1 Corinthians 4:1 ESV
1 Let a man regard us in this manner, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
Other translations use the word ministers, or officers. Here it is translated servants. The Greek word is a derivative of a word meaning a rower. This may remind us they are in the boat with God. Christ is the ark of salvation that allows them to sail upon the waters, no longer slaves, but brothers to Christ , sons of God, and fellow workers in the kingdom of heaven.
