2 Corintios 13:8

8 Pues nada podemos hacer contra la verdad, sino a favor de la verdad.

2 Corintios 13:8 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 13:8

For we can do nothing against the truth
The apostles had no power, nor could they, nor did they desire to exercise any against such who received the truth of the Gospel in the love of it; who continued in it, walked in it, and held it fast; who worshipped God in Spirit and in truth, and who walked uprightly, and as became the truth; for as the law is not made for such persons, but the reverse, so the authority the apostles had received from Christ was not to be exercised upon such:

but for the truth:
for the sake of defending the truth against those that dropped, denied, and opposed it; and for the honour of it, by chastising, correcting, reproving, censuring, and punishing such, who either contradicted it, or caused it to be blasphemed and spoken evil of.

2 Corintios 13:8 In-Context

6 Espero que reconozcan que nosotros no hemos fracasado.

7 Pedimos a Dios que no hagan nada malo, no para demostrar mi éxito, sino para que hagan lo bueno, aunque parezca que nosotros hemos fracasado.

8 Pues nada podemos hacer contra la verdad, sino a favor de la verdad.

9 De hecho, nos alegramos cuando nosotros somos débiles y ustedes fuertes; y oramos a Dios para que los restaure plenamente.

10 Por eso les escribo todo esto en mi ausencia, para que cuando vaya no tenga que ser severo en el uso de mi autoridad, la cual el Señor me ha dado para edificación y no para destrucción.
