2 Corinthians 6:3-10
We are careful to not do anything which might cause someone to stumble, so that our service may not be blamed. But rather, in everything, we conduct ourselves as persevering servants of GOD: when we are suffering, during hard times, when having problems, when beaten, while in prison, during insurrections, while doing labor, during sleepless nights, and while fasting. We do this in purity, with understanding, with longsuffering patience, with kindness, by the HOLY SPIRIT, with sincere love, with a message of truth, and by the power of GOD. We have used these weapons of righteousness both on the right hand, and on the left; through honor, and through dishonor; when slandered, and when commended. We are treated as deceivers, yet we tell the truth; as if unknown, yet we are well known; and as if dying, yet, look, we are alive! Punished, but not put to death. We are treated as if we should be sad, but we are always rejoicing; as poor, while we make many rich; as though we have nothing, when in fact we have everything!
