The Cambridge dictionary defines integrity as, “The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles that you refuse to change.” As Paul and his ministry team receive judgements from the Corinthian church, he responds with arguments defending his integrity. The close of the first chapter of 2nd Corinthians paves the way for the rest of the letter. Patience, long suffering, and truth will guide the way as the Apostle attempts to win the hearts and minds of the Corinthians to the Lord.
