akjv 2Corinthians:13:1-10 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
This is the third time I am coming to you .
In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established .
*
I told you before ,
and foretell you ,
as if I were present ,
the second time ;
and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned ,
and to all other ,
that ,
if I come again ,
I will not spare :
*
Since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me ,
which to you-ward is not weak ,
but is mighty in you .
*
For though he was crucified through weakness ,
yet he lives by the power of God .
For we also are weak in him ,
but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you .
*
Examine yourselves ,
whether you be in the faith ;
prove your own selves .
Know you not your own selves ,
how that Jesus Christ is in you ,
except you be reprobates ?
*
But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates .
*
Now I pray to God that you do no evil ;
not that we should appear approved ,
but that you should do that which is honest ,
though we be as reprobates .
*
For we can do nothing against the truth ,
but for the truth .
*
For we are glad ,
when we are weak ,
and you are strong :
and this also we wish ,
even your perfection .
*
Therefore I write these things being absent ,
lest being present I should use sharpness ,
according to the power which the Lord has given me to edification ,
and not to destruction .
