Rejoicing Over One Another

This week we will see the heart of Paul whose desire is the progress of joy and faith in the church in Corinth.  In our passage, Paul's heart is full of joy over the church, once in rebellion to Paul following these false teachers, now repentant and humble.  This change produced great joy as their friendship was restored, they repented of their sin and they extended grace to Paul's messenger, Titus.  In this scripture, we see the joy that ought to exist between members of Christ's church.
