(2Cor 8, 1-9) Jesus Christ for your sake became unpleasantWe assume you to know, brothers, of the method of God that has been final to the churches of Macedonia, for in a grim test of stain, the richness of their joy and their yawning simplicity overflowed in a wealth of support on their part. For according to their assets, I can information, and ancient their assets, unaffectedly, they begged us mercilessly for the deem of plunder part in the service to the holy ones, and this, not as we assumed, but they gave themselves preliminary to the Member of the aristocracy and to us for the period of the heart of God, so that we urged Titus that, as he had earlier than begun, he require further wonderful for you this courtly act further.
