God bless!

2 Corinthians 8

  16 But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of
Titus for you.
  17 For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own
accord he went unto you.
  18 And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel
throughout all the churches;
  19 And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with
us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord,
and declaration of your ready mind:
  20 Avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is
administered by us:
  21 Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also
in the sight of men.
  22 And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved
diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence
which I have in you.
  23 Whether any do enquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellowhelper
concerning you: or our brethren be enquired of, they are the messengers of the
churches, and the glory of Christ.
  24 Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your
love, and of our boasting on your behalf.

2 Corinthians 9

  1 For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to
write to you:
  2 For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them
of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked
very many.
  3 Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in
this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready:
  4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we
(that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.
  5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go
before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice
before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of
covetousness.
