The Test of Faith | 2 Corinthians 12:11-13:14
/The final pleas and encouragements to the church in Corinth.
The Corinthians seem ungrateful, disobedient and quarrelsome.
Things we are painfully vulnerable to too.

1. Test the external (12:11-21)
Spoilt children - who is at fault? (12:11-13)
True Gospel Ministry spends like parents (12:14-18).
True Gospel Ministry takes responsibility like parents (12:19-21)
2. Test the internal (13:1-10)
A court summons (13:1-4)
Seeking restoration (13:5-10)
3. Final Encouragements (13:11-14)
The Christian CV | 2 Corinthians 11:16-12:10
/Paul’s last argument against the false teaching super apostles is to adopt their own style. Paul will fight fire with fire… He will play them at their own game. He will become a fool to save the church from even greater fools. If your tendency is to love displays of human power and human credentials, here you will get your heart set straight as we see that God’s power is at work in weakness.
Bearing Correction | 2 Corinthians 11:1-15

Ephesus (1) - The Gospel is for Everyone
/The Five City Tour was completed at Corinth. The first visits to Europe done. Now Paul heads home (to Antioch) via Ephesus. On the way he has a haircut, we learn about Apollos and some other stuff happening and then there is a strange meeting with some other disciples. Is the good news really for this strange sect?
Corinth - God's Work & Ours | Acts 18:1-17
/A passage big on encouragement - Can the gospel cut it? Will the gospel cut it? How do we know anything much will happen as we pursue God’s mission? See what happens as the Apostle Paul gets to Corinth (a place chosen for it’s influence? No… just the next place on the map with lots of people) in Acts 18:1-17.
