7. (For we walk by faith, and not by sight.)
8. But we are confident, and have a good will to be absent rather from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9. And therefore we labour, whether absent or present, to please him.
10. For we must all be manifested before the judgement seat of Christ, that every one may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil.
