Will

After I go through Macedonia, however, I will come to you; for I will be going through Macedonia.

Perhaps I will stay with you awhile, or even spend the winter, so that you can help me on my journey, wherever I go.

But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,

Now about our brother Apollos: I strongly urged him to go to you with the brothers. He was not at all inclined to go now, but he will go when he has the opportunity.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:

And our hope for you is sure, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you will share in our comfort.

He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. In Him we have placed our hope that He will yet again deliver us,

He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. In Him we have placed our hope that He will yet again deliver us,

…as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the favor shown us in answer to their prayers.

For we do not write you anything that is beyond your ability to read and understand. And I hope that you will understand us completely,

…as you have already understood us in part, that you may boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of our Lord Jesus.

So instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

…will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?

…knowing that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.

…because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.

What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.”

“Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”

And: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

And: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

And not only did they do as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then to us, through the will of God.

At the present time, your surplus will meet their need, so that in turn their surplus will meet your need. This way there will be equality.

But I am sending the brothers in order that our boasting about you in this matter should not prove empty, but that you will be prepared, just as I said.

So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you beforehand and make arrangements for the generous gift you had promised. This way, your gift will be prepared generously and not begrudgingly.

Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your store of seed and will increase the harvest of your righteousness.

Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your store of seed and will increase the harvest of your righteousness.

You will be enriched in every way to be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will produce thanksgiving to God.

You will be enriched in every way to be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will produce thanksgiving to God.

Because of the proof this ministry provides, the saints will glorify God for your obedient confession of the gospel of Christ, and for the generosity of your contribution to them and to all the others.

And their prayers for you will express their affection for you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you.

And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, as soon as your obedience is complete.

For even if I boast somewhat excessively about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than tearing you down, I will not be ashamed.

Such people should consider that what we are in our letters when absent, we will be in our actions when present.

We, however, will not boast beyond our limits, but only within the field of influence that God has assigned to us—a field that reaches even to you.

Neither do we boast beyond our limits in the labors of others. But we hope that as your faith increases, our area of influence among you will greatly increase as well,

…so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you. Then we will not be boasting in the work already done in another man’s territory.

I hope you will put up with a little of my foolishness, but you are already doing that.

And when I was with you and in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my needs. I have refrained from being a burden to you in any way, and I will continue to do so.

As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia.

But I will keep on doing what I am doing, in order to undercut those who want an opportunity to be regarded as our equals in the things of which they boast.

It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their actions.

Since many are boasting according to the flesh, I too will boast.

If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.

I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to gain, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord.

I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.

I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.

Even if I wanted to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me,

But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

See, I am ready to come to you a third time, and I will not be a burden, because I am not seeking your possessions, but you. For children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.

And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?

And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?

I 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 their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery.

I 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 their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery.

I already warned you the second time I was with you. So now in my absence I warn those who sinned earlier and everyone else: If I return, I will not spare anyone,

For He was indeed crucified in weakness, yet He lives by God’s power. For we are also weak in Him, yet by God’s power we will live with Him concerning you.

And I hope you will realize that we have not failed the test.

Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not that we will appear to have stood the test, but that you will do what is right, even if we appear to have failed.

Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not that we will appear to have stood the test, but that you will do what is right, even if we appear to have failed.

Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not that we will appear to have stood the test, but that you will do what is right, even if we appear to have failed.

This is why I write these things while absent, so that when I am present I will not need to be severe in my use of the authority that the Lord gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down.

Finally, brothers, rejoice! Aim for perfect harmony, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

…who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,

…know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”

Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”

The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”

But what does the Scripture say? “Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”

Take notice: I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

…and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Each one should test his own work. Then he will have reason to boast in himself alone, and not in someone else.

Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.

The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus:

He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,

And He has made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ

In Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will,

In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,

…will have power, together with all the saints, to comprehend the length and width and height and depth

Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.

So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.

“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”

And do this not only to please them while they are watching, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.

Serve with good will, as to the Lord and not to men,

…because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.
