2 Corinthians 7:1
The Effect of Paul's First Letter at Corinth
SUMMARY OF II CORINTHIANS 7: Paul's Freedom of Speech to the
Corinthians. His Anxiety Until Titus Came. The Consolation of the
News from Corinth. His Letter Produced Sorrow, Then Repentance. His
Severe Words Not Due to Ill-Will for the Offender, Nor for. Them,
but to Lead Them to Clearing Themselves.
Having therefore these promises. Those named in 2 Corinthians 6:17.
This verse is properly in that connection, and should not have been
separated by the chapter division.
Let us cleanse ourselves. See 2 Corinthians 6:17 above.
From all filthiness of the flesh. All sensual sins, such as those
to which the Corinthians were addicted.
And spirit. The spirit of a man is defiled by such sins as those
named in Galatians 5:19-21.
Perfecting holiness. Every Christian in purifying himself should
strive for greater holiness and constantly seek to attain to the ideal
of which Christ is the example.
