2 Corinthians 10:14

Limits of Paul’s Authority

12 ^aFor we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

13 ^aWe, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us—a sphere which especially includes you.

14 For we are not overextending ourselves (as though our authority did not extend to you), ^afor it was to you that we came with the gospel of Christ;

15 not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, ^ain other men’s labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere,

16 to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man’s sphere of accomplishment.

17 But ^a“he who glories, let him glory in the Lord.”
