Question 0

But as God is faithful, our word to you is not yes and no.

Answer 0

2 Corinthians 1:18

Question 1

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ.

Answer 1

2 Corinthians 1:3-5

Question 2

so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

Answer 2

2 Corinthians 2:11

Question 3

But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; to the one an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is adequate for these things?

Answer 3

2 Corinthians 2:14-16

Question 4

For we are not like many, peddling the word of God, but as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God.

Answer 4

2 Corinthians 2:17

Question 5

Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

Answer 5

2 Corinthians 3:5-6

Question 6

But their minds were hardened; for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains unlifted, because it is removed in Christ. But to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their heart; but whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

Answer 6

2 Corinthians 3:14-16

Question 7

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.

Answer 7

2 Corinthians 3:17-18

Question 8

but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

Answer 8

2 Corinthians 4:2

Question 9

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

Answer 9

2 Corinthians 4:3-4

Question 10

For we do not preach ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond- servants for Jesus’ sake. For God, who said, “ Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

Answer 10

2 Corinthians 4:5-6

Question 11

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves; we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

Answer 11

2 Corinthians 4:7-10

Question 12

But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “ I believed, therefore I spoke,” we also believe, therefore we also speak,

Answer 12

2 Corinthians 4:13

Question 13

Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Answer 13

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Question 14

For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven, inasmuch as we, having put it on, will not be found naked. For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge.

Answer 14

2 Corinthians 5:2-5

Question 15

for we walk by faith, not by sight —

Answer 15

2 Corinthians 5:7

Question 16

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

Answer 16

2 Corinthians 5:10

Question 17

For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.

Answer 17

2 Corinthians 5:14-15

Question 18

Therefore from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer. Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

Answer 18

2 Corinthians 5:16-17

Question 19

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

Answer 19

2 Corinthians 5:17

Question 20

Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

Answer 20

2 Corinthians 5:18-19

Question 21

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

Answer 21

2 Corinthians 5:20

Question 22

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Answer 22

2 Corinthians 5:21

Question 23

for He says,
“ AT the acceptable time I listened to you,
And on the day of salvation I helped you.”
Behold, now is “ the acceptable time,” behold, now is “ the day of salvation”—

Answer 23

2 Corinthians 6:2

Question 24

in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left, by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; regarded as deceivers and yet true; as unknown yet well- known, as dying yet behold, we live; as punished yet not put to death, as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing yet possessing all things.

Answer 24

2 Corinthians 6:7-9

Question 25

Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness? Or what harmony has Christ with Belial, or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever?

Answer 25

2 Corinthians 6:14-15

Question 26

Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said,
“ I will dwell in them and walk among them;
And I will be their God, and they shall be MY people.
“ Therefore, come out from their midst and be separate,” says the Lord.
“ And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will welcome you.
“ And I will be a father to you,
And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,”
Says the Lord Almighty.

Answer 26

2 Corinthians 6:16-18

Question 27

For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death.

Answer 27

2 Corinthians 7:10

Question 28

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.

Answer 28

2 Corinthians 8:9

Question 29

Now this I say, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Answer 29

2 Corinthians 9:6-7

Question 30

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed; as it is written,
“ HE scattered abroad, he gave to the poor,
His righteousness endures forever.”

Answer 30

2 Corinthians 9:8-9

Question 31

Now I, Paul, myself urge you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ —I who am meek when face to face with you, but bold toward you when absent!

Answer 31

2 Corinthians 10:1

Question 32

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, and we are ready to punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.

Answer 32

2 Corinthians 10:3-6

Question 33

For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his personal presence is unimpressive and his speech contemptible.”

Answer 33

2 Corinthians 10:10

Question 34

For we are not bold to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.

Answer 34

2 Corinthians 10:12

Question 35

But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ. 4 For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully.

Answer 35

2 Corinthians 11:3-4

Question 36

For I consider myself not in the least inferior to the most eminent apostles. 6 But even if I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not so in knowledge; in fact, in every way we have made this evident to you in all things.
7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?

Answer 36

2 Corinthians 11:5-7

Question 37

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.

Answer 37

2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Question 38

Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I. 23 Are they servants of Christ? —I speak as if insane —I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death. 24 Five times I received from the Jews thirty- nine lashes. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the deep. 26 I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among false brethren; 27 I have been in labor and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. 28 Apart from such external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for all the churches. 29 Who is weak without my being weak? Who is led into sin without my intense concern?
30 If I have to boast, I will boast of what pertains to my weakness.

Answer 38

2 Corinthians 11:22-30

Question 39

1 Boasting is necessary, though it is not profitable; but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. 2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago —whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, God knows —such a man was caught up to the third heaven.

Answer 39

2 Corinthians 12:1-2

Question 40

And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

Answer 40

2 Corinthians 12:9-10

Question 41

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.

Answer 41

2 Corinthians 12:14

Question 42

Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you fail the test?

Answer 42

2 Corinthians 13:5

Question 43

For we can do nothing against the truth, but only for the truth.

Answer 43

2 Corinthians 13:8
