2 For I am jealous of you with the jealousy of God, since I betrothed you to one husband to present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
3 But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts may be corrupted from a sincere [and pure] commitment to Christ.
4 For if someone comes and preaches another Jesus than the one we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it well enough.
5 For I think that I am not in any way inferior to these “superapostles.”
6 Even if I am untrained in speaking, I am not so in knowledge; in every way we have made this plain to you in all things.
7 Did I make a mistake when I humbled myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?
8 I plundered other churches by accepting from them in order to minister to you.
