in the places beyond you to proclaim good news, not in another's line in regard to the things made ready, to boast;

The truth of Christ is in me, because this boasting shall not be stopped in regard to me in the regions of Achaia;

Why? Because I do not love you [or wish you well, or have regard for your welfare]? God knows [that I do]!

On behalf of such a man I will boast; but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in regard to my weaknesses.

for if I may wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for truth I will say; but I forebear, lest any one in regard to me may think anything above what he doth see me, or doth hear anything of me;

lest again having come, my God may humble me in regard to you, and I may bewail many of those having sinned before, and not having reformed concerning the uncleanness, and whoredom, and lasciviousness, that they did practise.

and his own work let each one prove, and then in regard to himself alone the glorying he shall have, and not in regard to the other,

in regard to the dispensation of the fulness of the times, to bring into one the whole in the Christ, both the things in the heavens, and the things upon the earth -- in him;

if, indeed, ye did hear of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,

in regard to which ye are able, reading it, to understand my knowledge in the secret of the Christ,

that He may give to you, according to the riches of His glory, with might to be strengthened through His Spirit, in regard to the inner man,

to put away, in regard to your former mode of life, your original evil nature which is doomed to perish as befits its misleading impulses,

this secret is great, and I speak in regard to Christ and to the assembly;

through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints --

Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves;

who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,

the word of life holding forth, for rejoicing to me in regard to a day of Christ, that not in vain did I run, nor in vain did I labour;

and the proof of him ye know, that as a child serveth a father, with me he did serve in regard to the good news;

Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold men like him in high regard;

But these assets I have come to regard as liabilities because of Christ.
