006:001

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

006:002

Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed

006:003

But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses

006:004

In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings

006:005

By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned

006:006

By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left

006:007

By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true

006:008

As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed

006:009

As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things

006:010

O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged

006:011

Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels

006:012

Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged

006:013

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness

006:014

And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel

006:015

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people

006:016

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you

006:017

And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty
