* We have this ministry to do , even as we obtained mercy , we do not lose heart . * We have renounced the hidden things of shame . And we do not walk in craftiness and deceit . We do not adulterate the word of God . But by the manifestation of the truth we commend ourselves to every man 's conscience in the sight of God . * If our gospel is veiled , it is veiled to those who perish . * The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers that the light of the good news of the glory of Christ , who is the image of God , should not shine on them . * We do not preach about ourselves , but about Christ Jesus as Lord . We are your servants for Jesus ' sake . * God said : Light will shine out of darkness . He shined in our hearts . He gave the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face ( of Jesus Christ . * We have this treasure in earthen vessels that the power beyond what is normal may be from God , and not from ourselves . * We are pressed on every side , but not crushed . We are perplexed yet not to despair . * We are persecuted , yet not forsaken . We are struck down , yet not destroyed . * We always carry in the body the death of Jesus , that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our body . * For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus ' sake , that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our mortal flesh . * So then death works in us , but life in you . * But having the same spirit of faith , according to that which is written , I believe , and therefore I speak . We also believe , and therefore we also speak . * We know that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus , and will present us with you . * All things are for your sakes , that the grace , being multiplied through the many , may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God . * We do not give up ! Though our outward man is decaying , yet our inward man is renewed day by day . * Our light affliction is for the moment . It works more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory for us . * We do not look at the things that are seen , but at the things that are not seen . For the things that are seen are temporal . But the things that are not seen are eternal .
