But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates.
But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates.
But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate.
But it is my hope that you will have no doubt that we are truly Christ's.
But I trust that ye will know that we are not reprobates.
But I hope that you will know that we aren't disqualified.
But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate.
Ye shall know that we are not reprobates - Ye have had, and ye shall have, the fullest proof that I have preached the true faith among you; and that God has confirmed it by his testimony; and thus that I am proved and manifested to be what I ought to be, and shown to be approved of God.
But I trust ... - The sense of this verse is," Whatever may be the result of your examination of yourselves, I trust (Greek I hope) you will not find us false and to be rejected; that is, I trust you will find in me evidence that I am commissioned by the Lord Jesus to be his apostle." The idea is, that they would find when he was among them, that he was endowed with all the qualifications needful to confer a claim to the apostolic office.
13:6 And I trust ye shall know - By proving yourselves, not by putting my authority to the proof.
