2 Corinthians 8:9

Compare all

7 But as ^ayou abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see ^bthat you abound in this grace also.

Christ Our Pattern

8 ^aI speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.

9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, ^athat though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become ^brich.

10 And in this ^aI give advice: ^bIt is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and ^cwere desiring to do a year ago;

11 but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.
