Commentary on 2 Corinthians 6:13

Theological / Devotional

For a recompence. Paul considers the Corinthian believers his spiritual children (1 Cor. 4:14, 15), and as their spiritual father he has poured upon them a full measure of paternal love. In return, he longs for their love. Will they not enlarge their hearts enough to make room for him? To do so will be to solve all the problems and to remove all the ill feelings between them (cf. Gal. 4:12; 1 Thess. 2:11).
