2 Corinthians 2
Last Updated: October 10, 2026But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of...
2 Corinthians 3
Last Updated: October 10, 2026Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of...
2 Corinthians 4
Last Updated: October 10, 2026Therefore, seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we don’t faint.But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.Even if our Good News...
2 Corinthians 5
Last Updated: October 10, 2026For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,if indeed being clothed, we will not be found naked.For...

Last Updated: October 10, 2026Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.Open your hearts to us.

Last Updated: October 10, 2026Moreover, adelphoi (G80), we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,how in a severe ordeal of affliction, the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their generosity.For according to their power, I testify, yes and beyond their power, they...
2 Corinthians 9
Last Updated: October 10, 2026It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the saints,for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to those of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for the past year. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.But I have sent the adelphoi (G80)...
2 Corinthians 10
Last Updated: October 10, 2026Now I Paul, myself, entreat you by the humility and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.Yes, I beg you that I may not, when present, show courage with the confidence with which I intend to be bold against some, who consider us...
2 Corinthians 11
Last Updated: October 10, 2026I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.But I am afraid that somehow, as the...
2 Corinthians 12
Last Updated: October 10, 2026It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast, but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.I know a man in Christ who was caught up into the third heaven fourteen years ago—whether in the body, I don’t know, or whether out of the body, I don’t know; God knows.I know such...
2 Corinthians 13
Last Updated: October 10, 2026This is the third time I am coming to you. “At the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.”I have warned previously, and I warn again, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, I write to those who have sinned before now and to all the...
