riversident@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ fourteen years ago \'97 whether in the body I know not, or out of the body I know not; God knows \'97 such a man caught up to the third heaven.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Even if I choose to boast I shall not be foolish, for I shall speak the truth. But I guard myself that no one may think of me beyond what he sees me to be, or hears from me,
riversident@2Corinthians:12:7 @ and because of the surpassing nature of the revelations. For this reason, that I should not be puffed up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan, to torment me, so that I should not be puffed up.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:9 @ But he has said to me, Most gladly then will I boast in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may abide upon me.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I rejoice in weaknesses, in rough treatment, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become foolish; you made me. For I ought to have been recommended by you. For in nothing have I been inferior to the most eminent apostles, even though I am nothing.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:13 @ What is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the churches except that I was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Now this third time I am ready to come to you, and I shall not be a burden to you. For I am not seeking yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up money for the parents, but the parents for the children.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I begged Titus to go, and I sent along with him the brother. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit and walk in the same steps?
riversident@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Are you thinking all this while that we are defending ourselves to you? We are speaking before God in Christ. All this, beloved, is to build you up.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I am afraid that when I come I shall not find you such as I wish, and I myself may not be found by you such as you wish. I am afraid that there may be strife, jealousy, anger, rivalry, slanders, whisperings, conceit, disorders.
riversident@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I am afraid that when I come again my God may humble me in your presence, and that I shall grieve over many of those who have been long sinning and have not repented of the impurity and unchastity and sensuality which they have practiced.
