2 CORINTHIANS 11
PAUL’S ENDURANCE + CREDIBILITY AS A GOSPEL MESSENGER
Paul addresses the Corinthians about other messengers who have attempted to influence the church. Calling them “super-apostles,” Paul warns against the arrogance of false teachers. With a righteous jealousy for the people of Corinth, Paul wants them to trust in Jesus and not false gods or idols. He does not want the believers to be deceived and reminds the Christians that even Satan disguises himself as a source of light.
Paul accepted support from other churches in order to bring God’s Word to the people of Corinth for free. He asks the believers to support the work of God’s people financially so that the news of Jesus could continue to spread.
Paul compares his credibility with the false teachers, arguing that they are from the same heritage as descendants of Abraham. Not only is Paul a more devoted follower of Christ, Jesus appeared to Paul personally! (Acts 9) Expressing the suffering he has faced as a missionary, Paul says he has faced lashings, beatings, shipwrecks, imprisonment, robberies, dangers, and anxieties. Highlighting the great affliction he has endured, Paul boasts in his own weakness for the advancement of the gospel.
