2 Corinthians 1:19

2 Corinthians 1:19

17 Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan ^aaccording to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

18 But as God is ^afaithful, our word to you was not Yes and No.

19 For ^athe Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, ^bSilvanus, and ^cTimothy—was not Yes and No, ^dbut in Him was Yes.

20 ^aFor all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.

21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and ^ahas anointed us is God,

22 who ^aalso has sealed us and ^bgiven us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

<< 2 Corinthians 1:18

2 Corinthians 1:20 >>

Was not Yea and Nay (ouk egeneto nai kai ou). "Did not become Yes and No."

But in him is yea (alla Nai en autw gegonen). Rather, "But in him Yes has become yes," has proved true. So Paul appeals to the life of Christ to sustain his own veracity.
