2 Corinthians 7:11

A Letter That Caused Sadness

¹⁰ For, grief according to God, worketh, repentance unto salvation, not to be regretted; although, the grieving of the world, worketh, death. ¹¹ For lo! this very thing - the being caused to grieve, according to God: - what manner of diligence it wrought out in you, - nay! defence, - nay! sore displeasure, - nay! fear, - nay! earnest desire, - nay! jealousy, - nay! avenging. In every way, ye shewed yourselves to be, chaste, in the matter. ¹² Hence, if I even wrote unto you, it was not for the sake of him that did the wrong, naynot even for the sake of him that suffered the wrong; but for the sake of your earnestness, which was on our account, being made manifest unto you, before God:-

Before God

Fear of God

Free from Sin

Godly Sorrow

Will of God

With God
