2 Corinthians 11:22

We must learn to discern the truth by God’s written word, the BIBLE. False teachers will always try to penetrate the Body of Christ until His return.  If the life and earthly actions of Jesus are our example then He never promised us a problem free life on earth but He did promise us an everlasting one in His heavenly kingdom. The truth will probably never win a popularity contest but it will win you the crown of life.

Paul’s adversaries were Jewish and apparently felt that this made them superior not only to Gentiles but also to Greek-speaking Jews. Paul boasted that he was just as Jewish as they were.

2 Corinthians 11:22

22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I. 23 Are they ministers of Christ?—I speak as a fool—I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.
