Corinth » Visited » By paul
It is now the third time that I have been ready to come to see you, and I will never ask you for financial support, for it is not your money but you yourselves that I want; for children are not by duty bound to lay up money for their parents, but parents for their children.
This is my third visit to you. Any charge preferred must be sustained by the evidence of two or three witnesses.
I will come to see you after I pass through Macedonia -- for I am to pass through Macedonia -- and I shall likely stay over with you some time, or maybe spend the winter with you, so that you may help me on to whatever points I may visit. I do not want to see you right now in a mere stop-over visit, for later I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits me.
