2 Corinthians 9:13

12 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;

13 Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men ;

Ver. 13. For your professed subjection ] While you testify your faith by your works, as they produced the coats that Dorcas made, to prove her a devout woman; and as,Numbers 13:26; Numbers 13:26 , it appeared by the fruits it was a good land. Heathens acknowleged that no people in the world did love one another so as Christians did.
