Elizabeth,
Thank you for going to so much trouble to seek a resolution of
my concern. I appreciate that you looked at so many sources.
>From your reply I gather one may accept God's co-worker as a valid
translation of SUNERGON TOU QEOU.

Carlton,
I am very grateful to you also for your post.
The problem is not really a textual one (as I pointed out), since Wallace
and I both use the UBS GNT (4th Ed. Revised) - Western Text, which Wallace
considers the best text.
My problem is how to translate SUNERGON TOU QEOU.
I considered two translations. However you very astutely consider a third
by writing:
I think that relationship of TOU QEOU should be
with all the fellow workers who belong to God,
Thus I consider you do not disagree with God's co-worker as a possible
valid translation.
