10. As surely as I have Christ’s truth, my bragging will not be silenced anywhere in Greece.
11. Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows that I do love you.
12. But I’ll go on doing what I’m doing. This will take away the opportunity of those people who want to brag because they think they’re like us.
13. People who brag like this are false apostles. They are dishonest workers, since they disguise themselves as Christ’s apostles.
14. And no wonder, even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
15. So it’s not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants who have God’s approval. In the end they will get what they deserve.
