12. For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance, and not in heart.
13. For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you.
14. For the love of Messiah constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died.
