2 Corinthians 10:8 in Context — 2 Corinthians 10
6 E estamos prontos para vingar toda desobediência, quando vossa obediência for completa.
7 Olhais [as coisas] pela aparência? Se alguém confia de si mesmo que é de Cristo, pense o tal outra vez consigo mesmo que, assim como ele é de Cristo, assim também nós somos de Cristo.
8 Porque se eu também ainda mais me quiser orgulhar do nosso poder que o Senhor nos deu para edificação, e não para vossa destruição, não me envergonharei;
9 Para que não pareça que eu [queira] vos amedrontar por meio de cartas.
10 Porque eles dizem que as cartas são em verdade graves e fortes, mas a presença do corpo é fraca, e a palavra desprezível.
