Write
1 Corinthians 9:15

2 Corinthians 7:3
I do not say this to imply blame, for, as I have already said, you have such a place in our hearts that we would die with you or live with you.
2 Corinthians 12:19
You are imagining, all this time, that we are making our defense at your bar. In reality it is as in God's presence and in communion with Christ that we speak; but, dear friends, it is all with a view to your progress in goodness.
