Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - 2 Corinthians 6:10

DISCOURSE: 2026PARADOXICAL EXPERIENCE2 Corinthians 6:10. As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.THEY who form their opinions on mere outward appearances, will almost invariably err. But in nothing will they be more mistaken, than in their judgment of the Christian state. The experience of one that is converted to God is a perfect paradox: and they who are strangers to it, evince that they yet need to learn the very... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 2 Corinthians 6:1-18

We then, as workers together with him ( 2 Corinthians 6:1 ),And what a glorious way to view the ministry. I'm working with Jesus, working together with Him. [We] beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: [but Paul adds] behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) Giving no offense in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed ( 2 Corinthians... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 2 Corinthians 6:1-18

2 Corinthians 6:1 . We then as workers together with the Lord, who has by himself purged our sins, and reconciled all things to himself on the cross, and has commissioned us to continue the ministry of reconciliation we beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. That is, the unspeakable gift of Christ, and his gospel, “the grace of God which brings salvation to all men,” and which demands corresponding returns of repentance, faith, and holiness. For if this gospel do... read more

2 Corinthians 6:6-9By pureness.PurenessThe Greek word--like the cognate form, “holiness”--seems to come from a root denoting reverence. It suggests the thought of the awe with which nature herself regards the presence of purity. All kinds of purity carry an awe with them. Whether it be the purity of aim and motive in all things--the singleness, disinterestedness, unselfishness, which we see rarely but certainly manifested in social, political, ecclesiastical life--that high and noble principle... read more

2 Corinthians 6:9-10As unknown, and yet well known.A catalogue of contradictionsIn these and preceding verses we have the grand characteristics of apostolic life.1. Their difficulties and dangers.2. The methods of their ministry.3. The seeming contradictions that made up their life. Examining these in order, notice--I. Conspicuousness in obscurity.1. God’s people are “hidden ones.” “The world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not.” What conies within the range of the senses the world can... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 2 Corinthians 6:8

8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; Ver. 8. By honour and dishonour, &c. ] It is written on heaven doors (said that martyr), "Do well and hear ill." A bad report is the ordinary reward of very well doing; which made Luther wax proud even of his reproach. Superbus fio, said he, quod video nomen pessimum mihi crescere. Jerome also writeth to Augustine, Quod signum maioris gloriae est, omnes haeretici me detestantur, This is my glory,... read more

A prince in a strange land is little set by, as not known. Unkent, unkist, as the northern proverb hath it.

10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things. Ver. 10. As sorrowful, yet, &c. ] God’s works are usually done in oppositis mediis, in opposing means, as Luther said. Out of the eater he brings meat, &c. This riddle the world understands not. The Fathers observe here, that the apostle brings in the saints’ sorrow with a quasi, as if it were a sorrow in show or conceit only; but when he speaks of their joy,... read more
