2 Corinthians 10:7-9

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Look at what is obvious.^[a] If anyone is confident that he belongs to Christ,^(A) let him remind himself of this: Just as he belongs to Christ, so do we. ⁸ For if I boast a little too much about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up^(B) and not for tearing you down, I will not be put to shame. ⁹ I don’t want to seem as though I am trying to terrify you with my letters.
