2 Cor 12:9
"My grace is sufficient for you,for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therfore, i will raher boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
Chacacters:Paul,God,and us
Setting:God spoke to Paul
this scripture shows us the amount of grace God shows us. it shows how are weaknesses are not bad things but that is where power is perfected. so it is saying wouldnt you rather be glad about the weaknesses so that Christs power may be in us. we can have power through Jesus in our weaknesses.
2 Cor. 6:3 We put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited.
Paul is speaking to the cor.
This can be applied to my life in that living our lives holy and pleasing to him is the only way in which our ministry will flourish. That means not being a stumbling block to ANYONE.
Galatians 1:11 I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is not something that that man made up.
Paul talking to the church of the Galatians. This just is like a conformation that the word of God is of God and not of man and that i can know when i read and use the scripture that it is of Gods inspiration.
