Paul’s
Concern for the Corinthians
11I have made a
fool of myself, but you drove me to it. I ought to have been commended by you,
for I am not in the least inferior to the “super-apostles,” even though I am nothing. 12I
persevered in demonstrating among you the marks of a true apostle, including
signs, wonders and miracles. 13How were you inferior to the other
churches, except that I was never a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!
14Now I am ready
to visit you for the third time, and I will not be a burden to you, because
what I want is not your possessions but you. After all, children should not
have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children. 15So
I will very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well.
If I love you more, will you love me less? 16Be that as it may, I
have not been a burden to you. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by
trickery! 17Did I exploit you through any of the men I sent to you? 18I
urged Titus to go to you and I sent our brother with him. Titus did not exploit
you, did he? Did we not walk in the same footsteps by the same Spirit?
19Have you been
thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been
speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear
friends, is for your strengthening. 20For I am afraid that when I
come I may not find you as I want you to be, and you may not find me as you
want me to be. I fear that there may be discord, jealousy, fits of rage,
selfish ambition, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder. 21I am
afraid that when I come again my God will humble me before you, and I will be grieved
over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of the impurity, sexual
sin and debauchery in which they have indulged.
Final
Warnings
1This will be my
third visit to you. “Every matter must be established by the testimony of two
or three witnesses.” 2I already gave you a warning when
I was with you the second time. I now repeat it while absent: On my return I
will not spare those who sinned earlier or any of the others, 3since
you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak in
dealing with you, but is powerful among you. 4For to be sure, he was
crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God’s power. Likewise, we are weak in
him, yet by God’s power we will live with him in our dealing with you.
5Examine
yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not
realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test? 6And
I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test. 7Now
we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not so that people will see
that we have stood the test but so that you will do what is right even though
we may seem to have failed. 8For we cannot do anything against the
truth, but only for the truth. 9We are glad whenever we are weak but
you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be fully restored. 10This
is why I write these things when I am absent, that when I come I may not have
to be harsh in my use of authority—the authority the Lord gave me for building
you up, not for tearing you down.
