2Cor 4:5 | RWP | e4.org | For we preach not ourselves ( ου γαρ εαυτους κηρυσσομεν ). Surely as poor and disgusting a topic as a preacher can find. But Christ Jesus as Lord ( αλλα Χριστον Ιησουν Κυριον ). Κυριον is predicate accusative in apposition. As your servants for Jesus' sake ( δουλους υμων δια Ιησουν ). Your bond-slave for the sake of Jesus. This is the sufficient reason for any preacher's sacrifice, "for Jesus' sake."
