2 Corinthians 10:7-9

21st Century King James Version

⁷ Do ye look on things according to the outward appearance? If any man trust himself that he is Christ’s, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ’s, even so are we Christ’s.

⁸ For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority (which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction), I should not be ashamed,

⁹ that I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.
