2 Corinthians 11:1 - 15

Paul expresses some concern for the discernment of the Corinthian followers of Jesus. They seem to be willing to listen to anyone who has anything to say without regard for the truthfulness of the matter. Paul takes time to remind his audience that he ministered to them in a very unique manner, not asking them to support him financially (which he did do in other cities). God still provided for his needs; but the Corinthians came away with a jaded view of ministers. As a result, they were becoming easily swayed by the opinions and words of others. Paul warns them to be discerning. Good words to heed today, too!
