Chap. X.
Against the false Apostles, graunting the infirmitie of his person, he doth notvvithstanding
set out the povver of his Apostleship, 12 reprehending them also for chalenging
to them selues the praise of other mens labours.
1 And I Paul my self beseeche you by the
mildenes and modestie of Christ, vvho in
presence in deede am humble am&obar;g you,
but absent am bold on you.
2 But I beseeche
you, that being present I neede not
be bold by that confidence vvhervvith I
am thought to be bold against some:
vvhich thinke vs as though vve vvalke according to the
flesh.
3 For vvalking in the flesh, vve vvarre not according
to the flesh.
4 For the09Q1187 vveapons of our vvarfare are
not carnal: but mightie to God vnto the destruction of munitions,
destroying counsels,
5 and al loftinesse extolling it
self against the knovvledge of God, and bringing into captiuitie
al vnderstanding vnto the obedience of Christ,
6 and
hauing in a readinesse09Q1188 to reuenge al disobedi&ebar;ce, vvhen your
obedience shal be fulfilled.
7 See the things that are according
to appearance. If any man haue affiance in him self, that
he is Christs: let him thinke this againe vvith him self, that
as he is Christs, so vve also.
8 For and if I should glorie
somevvhat more of our povver, vvhich our Lord hath giuen
vs09Q1189 vnto edification and not to your destruction: I shal not
be ashamed.
9 But that I may not be thought as it vvere to
terrifie you by epistles
10 (for his epistles in deede, say they,
are sore and vehement: but his bodily presence vveake, and
his speache contemptible)
11 let him this thinke that is such a
one, that such as vve are in vvord by epistles, absent: such
also vve are in deede, present.
12 For vve dare not matche or
compare our selues vvith certaine, that commend them
selues: but vve measure ourselues in ourselues, and compare
our selues to our selues.
13 But vve vvil not glorie aboue
our measure: but according to the measure of the rule, vvhich
God hath measured to vs, a measure to reache euen vnto you.
-- --
14 For not, as though vve reached not vnto you, doe vve extend
our selues beyond. For vve are come as farre as to you in
the Gospel of Christ.
15 not glorying aboue measure in
other mens labours: but hauing note hope of your faith increasing,
to be magnified in you according to our rule abo&ubar;dantly,
16 yea vnto those places that are beyond you, to euangelize,
not in an other mans rule, to glorie in those things that
are prepared before.
17 But he that glorieth, let him glorie in
our Lord.
18 For not he that commendeth him self, the same
is approued: but vvhom God commendeth. note
