Charles Spurgeon Commentary 2 Corinthians 4:10

"always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body." — 2 Corinthians 4:10 (ASV)

Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

Thus did these apostolic saints in a very high sense die daily, and so must we, when called to suffer for the truth's sake, bear about in our body the dying of the Lord Jesus.

Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

The apostles were always ready to die for Christ, and therefore they were enabled to live so much like Christ, imitating his life, and being prepared to follow him even to the death whenever he called them to do so.
