Series: 2 Corinthians

2 Corinthians 11:16-31
If you have your Bible, please turn to 2nd Corinthians chapter 11. We're been in 2nd Corinthians for quite a while now, going through verse by verse and looking at what the Lord has to say. And we found that 2nd Corinthians is a very personal letter; the most personal of all Paul's letters. And in this letter he defends himself because the false teachers had maligned his character and his ministry and got the Corinthians to believe negative things about Paul, just a horrible thing.

I have a horse-like laugh, but that's optional. Extremely proficient in Marco Cart for Super Nintendo. 29 years old, but have the facial hair of a 13 year-old. Can eat a lot at one sitting. Oh, also, I can moon-walk quite well.'' That's his personal attributes.
Experience: I'm quite experienced with a McDonald's menu. He said, ''One time I rode a horse, but it bucked me off. I was injured and ended up gaining like 30 pounds. But ...
