2 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 10.

For they say his letters are weighty and strong but his bodily presence is weak

and his speech of no account. When I read this verse I am so struck by what I think about Paul the

apostle and what people in Corinth said about Paul the Apostle.

Like this is their description of him,

for they say his letters are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak and his speech of no

account.

I think of Paul, like the greatest missionary, to my knowledge, ever lived,

proclaiming the gospel, writing so much the New Testament,

like I think of him as a pretty stout dude

and pretty strong in all kinds of ways like traveling in all these

kinds of places and I picture him as somebody who could preach like preach pretty

well but people in 2nd Corinthians 10-10

are saying his letters are weighty and strong,

but his bodily presence is weak.

So apparently, they didn't think he was this stout guy and his speech of no account.

Like basically they said dude can't preach and yet Paul was mighty with the gospel.

So get the picture here.

Paul apparently was not a big stout guy

and this incredible preacher.

But he was used mightily by God.
