“2 Corinthians 13:11-14”

Categories: 2 Corinthians

“Finally, brethren, rejoice, be made complete, be comforted, be like-minded, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.”

---End of Scripture Verses---

A lovely way to end a difficult letter. The final exhortations read like a prayer.

Rejoice in the Lord! There are so many reasons to be filled with joy when you belong to Jesus Christ.

Be made complete. Don’t be satisfied with your level of spirituality and faithfulness. Strive for growth.

Be comforted. The God of all comfort will see you through the roughest of times.

Be like-minded. All of God’s children are in this together. We need one another and we need to stand for the truth, equally together.

God and His love and peace be with you.

Be affectionate to one another. I’ll take a firm handshake or warm hug over a holy kiss though!

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit be with you.

Lord willing we will have some introductory remarks on Paul’s letter to the Galatians for tomorrow.

Have a great day!
