20
For the kingdom of God is not in talk but in power.
1 Corinthians 4:20 In-Context
18
Some of you have become arrogant, as if I were not coming to you.
19
But I will come to you very soon, if the Lord is willing, and then I will find out not only how these arrogant people are talking, but what power they have.
20
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.
21
What do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod of discipline, or shall I come in love and with a gentle spirit?
