9 Paul s sufferings 39 lashes 5x Stoned Shipwrecked 3x 3x beaten w/rods
10 So what does Paul s suffering have to do with Paul s strengths and weaknesses?
11 We find our answers in some problems at Corinth
12 Some came in claiming to be super apostles putting down Paul and his teaching as inferior
13 Seeking to lead the Corinthians astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ (2 Cor. 11:3)
14 Leaving Paul forced to prove his credentials
15 2 Cor. 12:1 10 Though there is nothing to be gained by it, I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.
16 2 Cor. 12:1 10 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven this man was caught up into paradise.
17 2 Cor. 12:1 10 And he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter. On behalf of this man, I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses.
18 2 Cor. 12:1 10 Though if I wished to boast, I would not be a fool, for I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain from speaking it, so that no one may speak more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.
19 2 Cor. 12:1 10 So to keep from being too elated by the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from being too elated.
20 2 Cor. 12:1 10 Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.
21 2 Cor. 12:1 10 Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
22 2 Cor. 12:1 10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities.
23 2 Cor. 12:1 10 For when I am weak, then I am strong
