PAUL’S SUFFERINGS AS AN APOSTLE

Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.

PAUL AND THE FALSE APOSTLES

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

ENLARGING ONE’S SPHERE OF INFLUENCE

For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ

How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.
