¹ Paul an Apostle of Iesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothie our brother, vnto the Church of God, which is at Corinth, with all the Saints, which are in all Achaia:

² Grace bee to you and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.

³ Blessed be God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort,

⁴ Who comforteth vs in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort, wherewith we our selues are comforted of God.

⁵ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in vs, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

⁶ And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and saluation, which is effectuall in the enduring of the same sufferings, which wee also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation, and saluation.

⁷ And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall yee be also of the consolatiou.

⁸ For we would not, brethren, haue you ignorant of our trouble which came to vs in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, aboue strength, in so much that we dispaired euen of life.

⁹ But we had the sentence of death in our selues, that we should not trust in our selues, but in God which raiseth the dead.

¹⁰ Who deliuered vs from so great a death, and doeth deliuer: in whom we trust that he will yet deliuer vs:

¹¹ You also helping together by prayer for vs, that for the gift bestowed vpon vs by the meanes of many persons, thankes may bee giuen by many on our behalfe.

¹² For our reioycing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicitie and godly sinceritie, not with fleshly wisedome, but by the grace of God, wee haue had our conuersation in the world, and more aboundantly to youwards.

¹³ For we write none other things vnto you, then what you reade or acknowledge, and I trust you shall acknowledge euen to the end.

¹⁴ As also you haue acknowledged vs in part, that we are your reioycing, euen as ye also are ours, in the day of the Lord Iesus.

¹⁵ And in this confidence I was minded to come vnto you before, that you might haue a second benefit:

¹⁶ And to passe by you into Macedonia, and to come againe out of Macedonia vnto you, and of you to bee brought on my way toward Iudea.

¹⁷ When I therefore was thus minded, did I vse lightnesse? or the things that I purpose, doe I purpose according to the flesh, that with mee there should be yea yea, and nay nay?

¹⁸ But as God is true, our word toward you, was not yea and nay.

¹⁹ For the Sonne of God Iesus Christ, who was preached among you by vs, euen by me, and Syluanus and Timotheus, was not Yea, and Nay, but in him, was yea.

²⁰ For all the promises of God in him are Yea, and in him Amen, vnto the glory of God by vs.

²¹ Now hee which stablisheth vs with you, in Christ, and hath anoynted vs, is God,

²² Who hath also sealed vs, and giuen the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

²³ Moreouer, I call God for a record vpō my soule, that to spare you I came not as yet vnto Corinth.

²⁴ Not for that we haue dominion ouer your faith, but are helpers of your ioy: for by faith ye stand.

I pray that I can rejoice in times of suffering the way brother Paul did to start off the book to the Corinthians I just love how the WORD of GOD is written in the King James Bible truly this should give you joy in the Spirit saying Blessed be GOD,Blessed be GOD. The great and eternal Father that comforts my soul.

PAUL IS A GREAT TEACHER, AND ONE WHO WAS AS CLOSE TO CHRIST AS ANY OF THE APOSTLES, ALTHOUGH, HE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM HE DID MORE, AND WROTE MORE BOOKS, OF THE NEW TESTAMEN, THAN ALL OF THE APOSTLES, WE GIVE GOD ALL THE PRAISE HONOR AND GLORY!!

Grace's 2 Corinthians Chapter 1 comment on 11/13/2011, 6:58am...

JESUS LOVER OF MY SOUL, JESUS I WILL NEVER LET YOU GO

Jesus, lover of my soul
Jesus, I will never let You go
You've taken me from the miry clay
Set my feet upon the rock and now I know

I love You, I need You
Though my world may fall, I'll never let You go
My Saviour, my closest friend
I will worship You until the very end

I love You, I need You
Though my world may fall, I'll never let You go
My Saviour, my closest friend
I will worship You until the very end.
I woke up this morning and remembered this song and thought it might encourage some people.
This is a heart-felt longing and testimony of one who truly appreciates the Love and saving Power of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Paul in his second epistle to the Corinthians tried to explain this abundant provision God has for every one who will run to him for refuge, and trust Him for deliverance. 2Corinthians 1: 3-5 ‘Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ’
God does not promise that life will be easy. No. Instead there is an assurance of His consolation and comfort when we find ourselves in such situations at any stage during our life’s journey. You need to be close in relationship to have the benefit. There is an image of expected experience which may come useful for some other purposes in life. When we trust in any thing outside God, It is like standing or walking in mud. You can imagine the struggle and fears and the mess, or, even danger. Compare it with standing on, or even running on a rock, just as John Wesley and the writer of this song is full of exuberant worship and praise for the way God had delivered him from trusting on any other but God.
The summary of it is that Christ is our REFUGE, HOPE & PLACE OF SECURITY.
‘God is our refuge and strength; and a very present help...’ (Psalm 46:1).
Do you feel lonely, widowed, divorced, orphaned, threatened, neglected, abandoned, forsaken, rejected, or abused in any way? The same One who died on the cross for you, now says: ‘Come unto me all ye that labour, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest’ (Matthew 11:28).
1 Peter 5: 6 ‘Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
I pray Oh Lord, in Your infinite and abundant grace and mercy, meet at the point of their needs, all who are cut up in any of lives unpleasant experiences, and all who despair or are confused. May they find HOPE in Your promises, Your steadfast love and faithfulness in Jesus’ Mighty Name…Amen.

God bless.

B.M. Devitt's 2 Corinthians Chapter 1 comment on 7/22/2011, 11:42am...

If you are abiding in Jesus's words( through his Fathers commandment he speaks)you will see that in Matthew -5- he states that our communication is to be only yea yea , nay nay. This is a clear example of why the words of diciples(apostles) ,servants are not above our Lord and Masters (the true vine). To remove yourself from commandment is to not" take heed" . You will be decieved!

RC's 2 Corinthians Chapter 1 comment on 4/01/2011, 9:15am...

You might look at the following chapters.
If you are interested or concerned which is common
to many that the Word spoken or Read is not clear
to you, ASK God to make His meaning known to you.
Ask God to help you understand what he wants you to know from His Word. It is very Important to Ask with a sincere heart. HE WILL answer you for He wants you to have a deeper relationship with Him.

Book of Acts 2nd chapter:
The whole chapter references this but specifically verses:

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

Mark 16:8-19
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;


1 Corinthinians Chapter 14 is one of the best for gaining understanding of the gift of tongues.

22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying [serveth] not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.

23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in [those that are] unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or [one] unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:

25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on [his] face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

27 If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most [by] three, and [that] by course; and let one interpret.

28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

Kat's 2 Corinthians Chapter 1 comment on 12/20/2010, 2:13pm...

Tom,
I hope that you have found the answer to your comment. However, if not please read 1 Corin. 12 verses 1-10 this shows tongues as a gift.
