2Corinthians:2:12-3:6




noyes@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, and a door had been opened to me by the Lord,

noyes@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.

noyes@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But thanks be to God, who always exhibiteth us in triumph in Christ, and manifesteth through us the odor of the knowledge of him in every place.

noyes@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God a sweet odor of Christ among those who are being saved, and those who are perishing;

noyes@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to the latter we are the odor of death, producing death; and to the former the odor of life, producing life. And who is sufficient for these things?

noyes@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not as the many, who adulterate the word of God; but as from sincerity, but as from God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

noyes@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning again to recommend ourselves? Or do we need, like some others, letters of recommendation to you, or letters of recommendation from you?

noyes@2Corinthians:3:2 @ Ye are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men;

noyes@2Corinthians:3:3 @ since ye are manifestly shown to be a letter of Christ by means of our service, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tablets of stone, but on fleshly tablets of the heart.

noyes@2Corinthians:3:4 @ And such confidence as this have we through Christ toward God;

noyes@2Corinthians:3:5 @ not that we are able of ourselves to think anything, as from ourselves; but our ability is from God;

noyes@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who also gave us ability to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit; for the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life.
