Commentary on 2 Corinthians 1:18

Theological / Devotional

As God is true. Paul calls God to witness to the truth of his declaration. The point in debate is the fulfillment of promises. As God’s representative, how could Paul present the unchangeableness of God and His promises, and at the same time speak and act otherwise? As God is true, so Paul has been in his dealings with them. One whose preaching sets forth the complete fulfillment of God’s promises will not practice double-dealing himself.

Our word toward you. Probably Paul’s promise to visit them.
