Five times I received from the Jews athirty-nine lashes.Three times I was abeaten with rods, once I was bstoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the deep.I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my acountrymen, dangers from the bGentiles, dangers in the ccity, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among dfalse brethren;I have been in alabor and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in bhunger and thirst, often cwithout food, in cold and dexposure.Apart from such external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for aall the churches.Who is aweak without my being weak? Who is led into sin without my intense concern?If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my aweakness.The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, aHe who is blessed forever, bknows that I am not lying.In aDamascus the ethnarch under Aretas the king was bguarding the city of the Damascenes in order to seize me,

highlighted 2 Corinthians 10:7-15 NASB
For they say, "His letters are weighty and strong, but his personal presence is aunimpressive and bhis speech contemptible."Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when absent, such persons we are also in deed when present.For we are not bold to class or compare ourselves with some of those who acommend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.But we will not boast abeyond our measure, but bwithin the measure of the sphere which God apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even as far as you.For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for awe were the first to come even as far as you in the bgospel of Christ;not boasting abeyond our measure, that is, in bother men's labors, but with the hope that as cyour faith grows, we will be, within our sphere, denlarged even more by you,aYou are looking at things as they are outwardly. bIf anyone is confident in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again within himself, that just as he is Christ's, cso also are we.For even if aI boast somewhat further about our bauthority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I will not be put to shame,for I do not wish to seem as if I would terrify you by my letters.

"aFor there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit."aFor each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush."aThe good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; bfor his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.

highlighted Luke 6:46-49 NASB
"aWhy do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?"aEveryone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like:he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built."But the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation; and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the ruin of that house was great."

And He also spoke a parable to them: "aA blind man cannot guide a blind man, can he? Will they not both fall into a pit?"aA pupil is not above his teacher; but everyone, after he has been fully trained, will be like his teacher."Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?"Or how can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.

And turning His gaze toward His disciples, He began to say, "aBlessed are you who are poor, for byours is the kingdom of God."Blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh."aBlessed are you when men hate you, and bostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man."Be glad in that day and aleap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven. For bin the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets."But woe to ayou who are rich, for byou are receiving your comfort in full."Woe to you who are well-fed now, for you shall be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep."Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the afalse prophets in the same way."But I say to you who hear, alove your enemies, do good to those who hate you,bless those who curse you, apray for those who mistreat you."aWhoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either."Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back."aTreat others the same way you want them to treat you."aIf you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them."If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same."aIf you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount."But alove your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be bsons of cthe Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.
