And not only so, but who was also chosen by the congregations, a traveling companion of us with this gift administered by us, for the glory of the same Lord and our willingness.
For indeed it is superfluous for me to write to you about the service for the sanctified. For I know your willingness, which I boast about you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was prepared from a year ago. And your zeal provoked the majority. But I sent the brothers so that our boast about you would not be empty in this regard. So that, as I said, ye may be prepared, read more.
if somehow Macedonians should come with me and find you unprepared, we (that we might not say, ye) would be embarrassed in this confidence of boast. Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brothers that they would go ahead to you, and arrange in advance your gift that was earlier announced, for this to be ready this way as a gift and not as an exaction. But this, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows in blessings will also reap in blessings. Each man as he purposes in his heart, not from regret or from necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to abound all grace for you, so that always in everything having all sufficiency, ye may abound for every good work, as it is written, He has scattered abroad. He has given to the poor. His righteousness endures into the age. And he who supplies seed to the man who sows, and bread for eating, may he supply and multiply your seed, and may he increase the fruits of your righteousness, being enriched in everything for every generosity, which works gratitude to God through us. Because the service of this ministry is not only supplying the needs of the sanctified, but also abounding through many thanksgivings to God through the evidence of this service, glorifying God at the subjection of your confession toward the good-news of the Christ, and at the generosity of the participation, for them and for all,

Titus » Sent to corinth
for us to urge Titus that, as he earlier began this kindness, so he would even finish it for you also.
But thanks to God who gives the same eagerness for you in the heart of Titus. Because he indeed accepted the exhortation, but his own will being more zealous, he went forth to you. And we sent along with him the brother whose praise in the good-news is throughout all the congregations. read more.
And not only so, but who was also chosen by the congregations, a traveling companion of us with this gift administered by us, for the glory of the same Lord and our willingness. Arranging this lest any man may criticize us in this bounty administered by us, providing things right, not only in the sight of Lord, but also in the sight of men. And we sent along with them our brother whom we often proved being diligent in many things, but is now much more diligent (with much confidence toward you)

Any man of whom I have sent to you, did I exploit you through him? I encouraged Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus exploit you in anything? Did we not walk in the same spirit, not in the same steps?
