14 Tough Love Endurance & Triumph Amidst Difficulties (part 12) 2 Corinthians 12:11-13:10

15 2 Corinthians 12: I have made a fool of myself, but you drove me to it. I ought to have been commended by you, for I am not in the least inferior to the super-apostles, even though I am nothing.

16 2 Corinthians 12: I persevered in demonstrating among you the marks of a true apostle, including signs, wonders and miracles. 13 How were you inferior to the other churches, except that I was never a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!

17 2 Corinthians 12: Now I am ready to visit you for the third time, and I will not be a burden to you, because what I want is not your possessions but you. After all, children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.

18 2 Corinthians 12: So I will very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well. If I love you more, will you love me less? 16 Be that as it may, I have not been a burden to you. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!

19 2 Corinthians 12: Did I exploit you through any of the men I sent to you? 18 I urged Titus to go to you and I sent our brother with him. Titus did not exploit you, did he? Did we not walk in the same footsteps by the same Spirit?

20 2 Corinthians 12: Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening.

21 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) 19 Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening.

22 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders

23 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders o Acts 20:18-21 (ESV) 18 You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia,

24 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders o Acts 20:18-21 (ESV) 19 serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews;

25 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders o Acts 20:18-21 (ESV) 20 how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house,

26 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders o Acts 20:18-21 (ESV) 21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

27 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For church leaders

28 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For fellow believers in Christ

29 Tough love seeks the best in others, even if it makes us uncomfortable (12:11-19) For fellow believers in Christ o Colossians 3:16 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

35 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) 19 Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? We have been speaking in the sight of God as those in Christ; and everything we do, dear friends, is for your strengthening.

36 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) 20 For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you as I want you to be, and you may not find me as you want me to be. I fear that there may be discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder.

37 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) 21 I am afraid that when I come again my God will humble me before you, and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of the impurity, sexual sin and debauchery in which they have indulged.

38 Tough love does not compromise with sin God does not compromise (12:19-21)

39 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) God does not compromise The Church should not compromise

40 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) God does not compromise The Church should not compromise Parents should not compromise

41 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) Parents should not compromise o Emphasize Biblical standards and not just your personal standards or preferences

42 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) Parents should not compromise o Ask God for wisdom balancing rules and trust

43 Tough love does not compromise with sin (12:19-21) Parents should not compromise o Don t compromise on sin, but don t shame your children. Overflow with grace and forgiveness.

44 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 1 This will be my third visit to you. Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. 2 I already gave you a warning when I was with you the second time.

45 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) I now repeat it while absent: On my return I will not spare those who sinned earlier or any of the others, 3 since you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you.

46 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 4 For to be sure, he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God s power. Likewise, we are weak in him, yet by God s power we will live with him in our dealing with you.

47 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 5 Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you unless, of course, you fail the test? 6 And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test.

48 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 7 Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong not so that people will see that we have stood the test but so that you will do what is right even though we may seem to have failed.

49 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. 9 We are glad whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be fully restored.

50 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) 10 This is why I write these things when I am absent, that when I come I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority the authority the Lord gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down.

51 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) God sets boundaries for us

52 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) God sets boundaries for us As a church, we are commanded to set boundaries

53 Tough love sets boundaries (13:1-10) God sets boundaries for us As a church, we are commanded to set boundaries As parents, we also need to set boundaries for our children

54 Conclusion Love with a tough & tender love
