2 Corinthians 1:23-25
2 Corinthians 1: 23 to 25
23 I tell you this, and I ask God to be my witness that this is true: The reason I did not come back to Corinth was that I did not want to punish or hurt you.
24 I do not mean that we are trying to control your faith. You are strong in faith. But we are workers with you for your own happiness.
