and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.'

'Verily I say to you, Whatever things ye may bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever things ye may loose on the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.

for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles,


and I fear, lest, as the serpent did beguile Eve in his subtilty, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in the Christ; for if, indeed, he who is coming doth preach another Jesus whom we did not preach, or another Spirit ye receive which ye did not receive, or other good news which ye did not accept -- well were ye bearing it, for I reckon that I have been nothing behind the very chiefest apostles, read more.
and even if unlearned in word -- yet not in knowledge, but in every thing we were made manifest in all things to you. The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you? other assemblies I did rob, having taken wages, for your ministration; and being present with you, and having been in want, I was chargeable to no one, for my lack did the brethren supply -- having come from Macedonia -- and in everything burdenless to you I did keep myself, and will keep. The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting shall not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia; wherefore? because I do not love you? God hath known! and what I do, I also will do, that I may cut off the occasion of those wishing an occasion, that in that which they boast they may be found according as we also; for those such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ, and no wonder -- for even the Adversary doth transform himself into a messenger of light; no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness -- whose end shall be according to their works.
