2 Corinthians 10:1-8

1NowG1161 byG1223 theG3588 mildnessG4240 andG2532 gentlenessG1932 of ChristG5547, I appealG3870G846 to youG4771—IG1473, PaulG3972, whoG3739 am humbleG5011 when face to faceG2596G4383 withG1722 youG4771, butG1161 boldG2292 when awayG548. 2I begG1189 you thatG3588 when I comeG3918 I may not need to beG3361G2292 as boldG3588G4006G5111 asG3739 I expectG3049 towardG1909 those whoG3588 presume thatG3049 weG1473 liveG4043 according toG2596 the fleshG4561.

3ForG1063 though we liveG4043 inG1722 the fleshG4561, we do not wage warG3756G4754 according toG2596 the fleshG4561. 4TheG3588 weaponsG3696 ofG3588 ourG1473 warfareG4752 are notG3756 the weapons of the fleshG4559. InsteadG235, they have divineG2316 powerG1415 toG4314 demolishG2506 strongholdsG3794. 5We demolishG2507 argumentsG3053 andG2532 everyG3956 presumptionG5313 set upG1869 againstG2596 theG3588 knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316; andG2532 we take captiveG163 everyG3956 thoughtG3540 toG1519 make it obedientG5218 to ChristG5547. 6AndG2532 weG1722 will beG2192 readyG2092 to punishG1556 everyG3956 act of disobedienceG3876, as soon asG3752 yourG4771 obedienceG5218 is completeG4137.

7You are lookingG991 atG2596 outward appearancesG4383. IfG1487 anyoneG5100 is confidentG3982 that heG1438 belongs toG1510 ChristG5547, he should remindG3049G3825 himselfG1909G1438 thatG3754 weG1473 belong to Christ justG2532 as much asG2531 heG846 does. 8ForG1063 evenG5037 ifG1437 I boastG2744 somewhatG5100 excessivelyG4053 aboutG4012 theG3588 authorityG1849 theG3588 LordG2962 gaveG1325 usG1473 forG1519 building you upG3619 rather thanG2532G3756 tearing you downG2506G4771, I will not be ashamedG3756G153.
