The God of all comfort. Paul's near-death Asia crisis. Forgiveness of the offender. New covenant glory surpassing old. Treasure in clay jars. Walk by faith not by sight. The great exchange — him who knew no sin made sin for us. Godly grief and the Titus report.

The Macedonian model of radical generosity. Christ who was rich became poor so we might become rich. Equality as the goal. Sow sparingly reap sparingly. God loves a cheerful giver (ἱλαρός). The harvest of thanksgiving to God.

Divinely powerful weapons demolishing strongholds. Taking every thought captive. The super-apostles exposed. Paul's hardship catalog — five floggings, three shipwrecks, one stoning. Third heaven vision. Thorn in the flesh. My grace is sufficient. The Trinitarian benediction.
