The saga of "The Secret of GOD", as shown in 2Corinthians 7:1; with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

We are now about to see how Paul sees his motive of ministries mystery within himself. Lets see what maybe revealed about ourselves as well, shall we. For lets face it once we've experienced the renewing and restoration of a heavenly perspective all things temporal change as well. Or they should as our spirit gains from the promises, where our flesh looses ground. And our true identity begins to show.


2Corinthians 7:1, 2-4 "Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man. I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you. Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort(G3874 from G3870), I am exceeding joyful in(G1909) all our tribulation(G2347)." (KJV)


2Corinthians 7:1, 2-4 "Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.

Make room in your hearts for us. We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have taken advantage of no one. I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together. I am acting with great boldness toward you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort(G3874 from G3870). In(G1909) all our affliction(G2374, I am overflowing with joy." (ESV)


2Corinthians 7:1, 2-4 "Dearly beloved, these promises engage us with elevated thoughts and free us from the frustrating efforts of the flesh to compete with innocence of the spirit in our divine devotion. (Paul contrasts the futile efforts of the flesh to the spirit of grace, which is celebrated in the Saint's bliss of righteousness by faith.)

You will have to admit it, we have judged no-one in an unworthy manner, or made anyone feel inferior, neither have we taken advantage of anyone. There is no hint of condemnation in my message; I have always maintained that our hearts are joined with you in death and in life. I am absolutely persuaded about you and take great pride in you; we are [1,G3870]seamlessly one; therefore my joy rises [2,G1909]above all sense of [3,G2347]claustrophobia! (The word, [1,G3870 from G3844 and G2564 ] parakaleo, comes from (G3844) para, a preposition indicating close proximity, a thing proceeding from a sphere of influence, with a suggestion of union of place of residence, to have sprung from its author and giver, originating from, denoting the point from which an action originates, intimate connection; and (G2564) kaleo, meaning to identify by name, to surname. The word, [2, G1909] epi , is a preposition of position, over or against. The word [3, G2347, from G2346] thlipsis means a pressing, to be under severe pressure; and is from (G2346) thlibo, to crowd (literally or figuratively): - afflict, narrow, throng.)

This has indeed been a short study session. But be of cheer the next one will surpass this by a mile or two, the LORD willing, as it shall bring to close chapter 7. Until then may our LORD and GOD share with you and yours his promises with power.
