2Co 12-1 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.-2Co 12-2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, -whether in the body, I cannot tell- or whether out of the body, I cannot tell- God knoweth-- such an one caught up to the third heaven.-2Co 12-3 And I knew such a man, -whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell- God knoweth---2Co 12-4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.-2Co 12-5 Of such an one will I glory- yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.-2Co 12-6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool- for I will say the truth- but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.-2Co 12-7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.-2Co 12-8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.-2Co 12-9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee- for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.-2Co 12-10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake- for when I am weak, then am I strong.
