2Corinthians 10




rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I, Paul, urge you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I who am meek in your presence, but bold when I am absent from you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I urge you, that when I am present I may not be bold with the confidence with which I expect to be bold against some, who think that we walk according to the flesh.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but are mighty before God for the pulling down of strongholds.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We cast down arguments, and every lofty thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:6 @ And we have a readiness to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is complete.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do you look on things according to their outward appearance? If any man trusts that he is Christ's, let him remind himself, that, as he is Christ's, so are we.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For though I should boast somewhat freely of our authority, which the Lord has given us for building you up, and not for your destruction, I shall not be put to shame.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:9 @ I do not wish to seem to be frightening you by my letters.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For his letters, they say, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such people realize this, that, the way we are in word by letters when we are absent, so we will also be in deeds when we are present.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:12 @ We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves: but in measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, they are not wise.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast of things without limit, but will keep within the field which God has assigned to us, a field which reaches even to you.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we do not stretch beyond our limit, as though we had not reached to you: for we were the first to come as far as to you with the gospel of Christ:

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast of things without limit, that is, of other men's labours; but we have hope, when your faith has increased, that our field among you shall be greatly enlarged,

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:16 @ So we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast of work already done in another man's field.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:17 @ But he who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.

rkjnt@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not he who commends himself who is approved, but he whom the Lord commends.
