In today's journey through 2nd Corinthians chapter 2 we shall receive;  1) Understanding that Perception is everything. It's not what was said,  but how it is said and the way received that make or breaks  relationships! 2) Forgiveness is the principle. Though punishment is  necessary for the correction of wrong doing forgiveness is equally  important in the church. Not to be as the world in writing people off,  but to be as our LORD who even sees the worth of such a wretched sinner  as Barabbas that our LORD would take his place on the cross and give up  His own life for Barabbas! 3) We are the fragrance of Christ. We are not  "peddlers" of some gospel out to make a quick buck! We are to be  revealers of Jesus Christ to the world; to those perishing we are the  message of eternal death, and to those living we are the joy of eternal  life!
