He truly had love for people. He was patient with them. Perhaps because he himself had once gone through a difficult and messy past, he was transformed. Maybe that experience taught him to love others with greater compassion. Thank you very much for sharing hard lesson

I never thought of it that way. That's very insightful.

2 Corinthian 2:15-16 is one of my favourite passages; it's so beautifully written and full of depth.

Also, earlier this week, I was led to Acts 18. so this feels like a gentle confirmation of what He's highlighting to me. Thank you for sharing this!

That's really great sister! And getting ready to post part 4 of the series which describes Paul's opponents that he called the super apostles. Ultimately, Paul compares them to true servants of Jesus Christ and what they are like. 2 Corinthians is so powerful. And yes, acts 18. It really gives insight into how Paul was willing to live among the Corinthian believers so that the church might be truly established. This is drawn from a seminar that I do concerning our hearts and the reason we do ministry.
