9 And when I was with you and in need, I was burdensome to no one. For the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied whatever was lacking to me. And in all things, I have kept myself, and I will keep myself, from being burdensome to you.
10 The truth of Christ is in me, and so this glorying shall not be broken away from me in the regions of Achaia.
11 Why so? Is it because I do not love you? God knows I do.

13 For false apostles, such as these deceitful workers, are presenting themselves as if they were Apostles of Christ.
14 And no wonder, for even Satan presents himself as if he were an Angel of light.
15 Therefore, it is no great thing if his ministers present themselves as if they were ministers of justice, for their end shall be according to their works.
