2 Corinthians

Paul defends his apostleship and teaches on the power of God in weakness and the importance of generous giving.

Chapter 9

KJV - 2 Corinthians 9:5

Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.

So, I decided it was important to encourage my friends to prepare your generous gift ahead of time, so you could give it willingly, not because they wanted to be greedy.
