1 Corinthians 16:1 
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. 


16:1. At this appropriate juncture, Paul took up the Corinthian inquiry (cf. 7:1) concerning a proposed collection for God’s people (cf. 1:2) in Jerusalem (15:3). The Corinthians had apparently heard about the collection through members of the Galatian churches, the oldest of all the Pauline-planted churches (Acts 13:14-14:23) in Derbe, Lystra, Iconium, and Pisidian Antioch. Paul’s instruction to them was repeated to the Corinthians.
