Final Warnings To The Church At Corinth

2 I said before, and I again tell you beforehand, as if I were present the second time; and being absent I now write to those who have sinned heretofore, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare: 3 since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, who is not weak toward you, but is powerful among you. 4 For if He was crucified as from weakness, yet He now liveth by the power of God: for we also are weak in Him, but shall live with Him by the power of God manifested to you.
