kjv 2Corinthians:10:1-12 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ ,
who in presence am base among you ,
but being absent am bold toward you :
*
But I beseech you ,
that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence ,
wherewith I think to be bold against some ,
which think of us as if we walked according to the flesh .
*
For though we walk in the flesh ,
we do not war after the flesh :
* (
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal ,
but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds ;)
*
Casting down imaginations ,
and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God ,
and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ ;
*
And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience ,
when your obedience is fulfilled .
*
Do ye look on things after the outward appearance ?
If any man trust to himself that he is Christ '
s ,
let him of himself think this again ,
that ,
as he is Christ '
s ,
even so are we Christ '
s .
*
For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority ,
which the Lord hath given us for edification ,
and not for your destruction ,
I should not be ashamed :
*
That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters .
*
For his letters ,
say they ,
are weighty and powerful ;
but his bodily presence is weak ,
and his speech contemptible .
*
Let such an one think this ,
that ,
such as we are in word by letters when we are absent ,
such will we be also in deed when we are present .
*
For we dare not make ourselves of the number ,
or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves :
but they measuring themselves by themselves ,
and comparing themselves among themselves ,
are not wise .
