Their Ministry Commended: BIBLE, New American Standard Bible == BIBLE-CENTRE

2 Corinthians, Chapter 6

¹ And working together with Him, we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain— ² for He says,“AT THE ACCEPTABLE TIME I LISTENED TO YOU,
AND ON THE DAY OF SALVATION I HELPED YOU.”

Behold, now is “THE ACCEPTABLE TIME,” behold, now is “THE DAY OF SALVATION”— ³ giving no cause for offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited, ⁴ but in everything commending ourselves as^aservants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses, ⁵ in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in hunger, ⁶ in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love, ⁷ in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left, ⁸ by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; regarded as deceivers and yet true; ⁹ as unknown^byet well-known, as dying^cyet behold, we live; as^dpunished^eyet not put to death, ¹⁰ as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing^fyet possessing all things.

¹¹ Our mouth^ghas spoken freely to you, O Corinthians, our heart is opened wide. ¹² You are not restrained^hby us, but you are restrained in your ownⁱaffections. ¹³ Now in a like exchange—I speak as to children—open wide to us also.

¹⁴ Do not be^jbound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness? ¹⁵ Or what harmony has Christ with^kBelial, or^lwhat has a believer in common with an unbeliever? ¹⁶ Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said,“I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM;
AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.

¹⁷“Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE,” says the Lord.
“AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN;
And I will welcome you.

¹⁸“And I will be a father to you,
And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,”
Says the Lord Almighty.
