I Argument

Ch. Paul’s Character

4

Boasting

I Cor IX. Am I not an Apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord?

are not ye my work in the Lord?

I Cor IX. 12: ib. 15. 16. 19. 22. 12―If others be partakers of this power over you,

are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things,

lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

15. But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that

it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man

should make my glorying void.

16. For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is

laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel!

19. For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that

I might gain the more.

22. To the weak, became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things

to all men, that I might by all means save some.

Rom. XV. 24 25. 26. 27.

Proves that this letter written from Corinth was written after he had received the contribution from Macedonia and Achaia that he speaks of in & Cor and before the date of the last of those letters to the Corinthians. But I Cor. was written before his separation from Barnabas as per Acts XV. 39: for he speaks of Barnabas as with him.

I Cor. IX. 6

I Cor. was it written?

In Rom XV. 25. He says he is going to Jerusalem to minister to the Saints, viz. to deliver the contribution of Macedonia & Achaia.

Was this the visit with Barnabas (Visit II) or after the rupture with Barnabas? If so, it never was accomplished. Unless it was the Visit with Barnabas when they went on the other errand.

Epistle to the Ephesians is stated at the end as being written from Rome — if so affords no evidence of the perjury — So likewise that to the Philippians — and that to the Colossians

Thessalonians I & II are stated at the end as written from Athens. N.B. Per Acts XVII. 1 He is then for the first time at Thessalonica

Per Acts XVII. 15. He is then at Athens.

Per Acts XVIII. then (for the first time?) at Corinth.

Hebrews which stands last and is stated as being written from Italy. They came after the above. These are the last to sets of persons except to come then those to Timothy, Titus & Philemon.

Chronology continued

I Cor. XVI. 1. Now concerning the collection for the saints as I have given order to the Churches of Galatia, even so do you.

N.B. This must have been before the date of the Epistles we have to the Galatians. This being before the visit to Rome that written from Rome, after Visit III to Jerusalem.

Obsequiousness called for.

Competitors struck[?] at

I. Cor. IV. 15 to 26. For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the Gospel.

16. Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

17. For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every Church.

18. Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.

19. But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.

20. For the kingdom of God, is not in word, but in power.

21. What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love and in the spirit of meekness?

I. Cor. V. 1 to 13. 1. It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one sh d have his father’s wife.

2. And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.

3. For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present concerning him that hath so done this deed,

4. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6. Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

7. Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

8. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness: but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9. I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators.

10. Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with y e covetous, or extortioners, or with idolators; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

11. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

12. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?

13 But them that are without God judgeth. therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
