Bible study for me. Goodnight see you tomorow.


NKJV

2Co

 12:1 It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord:

 

 12:2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago-whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows-such a one was caught up to the third heaven.

 

 12:3 And I know such a man-whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows-

 

 12:4 how he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

 

 12:5 Of such a one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities.

 

 12:6 For though I might desire to boast, I will not be a fool; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be or hears from me.

 

 12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.

 

 12:8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

 

 12:9 And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

 

 12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
