way, as servants of Christ and stewards of God's mysteries.
4:2 Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.
4:3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. I do not even judge myself.
4:4 I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.
4:5 Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive commendation from God.
