The Anointing requires intimate fellowship with God through the practice of abiding.

    What is the purpose of the 2corinthians? ›

    The central theme of 2 Corinthians is the relationship between suffering and the power of the Spirit in Paul's apostolic life, ministry, and message. Paul's opponents had questioned his motives and his personal courage. They argued that he had suffered too much to be a Spirit-filled apostle of the risen Christ.

    What are the lessons of 2 Corinthians? ›

    Second Corinthians tells us that comfort comes through affliction (2 Cor. 1:3–7), sufficiency through insufficiency (3:1–6), life through death (4:7–15), blessing through suffering (6:3–10), salvation through grief (7:2–10), abundance through poverty (8:1–2, 9, 14), and boasting through hardship (11:16–30).

    What is 2 Corinthians in a nutshell? ›

    In 2 Corinthians you'll find a letter written by an apostle to a church that he planted—a church that needed a father's advice. In many ways, this letter serves as an apostolic manual for the body of Christ, replete with supernatural encounters, glory, love, and truth.

    What's the main issue in 2 Corinthians? ›

    What happens when you are anointed by God? ›

    What is the difference between the gift and the anointing? ›

    While the gifts are released by faith, the anointing is released thru compassion/love – Matthew 14:14 – And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.

    What triggers the anointing? ›

    Activating the Anointing

    God's power is always present, but it only manifests when people exercise their faith. It is faith that activates the anointing. We see an example of this in the story of the paralytic in Luke chapter 5.

    What does it mean to visit orphans and widows in their affliction? ›

    Visiting orphans and widows is so much more than just taking a trip to another country to hand out some food to people you will never see again; visiting orphans and widows means to look after, to take care of, to provide for, with the implication of continuous responsibility.

    What does it mean that the husband is sanctified by the wife? ›

    As mentioned before, this sanctification does not mean that the unbelieving spouse (or their children) are automatically saved by virtue of marriage, but it does mean that God blesses that particular household in a very special way.

    What does the widow's offering teach us? ›

    Justus Knecht gives a common moral lesson from the widow's mites: Good Intentions. From the words of our Lord spoken in praise of the poor widow, we learn that in our good works everything depends upon the intention. The widow had given more than all the rich; for she parted with her whole fortune.

    What does 2 Corinthians 1/20 say? ›

    20 For all of God's promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory. 20 Whatever God has promised gets stamped with the Yes of Jesus.
