2 Corinthians 6:3

Marks of the Ministry

1 We then, as ^aworkers together with Him also ^bplead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

2 For He says:
^a“In an acceptable time I have heard you,
And in the day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

3 ^aWe give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.

4 But in all things we commend ourselves ^aas ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,

5 ^ain stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;

6 by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by¹ sincere love,

7 ^aby the word of truth, by ^bthe power of God, by ^cthe armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8 by honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;

9 as unknown, and ^ayet well known; ^bas dying, and behold we live; ^cas chastened, and yet not killed;
