8 On every side I am hard pressed, yet not hemmed in; perplexed, but not in despair;
9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
10 Wherever I go, I am always carrying about in my body the dying of Jesus, in order that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in this body of mine.

13 For if I was "beside myself," it was to God; of if I am now "of sound mind," it is for you.
14 For the love of Christ overmasters me; because I thus judge that if One has died for all, then all have died;
15 and that he died for all in order that the living may live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again for them.

2 Let each one of us try to make his neighbor happy for his good, unto his upbuilding.
31 What shall we say then, to these things? If God be for us, Who can be against us?
58 So, my brothers beloved, stand firm, immovable, always abounding in work for the Lord, because you know that your toil is not fruitless in the Lord.
