(NASB) Deuteronomy 19:15 “One witness shall not prevail against a man for any crime or any wrong in connection with any sin he commits; only on the testimony of two or three witnesses shall a charge be established.”

Paul wrote to the Corinthian church of the above fact.  He had been accused of not having authority as an apostle of Christ.  This church doubted Paul’s authentic relationship and call by Christ.

Paul did not dilly-dally, or sweep this accusation under a rug.  He met it head on so the church in Corinth could grow and prosper as followers of Christ.  (2 Corinthians 13:1-3)

Godly love proves that speaking the truth in love
is necessary and needed.

  Proof: it is the power of God that resurrected the crucified Christ Jesus to life.  It is that same power which is effective in the lives of believers.  (2 Corinthians 13:4)

It is not our power.  It is God’s power at work in the middle of our weaknesses.
