2 Corinthians 1:12                             New English Translation

Paul Defends His Changed Plans

12 For our reason for confidence is this: the testimony of our conscience, that with pure motives and sincerity which are from God—not by human wisdom but by the grace of God—we conducted ourselves in the world, and all the more toward you.

 

Places

 

Is my conscience a testimony for everyone to see?

Then only a conscience without offense can testify for me

I am in this world, but not of it. How could this indeed be?

Unless Godly sincerity and Holiness remove me to be free

 

If I ain’t here or I ain’t there, and there is no middle

Then life itself would disappear, and it would be no riddle

So there is a place where I am, and that is all-sufficient

The home that God prepays now built on complete acquittal
