These are Paul’s last written words to the people at Corinth. He end’s this letter with an exhortation and a call to holy living.
God had a purpose for chosing Israel. That purpose was for Israel to show God’s glory to the other nations. God has a purpose for us as well. Are we displaying God’s glory to others to fulfill that purpose? Learn from Moses instructions to Israel on how to effectively fulfill God’s purpose.
Verse by verse walk through Paul’s second letter to the Corinthian church. Learn why Paul suffered so many things in the ministry Christ gave him and how he felt about it. Learn how to keep a right perspective when you suffer for righteousness sake.
Paul contended with those who called themselves apostles but they really were not. He was afraid for the people who had turned away from the truth that he spoke and turned to those self proclaimed apostles who were robbing them, mistreating them, and smiting them. We find this common denominator today when those who speak the truth of the gospel are held in disrepute by ”itchy earred” christians who have been deceived by the false prophets of today. Check your bishop, pastor, prophet, apostle, preacher, superintendent, evangelist, reverend, and yourselves by this 11th chapter of II Corinthians.
There are various world views and philosophies in the world today. Each one makes a “truth” claim. If you are a a bible believing Christian, how do you argue the case for God? How do you present the true word of God to those that oppose it? This chapter will give an example of good Godly arguments for God.

How important is it to you to know that God dwells within you? Is it important enough that you will sacrifice your body for the Spirit sake? Is it important enough that you will keep your body chaste for the Spirit’s sake? We should all be mindful that we do not live unto ourselves, that God has given us a treasure in these earthen vessels. Listen to Pauls assessment of our responsibility to the indwelling.
