2 Corinthians 1:12
Compare all
10 awho delivered us from so great a death, and1 does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us,  
11 you also ahelping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on1 our behalf bfor the gift granted to us through many.  

Paul’s Sincerity

12 For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in1 simplicity and agodly sincerity, bnot with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.  
13 For we are not writing any other things to you than what you read or understand. Now I trust you will understand, even to the end
14 (as also you have understood us in part), athat we are your boast as byou also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.  

Sparing the Church

15 And in this confidence aI intended to come to you before, that you might have ba second benefit—  
16 to pass by way of you to Macedonia, ato come again from Macedonia to you, and be helped by you on my way to Judea.

2 Corinthians 1:12

For I am the more emboldened to look for this, because I am conscious of my integrity; seeing this is our rejoicing - Even in the deepest adversity. The testimony of our conscience - Whatever others think of us. That in simplicity - Having one end in view, aiming singly at the glory of God. And godly sincerity - Without any tincture of guile, dissimulation, or disguise. Not with carnal wisdom, but by the grace of God - Not by natural, but divine, wisdom. We have had our conversation in the world - In the whole world; in every circumstance.
