2 Corinthians 10 — Context

3

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh

4

(for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds);

5

casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;

6

and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be made full.

7

Ye look at the things that are before your face. If any man trusteth in himself that he is Christ’s, let him consider this again with himself, that, even as he is Christ’s, so also are we.

8

For though I should glory somewhat abundantly concerning our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for casting you down), I shall not be put to shame:

9

that I may not seem as if I would terrify you by my letters.
