In this Bible study on 1 Corinthians 16:13–24, Fr. Gabriel reflects on Paul’s closing words to the Corinthians—words filled with encouragement, gratitude, and love. Paul urges the Church to stand firm in the faith, be brave and strong, and to do everything in love. He names faithful servants like Stephanas and Aquila and Priscilla, reminding the community to honor those who labor for the Church. Fr. Gabriel ties these verses to early Christian watchfulness, the practical tools of spiritual life, and the call to live in the present moment with readiness for the Lord’s return. He closes with Paul’s parting words: “My love be with you all in Christ Jesus.”
