Manifestation of the Truth?

[Complete]

'But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty,
not walking in craftiness,
nor handling the word of God deceitfully;
but by manifestation of the truth
commending ourselves to every man's conscience
in the sight of God.'
(2 Cor, 4:2)

'For not he that commendeth himself is approved,
but whom the Lord commendeth.'
(2 Cor. 10:18)

'We then, as workers together with Him,
beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
(For He saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted,
and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee:
behold, now is the accepted time;
behold, now is the day of salvation.)
Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God,
.. in much patience,
.... in afflictions,
...... in necessities,
........ in distresses,
.......... In stripes,
............ in imprisonments,
.............. in tumults,
................ in labours,
.................. in watchings,
.................... in fastings;
.. By pureness,
.... by knowledge,
...... by longsuffering,
........ by kindness,
.......... by the Holy Ghost,
............ by love unfeigned,
.............. By the word of truth,
................ by the power of God,
.................. by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
.................... By honour and dishonour,
...................... by evil report and good report:
.. as deceivers, and yet true;
.... As unknown, and yet well known;
...... as dying, and, behold, we live;
........ as chastened, and not killed;
.......... As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing;
............ as poor, yet making many rich;
.............. as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.
.. Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.
.... Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,)
...... be ye also enlarged.
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
.. for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
.... and what communion hath light with darkness?
...... And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
........ or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
.......... And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?
........... for ye are the temple of the living God;
............ as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them;
.............. and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
................ Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord,
.................. and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
.................... And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters,
...................... saith the Lord Almighty.'
(2 Cor, 6:1-18)

GINOLJC to all,
Good morning Complete. interesting topic.
2 Corinthians 4:1 "Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;" 2 Corinthians 4:2 "But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God."

interesting, for all of us refuse the First principle of God. Hebrews 5:12 "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat." Hebrews 5:13 "For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe." Hebrews 5:14 "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil."

Many refuse to be re-educate. many think they have it correct. but all must study with God to manifest the TRUTH.
