2 Corinthians 6:1-8

1And working together with him we entreat also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain

2(for he saith, At an acceptable time I hearkened unto thee, And in a day of salvation did I succour thee: behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation):

3giving no occasion of stumbling in anything, that our ministration be not blamed;

4but in everything commending ourselves, as ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

5in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

6in pureness, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in kindness, in the Holy Ghost, in love unfeigned,

7in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8by glory and dishonour, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;
