1 Corinthians 9:22 — Meaning and Application

And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;

To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.

To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all {men}, that I might by all means save some.

And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with {you}.

Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
