Description
001:001 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God- and our brother Timothy: To the Church of God in Corinth, with all God’s people throughout Greece. 001:002 May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 001:003 Heartfelt thanks be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ- the Father who is full of compassion and the God who gives all comfort. 001:004 He comforts us in our every affliction so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction by means of the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 001:005 For just as we have more than our share of suffering for the Christ, so also through the Christ we have more than our share of comfort. 001:006 But if, on the one hand, we are enduring affliction, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if, on the other hand, we are receiving comfort, it is for your comfort which is produced within you through your patient fortitude under the same sufferings as those which we also are enduring. 001:007 And our hope for you is stedfast; for we know that as you are partners with us in the sufferings, so you are also partners in the comfort. 001:008 For as for our troubles which came upon us in the province of Asia, we would have you know, brethren, that we were exceedingly weighed down, and felt overwhelmed, so that we renounced all hope even of life. 001:009 Nay, we had, as we still have, the sentence of death within our own selves, in order that our confidence may repose, not on ourselves, but on God who raised the dead to life. 001:010 He it is who rescued us from so imminent a death, and will do so again; and we have a firm hope in Him that He will also rescue us in all the future,
