Concern for Their Faithfulness
1 Oh, that you would bear with me in a little afolly—and indeed you do bear with me.
2 For I am ajealous for you with godly jealousy. For bI have betrothed you to one husband, cthat I may present you das a chaste virgin to Christ.
3 But I fear, lest somehow, as athe serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds bmay be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a adifferent gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!
Paul and False Apostles
5 For I consider that aI am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles.
