If the meaning of the good news I preach is covered up at all, it is so only in the case of those who are on the way to destruction.

In their case, the god of this world has blinded the eyes of the unbelievers, to keep the glorious light of the good news of Christ, who is the likeness of God, from dawning upon them.

So in my own case, I will most happily spend my money and myself for your sakes. If I love you much more than I love others, am I to be loved less by you?

Greet one another with a sacred kiss.
