2 Corinthians 10:11 — KJV
Such an one. See on vs. 2, 7. Paul addresses the person or persons primarily to blame for the trouble. His statement is not so much a threat of what he intends to do upon arrival at Corinth, as a rebuttal of the charge that he is one thing when absent and quite another when present. It would seem that Paul’s trenchant, logical declarations in chs. 10-12 must have convinced his opponents that the position into which their malicious lies had put them was untenable. It was utterly illogical to think that a man such as they described Paul to be could raise up church after church like that at Corinth. Wherever Paul went, he left behind multitudes of Jews and Gentiles won to the Christian faith as evidence of the power of the gospel as preached by him.
