2 Corinthians
2 Corinthians 6 ©
1Paul entreateth the Corinthians not to frustrate God's grace: 3setting forth his own inoffensive, painful, and patient, demeanour in the discharge of his ministry: 11of which he telleth them he spake more freely out of the great love he bare them; 13challenging the same affection from them in return. 14He dissuadeth from any intimate connections with unbelievers. 16Christians are the temples of the living God.
But ein all things 1approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
fIn stripes, in imprisonments, 2in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
kBy honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
mAs sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; nas having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
Ye are not *straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own *bowels.
Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto pmy children,) be ye also enlarged.
Be ye not qunequally yoked together with unbelievers: rfor what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and swhat communion hath light with darkness?
And twhat concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for uye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, vI will dwell in them, and walk in them; and wI will be their God, and they shall be my people.
