2 Corinthians 1:17-20

When I therefore was thus minded Having, therefore, purposed this; did I use lightness Did I lightly change my purpose? or, the things that I purpose in general; do I purpose according to the flesh Are my purposes grounded on carnal or worldly considerations? that with me there should be yea and nay Sometimes one, sometimes the other; that is, variableness and inconstancy in my counsels and actions, that none should know how to depend upon me for what they had to expect from me? But as God is true I solemnly protest, that, as the God whom I serve is faithful; our word to you On this and other occasions, and the doctrine we have preached to you; was not yea and nay Wavering and uncertain; but that my behaviour and testimony have been always uniform, invariable, and consistent with my professions. For the Son of God, who was preached by us That is, our preaching concerning him, was not yea and nay Was not variable and inconsistent with itself; but in him was yea As he is the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever, the declarations of his Word, and the engagements of his covenant, are inviolably the same. For all the promises of God Many and precious as they are; in him are yea and amen Are made with truth, and fulfilled with fidelity; or are surely established and accomplished in and through him. They are yea with respect to God promising; amen with respect to men believing; yea with respect to the apostles; amen with respect to their hearers. Unto the glory of God by us As is declared by us in our ministry.
