I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

just as you know how we were exhorting and encouraging and imploring each one of you as a father would his own children,

For if you were to have countless tutors in Christ, yet you would not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.

Here for this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I do not seek what is yours, but you; for children are not responsible to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.I will most gladly spend and be expended for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?

Why? Because I do not love you? God knows that I do!

I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not among you anyone wise who will be able to decide between his brothers and sisters,

Therefore, be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears.

Our mouth has spoken freely to you, you Corinthians, our heart is opened wide.You are not restrained by us, but you are restrained in your own affections.Now in the same way in exchange— I am speaking as to children— open wide your hearts to us, you as well.

However, if you have warned the righteous person that the righteous is not to sin, and he does not sin, he shall certainly live because he took warning; and you have saved yourself.”

All this time you have been thinking that we are defending ourselves to you. Actually, it is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ; and all for building you up, beloved.

Sober up morally and stop sinning, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

We proclaim Him, admonishing every person and teaching every person with all wisdom, so that we may present every person complete in Christ.

I do not speak to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.

We urge you, brothers and sisters, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone.

But I have used none of these things. And I have not written these things so that it will be done so in my case; for it would be better for me to die than that. No one shall make my boast an empty one!
