2Corinthians:11:1-15
nasb@2Corinthians:11:1 @I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness; but indeed you are bearing with me.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:2 @For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy; for I betrothed you to one husband, so that to Christ I might present you as a pure virgin.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:3 @But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:4 @For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:5 @For I consider myself not in the least inferior to the most eminent apostles.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:6 @But even if I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not so in knowledge; in fact, in every way we have made this evident to you in all things.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:7 @Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?
nasb@2Corinthians:11:8 @I robbed other churches by taking wages from them to serve you;
nasb@2Corinthians:11:9 @and when I was present with you and was in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for when the brethren came from Macedonia they fully supplied my need, and in everything I kept myself from being a burden to you, and will continue to do so.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:10 @As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:11 @Why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
nasb@2Corinthians:11:12 @But what I am doing I will continue to do, so that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the matter about which they are boasting.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:13 @For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:14 @No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
nasb@2Corinthians:11:15 @Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.
