46:004:012 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:
46:004:013 Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.
46:004:014 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.
46:004:015 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
46:004:016 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.
46:004:017 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
46:004:018 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.
46:004:019 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
46:004:020 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
46:004:021 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
