Galatians 4:12-20 - What Happened To Your Positive Attitude?

¹² Be as I am, for I also am as ye are, brethren??his is my request to you: ye have not injured me in the least. ¹³ Ye know that with infirmity of flesh I preached to you the gospel at the first. ¹⁴ And my temptation, which was in my flesh, ye despised not, nor rejected with disgust; but as an angel of God ye received me, even as Christ Jesus himself.

¹⁵ What then was your blessedness, for I bear witness to you that, if it were possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes, and given them to me. ¹⁶ Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth? ¹⁷ They affect zeal for you, not honourably; but they wish to exclude us, that you may be zealously attached to them. ¹⁸ It is good indeed to be zealously affected in a good cause always, and not only when I am present with you. ¹⁹ My little children of whom I travail in birth again, until Christ be formed in you, ²⁰ I wish I could be with you now, and change my address; for I am in doubt about you.
