THE HUMILITY OF SEEING UNREPENTANT SIN IN THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES "CHRISTIAN"

2 Corinthians 12:21
Paul was fearful that, when he came to Corinth, he would find that many were unrepentant of sin they had been indulging in. He was fearful that he would have to be humiliated and filled with grief. [Perhaps implying embarrassment that such people would actually call themselves "Christian." Perhaps also an implied question: Were all his efforts at Corinth in vain?]

STUDY GUIDE:

[In Christ, we all belong to each other. The actions of one affects all the rest. In this instance, the Corinthian's lack of repentance would result in sorrow, grief, shame, embarrassment, and discouragement - instead of the joy, gladness and encouragement which should be present.]
