Therefore henceforth I know no one simply as a man??ven if I have known Christ as a man, yet now I do so no longer.

As a worker with him I beseech you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

Nevertheless I am sending the brothers in order that my boast about you may not prove vain in this instance; so that, as I kept saying, you may be prepared.

I know a Christian man who, fourteen years ago (whether in the body I know not, or out of the body, I know not. God knows), was caught up??his man of whom I speak??ven into the third heaven.
