2 Corinthians 8:16-24 - Arrangements For Administering The Corinthians' Gift

16 But thanks be to God who has inspired in the heart of Titus the same zeal on your behalf that I have. 17 For he not only consented to my request, but being thoroughly in earnest, comes to you of his own accord. 18 And I am sending with him that brother whose fame in the service of the gospel is spread through all the churches. 19 More than that, he is the one chosen by the churches to accompany me on my journey, in administering this gift of yours for the Lord's glory. And this has my full consent, 20 because I am on my guard in this, that no one should blame me, in respect to this bounty which I am administering. 21 For I aim at being above reproach, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men. 22 With them I am sending our brother of whose zeal I have often had proof in many ways, and who is now zealous because of his great confidence in you. 23 As for Titus, remember that he is a partner of mine, and is also my associate in labors for you. As for the other brothers, remember that they are delegates from the churches, men in whom Christ is glorified. 24 So show to the churches an evidence of your love, and a justification to these brothers of my boasting about you.
