2 Corinthians 12:14-18

Here for this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I do not seek what is yours, but you; for children are not responsible to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.

I will most gladly spend and be expended for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?

But be that as it may, I did not burden you myself; nevertheless, devious person that I am, I took you in by deceit.

Certainly I have not taken advantage of you through any of those whom I have sent to you, have I?

I urged Titus to go, and I sent the brother with him. Titus did not take any advantage of you, did he? Did we not conduct ourselves in the same spirit and walk in the same steps?
