2 Corinthians 8:16-24 - Arrangements For Administering The Corinthians' Gift
16 Thanks be unto God, which put in the heart of Titus the same good mind toward you. 17 For he accepted the request. Yea, rather he was so well willing, that of his own accord came unto you. 18 We have sent with him that brother whose laud is in the gospel throughout all the congregations: 19 and not so only, but is also chosen of the congregations to be a fellow with us in our journey, as concerning this benevolence that is ministered by us unto the praise of the Lord, and to stir up your prompt mind. 20 For this we eschew, that any man should rebuke us in this plenteous distribution that is ministered by us, 21 and therefore make provision for honest things, not in the sight of God only, but also in the sight of men. 22 We have sent with them a brother of ours, whom we have oft times proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent. The great confidence which I have in you 23 hath caused me this to do: partly for Titus' sake - which is my fellow, and helper as concerning you - partly because of others which are our brethren, and the messengers of the congregations, and the glory of Christ. 24 Wherefore show unto them the proof of your love, and of the rejoicing that we have of you, that the congregations may see it.
