18Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you. 19But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing. And I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power. 20For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 21What do you want? Will I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?
