2 Corinthians 11:1-6
Paul Defends His Apostleship
11I wish that you would abear with me in a little bfoolishness, but 1indeed you are bearing with me. 2For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy, for I abetrothed you to one husband, so that I might bpresent you as a pure virgin to Christ. 3But I fear that, as the aserpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be corrupted from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ. 4For if 1one comes and preaches aanother Jesus whom we did not preach, or you receive a bdifferent spirit which you did not receive, or a cdifferent gospel which you did not accept, you dbear this ebeautifully. 5For I consider myself ain no way inferior to the 1most-eminent apostles. 6But even if I am aunskilled in word, yet I am not so in bknowledge; in fact, in every way we have cmade this evident to you in all things.
