WNT(i)
2 I beseech you not to compel me when present to make a bold display of the confidence with which I reckon I shall show my 'courage' against some who reckon that we are guided by worldly principles.
3 For, though we are still living in the world, it is no worldly warfare that we are waging.
4 The weapons with which we fight are not human weapons, but are mighty for God in overthrowing strong fortresses.
5 For we overthrow arrogant 'reckonings,' and every stronghold that towers high in defiance of the knowledge of God, and we carry off every thought as if into slavery--into subjection to Christ;
6 while we hold ourselves in readiness to punish every act of disobedience, as soon as ever you as a Church have fully shown your obedience.
