2 Corinthians 13:1-4

1This is the third time I am coming to you. Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.

2I gave a warning when I was present the second time, and now I give a warning while I am absent to those who sinned before and to all the rest: If I come again, I will not be lenient,

3since you seek proof of Christ speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but powerful among you.

4For he was crucified in weakness, but he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but in dealing with you we will live with him by God’s power.
