Thematic Bible: Of ministers and prophets
Thematic Bible
Afflictions » Life tested by the lord » Of ministers and prophets
And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
So I spoke unto the people in the morning: and at evening my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling place;
In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;
Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labors more abundant, in stripes beyond measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths often.
That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for you yourselves know that we are appointed unto this.
