2 Corinthians 10:10-13

10for they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his presence in person is weak and his speech of no account.”

11Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word through letters when we are absent, we also are in action when we are present.

12For we do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they have no understanding.

13But we will not boast beyond limits, but within the limits of the area that God has assigned to us—to reach even as far as you.
