Andrew Stensaas continues in 2 Corinthians 1:12-24, examining Paul’s defense against accusations of selfishness, unholiness, and inconsistency. Paul asserts a pure conscience through simplicity, godly sincerity, and God’s grace. He remained consistent in preaching Jesus Christ alone for salvation, unwavering in God’s promises. Paul’s confidence in Christ, established and anointed by God, equipped him for service. Christians are called to live similarly, with a pure conscience, a consistent message, and trust in Christ.
