2 Corinthians 2:1

2 CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 2 2 Corinthians 2:1 Paul, having shown a motive of tenderness for not coming to Corinth, as also for writing his former Epistle, 2 Corinthians 2:6 declareth himself satisfied with the censure inflicted on the incestuous person, and desireth them to forgive and comfort him, 2 Corinthians 2:10,11 as he himself had forgiven him in Christ's name. 2 Corinthians 2:12,13 His uneasiness for not finding Titus at Troas had caused him to go forthwith into Macedonia. 2 Corinthians 2:14 He blesseth God for the successfulness of his labours every where, 2 Corinthians 2:17 professing his sincerity and disinterestedness before God. One reason why I put off my formerly intended journey to you, was, that I might give you time to repent, and reform those disorders that were amongst you, that my coming to you might neither cause heaviness in you, seeing me come with a rod, to chide and reprove you; nor yet in myself, who do not delight in censures and chidings, but must myself have been sad to have seen such errors and disorders amongst you, as I must by my paternal and apostolical authority have corrected.
