2 Corinthians 10:12; 2 Corinthians 10:18; Proverbs 25:27; 2 Corinthians 12:11

12 Not that we dare to classify or bcompare ourselves with some of those who care commending themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are dwithout understanding.


18 For it is lnot the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one mwhom the Lord commends.


27  It is qnot good to eat much honey,

nor is it glorious to rseek one’s own glory.1


Concern for the Corinthian Church

11 pI have been a fool! You forced me to it, for I ought to have been commended by you. For I was qnot at all inferior to these super-apostles, reven though I am nothing.
