| II Corinthians 10:13 | *But we will not glory beyond our measure: but according to the measure of the rule, which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even to you. Ephesians 4:7. | The apostle here reprehends the vain boasting of false teachers. I will not, like them, say, that I have carried the light of the gospel to the utmost limits of the globe, that I have converted millions of men, avoided an infinity of dangers, performed many miracles, etc. No: I confine myself to the part assigned me by God. I will only glory in having come even to you. This I can do with justice, and without arrogance. Each one has his share, his measure, or his part to cultivate in the vineyard of Christ. (Calmet and Bible de Vence) |
