  • My Daily Thoughts—Galatians4:12-14

    Galatians 4:12-14 (WEL) Brothers, I plead with you, be as I am, for I am like you. You haven’t hurt me at all. 13 You know that, through the weakness of the flesh, I preached the Gospel to you at first. 14 You didn’t despise or reject me because of the condition which was…

  • My Daily Thoughts—Galatians 2:11-14

    Galatians 2:11-14 (WEL) But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him face to face because he was clearly wrong. 12 Before some men came from James, he ate with the Gentiles, but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, being afraid of those of the circumcision. 13 Then the other Jews acted…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 13:7-10

    2 Corinthians 13:7-10 (WEL) Now I pray to God that you will not do any evil, not for the purpose of our appearing successful, but that you should do what is right even though it looks like we are failures. 8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, only for the truth. 9…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 13:5-6

    2 Corinthians 13:5-6 (WEL) So examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Don’t you, yourselves, know that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you fail the test? 6 I am confident that you will know that we are not failures. V5 So examine yourselves to see if you are in…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 13:1-4

    2 Corinthians 13:1-4 (WEL) This is the third time that I am coming to you. Every spoken word must be substantiated by two or three witnesses. [Deuteronomy 19:15] 2 I have told you before, and I am telling you beforehand, as if I were already there the second time. Now, even though I am…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 12:11-13

    2 Corinthians 12:11-13 (WEL) I have become a fool in boasting (yet, you have forced me) when I should have been commended by you. For in nothing am I inferior to those super apostles, though I am a nobody. 12 Truly, the signs of an apostle were done among you in all perseverance, in…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 12:7-10

    2 Corinthians 12:7-10 (WEL) So that I wouldn’t become arrogant—because of the many revelations—there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to repeatedly torment me, lest I would be arrogant. 8 I pleaded with the Lord about this, three times, so that it might leave me. 9 He…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 12:5-6

    2 Corinthians 12:5-6 (WEL) For even if I wanted to brag, yet I will not brag about myself, but only about my weaknesses. 6 For even if I would like to brag, I’m not going to be a fool, but I will speak the truth, but now I will not, fearing somebody would think…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 11:3-6

    2 Corinthians 11:3-6 (WEL) I fear lest in some way, as the serpent deceived Eve through his trickery, your minds might be corrupted from the open honesty that is in Christ. 4 For if someone comes preaching another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have…

  • My Daily Thoughts—2 Corinthians 10:3-6

    2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (WEL) For even if we do live according to the flesh, we do not make war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons we use for war are not of the flesh, but mighty through God to even pulling down strongholds. 5 We destroy arguments and every high, self-exalted opinion…
