2 Corinthians 11, 365 DAYS OF LOVE #127: ENCOURAGEMENTS P4

PASSAGE: Paul and the False Apostles, Paul Boasts About His Sufferings

MEMORY VERSE: "You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires, to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness" Ephesians 4:22-24

NOTES: (v.3) "But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4For if someone comes to you and preahces a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough."
(v.17) "In this self-confident boasting I am not talking as the Lord would, but as a fool. 18Since many are boasting in the way the world does, I too will boast."
(v.23) "Are they servants of Christ? (I am out of my mind to talk like this). I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again."
(v.30) "If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is to be praised forever, knows that I am not lying."

ACT OF LOVE: Today, me and my two friends (Calvin and Amy) met up at the Del Amo Starbucks this morning to make encouragement notes again for people's cars. Armed with a Delux set of Pentel Markers, a Bible, neon-colored index cards and 2 pads of stickers, we made over 50 encouragement notes in about 2 hours!
Thanks for your help!
