  2. Knowing God’s Word Second Corinthians

  3. Knowing God’s Word • Two weeks ago we looked at the book of I Corinthians, an epistle of Paul written to address the problems in Corinth • This week we move onto the book of Second Corinthians • II Corinthians is the 8th book in the NT and is the 3rd of the Pauline Epistles (Romans through Philemon)

  4. Knowing God’s Word • Paul is the author of the book ofII Corinthians, along with Timothy (1:1) • Paul was somewhere in Macedonia when he wrote this letter to the church in Corinth (2:12-13; I Cor. 16:5; Acts 20:1-2) • It appears Titus was the messenger to the Corinthians (8:16-24)

  5. Knowing God’s Word • Paul wrote this letter while on his 3rd missionary journey, not long after the writing of the first epistle to Corinth • This would put the date of writing sometime around the fall of 57 AD • Most believe this would make it Paul’s 5th epistle in order of writing

  6. Knowing God’s Word • Paul wrote this second letter after receiving a comforting report from Titus (7:5-9) • The report had come back that they had repented of their wrongs and made the necessary corrections • However, there were some negatives in that report as well

  7. Knowing God’s Word • There were some false teachers who had come in and tried to undermine Paul • Perhaps these were Judaizing teachers who were doing their best to undo the teachings of Paul concerning the law • Paul spent time having to defend himself against these charges

  8. Knowing God’s Word • We see Paul being questioned about… • …his true apostleship • …his not having come to them already • …his weak appearance and speech • …his not collecting pay for his preaching while with them
