"So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy" - Romans 9:16
2 Corinthians 3:7-16
One of the problems Paul addresses in 2 Corinthians is the teaching of false apostles that some of the Corinthians had started following. These false apostles taught such things as the necessity of keeping the Mosaic Law, but in chapter 3, Paul discusses the superiority of faith in Christ over the Mosaic Law. Only faith in Christ can give us the righteousness that the law demands.
2 Corinthians 2:3-11
Paul had previously instructed the Corinthian church to excommunicate an unrepentant man who was living in sin. The church had obeyed and Paul is urging them to restore their fellowship with the now repentant man. These instructions demonstrate that the ultimate goal of church discipline is not to punish but to bring sinners to repentance so that fellowship can be restored with God and the church.
2 Corinthians 1:3-11
One of the most frequently asked questions that Christians ponder is why God allows them to suffer trials and tribulations. While there are many reasons for God to allow trials and tribulations in our lives, Paul gives us two specific reasons in this first chapter of 2 Corinthians. Trials enable us to help others who are going through similar trials and God also uses them to help our faith to grow.
