2 Corinthians 11:7-13

7Was I wrong when I humbled myself and honored you by preaching God’s Good News to you without expecting anything in return?

8I “robbed” other churches by accepting their contributions so I could serve you at no cost.

9And when I was with you and didn’t have enough to live on, I did not become a financial burden to anyone. For the brothers who came from Macedonia brought me all that I needed. I have never been a burden to you, and I never will be.

10As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, no one in all of Greece will ever stop me from boasting about this.

11Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows that I do.

12But I will continue doing what I have always done. This will undercut those who are looking for an opportunity to boast that their work is just like ours.

13These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ.
