2 Corinthians 12:11-13

Apostolic Credentials Defended

11
I am become foolish. You have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended by you. For I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing.
12
Yet the signs of my apostleship have been wrought on you, in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.
13
For what is there that you have had less than the other churches but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury.
