What does 2 Corinthians 13:8 mean?
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.
