2 Corinthians 8:16-24 - Arrangements For Administering The Corinthians' Gift
16 But thanks be to God, who put the same solicitude for you into the heart of Titus. 17 For he received in deed the exhortation, but being more diligent, of his own ready mind he went unto you. 18 We have sent with him also a brother, whose praise in the gospel is [spread] through all the churches; 19 and not only so, but who was chosen by the churches as my fellow-traveller with this charity, ministered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and [to shew] your ready mind. 20 Avoiding this, that no man should lay any blame to us in this abundance which is administered by us: 21 providing what is fair, not only before the Lord, but also before men. 22 And we have sent with him our brother, whom we have often experienced in many things to be a man of diligence, but now much more diligent, through the great confidence which I have in you. 23 If [any inquire] concerning Titus, he is my companion and fellow-labourer to you; or our brethren [be inquired of], they are the messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ. 24 Therefore shew unto them, and in the presence of the churches, a proof of your love, and of our [just] boasting in you.
