2 Corinthians 10:1-7

1But I myself, Paul, entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of the Christ, who, as to appearance, [when present] [am] mean among you, but absent am bold towards you;

2but I beseech that present I may not be bold with the confidence with which I think to be daring towards some who think of us as walking according to flesh.

3For walking in flesh, we do not war according to flesh.

4For the arms of our warfare [are] not fleshly, but powerful according to 1God to [the] overthrow of strongholds;

5overthrowing reasonings and every high thing that lifts itself up against the knowledge of 2God, and leading captive every thought into the obedience of the Christ;

6and having in readiness to avenge all disobedience when your obedience shall have been fulfilled.

7Do ye look at what concerns appearance? If any one has confidence in himself that he is of Christ, let him think this again in himself, that even as he [is] of Christ, so also [are] we.
