2 Corinthians 4:1-4 Because of this, having this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart.

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Because of this, having this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart. ² But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor falsifying the word of God, but by manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves to every man’s conscience before God. ³ But if indeed our gospel is concealed, it is concealed to those who are perishing, ⁴ in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so as for not to beam forth the illumination of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
