2 Corintios 1:12

12 Cambio de planes de Pablo
Podemos decir con confianza y con una conciencia limpia que, en todos nuestros asuntos, hemos vivido en santidad
y con una sinceridad dadas por Dios. Hemos dependido de la gracia de Dios y no de nuestra propia sabiduría humana. Esa es la forma en que nos hemos comportado ante el mundo y en especial con ustedes.

2 Corintios 1:12 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 1:12

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience,
&c.] This rejoicing or glorying of the apostle's in the testimony of their consciences, to the goodness of their hearts, actions, conduct, and behaviour, was not before God, and in his sight, but before men, who were ready to accuse their good conversation in Christ: nor are these words to be considered as they generally are by interpreters, as if it was the testimony of a good conscience, which was the ground of their faith and confidence, that God would deliver them, and was an helping cause, together with the prayers of the saints, of their present deliverance. They refer to the charge exhibited against the apostle, that he had falsified his word in not coming to Corinth according to his promise; under which charge he could sit easy, having a witness within him, which was better than a thousand others, that

we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to
you-wards;
the Corinthians, of which they themselves must be conscious:

in simplicity;
in opposition to double mindedness; they did not say one thing, and mean another, and act contrary to both; their heart and mouth went together, and their conduct agreed with both; what they promised they meant to perform; and where there was a want of performance, it was owing to intervening providences, which hindered, and not to any deceitfulness in them: the conscience of the apostle bore him witness, that he behaved in the simplicity and singleness of his heart; and also in

godly sincerity,
or "in the sincerity of God"; that is, such as God requires, gives, and approves of, and which will stand in his sight, will bear his examination, and to which he gives his testimony; and that his conduct was

not
influenced with fleshly wisdom:
he used no artful sophistical methods to impose upon, and delude persons, for any sinister ends, or worldly advantage:

but by the grace of God;
which was bestowed upon him, implanted in him, and which taught him to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this world.

2 Corintios 1:12 In-Context

10 Efectivamente él nos rescató del peligro mortal y volverá a hacerlo de nuevo. Hemos depositado nuestra confianza en Dios, y él seguirá rescatándonos,

11 y ustedes nos están ayudando al orar por nosotros. Entonces mucha gente dará gracias porque Dios contestó bondadosamente tantas oraciones por nuestra seguridad.

13 Nuestras cartas fueron transparentes, y no hay nada escrito entre líneas ni nada que no puedan entender. Espero que algún día nos entiendan plenamente,

14 aunque por ahora no nos entiendan. Entonces, en el día que el Señor Jesús
regrese, estarán orgullosos de nosotros de la misma manera que nosotros estamos orgullosos de ustedes.
