Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on 2 Corinthians 2:9-13

9My purpose in writing you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything.
10If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake,
11in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
12Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and a door stood open for me in the Lord,
13I had no peace in my spirit, because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to them and went on to Macedonia.
