2 Corinthians 12:13-18: For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong. Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you:for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved. But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile. Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you? I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps? A Word study of a Kingdom-minded preacher and truly mighty Church leader...Please notice his mindset; very Christ-like. Now, compare it with the majority of todays preachers, and in particular - Publicly known leaders....The differences in believing, attitude, thinking and mindsets speak loudly - The words by the Apostle Paul clearly evidence an entering into the Kingdom of God, and the reason why the Apostles and Early Church turned the known world upside down with mighty Kingdom power and impact (spiritually transforming communities, provinces, regions...Indeed the entire known world); and why todays Church and its leadership have failed so miserably in comparison...We cant expect to do the same works and greater than Jesus (John 14:12), if we will not die to self and walk in the same humble Christ-like mindset.
