2nd Corinthians Overview (Part 2)
Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
Paul's message to the Corinthians in 2nd Corinthians emphasizes that ministry is not solely defined by structural or corporate authority, but rather by a real relationship with God and the body of Christ. He explains that the weakness and scars of ministry are evidence of God's power, urging Christians to trust in grace and not to boast in their works. Paul also addresses his own struggles with infirmity and persecution, emphasizing the need for fear of God and perseverance in the face of adversity.
