WPNT(i)
8 Now even if I boast a little to excess about our authority (which the Lord gave us for building up, not to tear you down), I will not act ashamed,

10 Because some say, “His letters are ‘heavy’ and forceful, but his physical presence is weak, and his speech can be disdained.”
11 Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters while absent is just what we will be in action when present.
