2 Corinthians 8:17-24

Living_Oracles(i) 17 For he, indeed, received an exhortation; but from his great earnestness, was going to you of his own accord. 18 And with him we have sent the brother, whose praise in the gospel is throughout all the congregations. 19 And not only so, but who was also chosen by the congregations our fellow-traveler, with this charity, which is ministered by us, to the glory of the Lord himself, and of your readiness: 20 using this precaution, that none may blame us in the distribution of this abundance; 21 premeditating things comely, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in sight of men. 22 And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes found diligent in many things; but now much more diligent, from the great confidence which he has in you. 23 If any inquire concerning Titus, he is my partner and fellow-laborer for you; or if our brethren be inquired of, they are Apostles of congregations, and a glory of Christ. 24 Wherefore, the proof of your love, and of our boasting concerning you, display before them, and before the face of the congregations.
