2 Corinthians 10:7
2 Corinthians 10:7-8 The Message (MSG)
You stare and stare at the obvious, but you can’t see the forest for the trees. If you’re looking for a clear example of someone on Christ’s side, why do you so quickly cut me out? Believe me, I am quite sure of my standing with Christ. You may think I overstate the authority he gave me, but I’m not backing off. Every bit of my commitment is for the purpose of building you up, after all, not tearing you down.
2 Corinthians 10:7 King James Version (KJV)
Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.
2 Corinthians 10:7 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

2 Corinthians 10:7 New King James Version (NKJV)
