*Correction:* The reference to the part of the letter where Paul says the letter "was written with anguish and tears" is written as 2 Cor. 1:3-4. It should be corrected to 2 Cor. 2:3-4.
Sure
Had you thought about turning these amazing drawings into posters and selling them on your website. They would be super popular, would be a great visual reminder for an office or bible study area, and would help you fund other projects.
It both amazes (and saddens) me that even after 2,000 yrs us believers often have these same problems.
I know right. I have seen these problems in churches and even more so in first Corinthian‘s
Yep. That's why these epistles are included in scripture. God knew that humans never change. Paul's rebukes and corrections would need to be echoed throughout the ages. So God providentially arranged for these epistles to be included in the canon.
@@cerebralfaithvideo Exactly. Cliques and favouritism in churches are still issues we struggle with today.
Agree!
We are still people.
Thanks for making this youtubechannel.. Its a very intellectual visual presentation.. Thanks for providing us with all these..
Awesome
It's amazing how little has changed in the modern church!
Basically nothing has changed people are still gossiping like DEMONS.😂
How sad BUT how right you are.
And neither has Jesus or His Holy Spirit. He still transforms us, call us to live in community, strive for patience and unity. I am believing for Jesus to do a great work through his Church. That we may become a brighter light to the world; that when they see us, they see Jesus. AMEN!
It seems 2 Corinthians is very relevant to the modern church.
Speaking to us through time.
Wow.
Praise God!
So true
With sooo much TV watching in my formative years, reading the bible has been challenging for me. Then comes the guilt of not reading. This Bible Project is like a trailer for the passages; now I have that much more emotion and anticipation when delving into the pages. I sincerely thank you.
Amennnn
For new Christians such as myself, I share a fabulous book.. “hermeneutics is for everyone”. By Daniel Goephrich. A fabulous book that teaches in simple fashion, how to study the bible. Its a great way to learn. And then i add great clips like this one. Hugs my sisters and brothers.
For further information check Pattern of the Universe
Don't feel guilty for not reading the Word! Feel encouraged! God has more in store for you
For a new believer who find bible too bulky and tedious, this channel came as a gift for all ages. christians or non-christian. I am locking my eyes on every project here.
Nameless Day try my channel, reading Bible one chapter at a time.
Study yourselve...
Fenera Taye Try audio Bibles, different versions until one catches your attention. I’m obsessed with the dramatized NIV version, it’s like hearing a movie.
I'm a visual learner, so this is also really appealing and good for comprehension
There is a Bible app called YouVersion which you can also listen to..
I love the point you bring out that the gospel is the story of God's great generosity. (Love your generosity btw in making these clips freely available -thankyou!)
Currently reading 2 Corinthians & this video just blessed me! What a supplement to the Word of God! God bless y'all!
Let's Praise God
Did you read 1 Cor. first? I wanna read through 2 Corinthians before reading 1
God bless
I cried when I heard that God values humility and weakness because his love and power were made known through the death and resurrection of Jesus. This is so different from the values of the culture I have and am living in, where you have to boost about yourself and consider a lot about mianzi / how people look at you. I am autistic and have always been trying to be on par with the social standard that the people around me are living up to. It is a never ending torture for me, as I can only change my behaviour to conform but never my root. The fact that God values humility and weakness means that I can be ‘stupid’ and ‘rude’ like how they have mocked me and that simply come to God admitting that I am weak and he is strong. This world is wicked and complicated, but through Jesus we can be reconnected with God and can have something to hold on to. I am really grateful for the Bible and for God’s grace.
Great summary. I read 2nd corinthians and honestly, it took me so long to finish it that I couldn't grasp some of the main ideas of it. I did get a few memorable nuggets here and there. Thank you for blessing us with this summary clip. YOu brought to light and made clear things that were initially dim to me, such as the idea of ears being turned away from Paul because of his appearance, socioeconomic status, etc. However, these are the things that made him so similar to Jesus. Sometimes expectations create barriers that prevent people from experiencing the gospel of Jesus and who he really is. It happened when Jesus was performing miracles on the Earth and it continues to happen now. Jesus presenting himself in such a humble manner, and Paul as well, takes the exclusivity out of Christianity. He came for the poor and rich, the broken and the confused, the educated and the uneducated. And no matter what your background is...He can use you for his purpose.
I love it.
Thank you! for some reason 2 corinthians felt difficult to read. I would not have comprehended nearly as much without this video. Blessings to this ministry!
Who knew learning about the historical background of the NT books could be so fun??? Thanks guys!
The super-apostles made me giggle 😂
@Ryan W We've all seen these types no matter what the church is.
@Ryan W You're not wrong though. Yhere are a lot of those types. Super perfect when in church but doing less saintly things once they leave.
Whats worse are the 'super worship singers' Listen to me, I sing like a bird. Paul sucks...
Thank you I'm a visual learner God bless you, I'm 57and your never too late to receive his goodness
So so thankful for the Bible Project! I am a Chaplain in a retirement community, and use these videos to breakdown the Bible for my residents and myself! Extremely helpful. Very grateful for those who put these videos together! God bless you and the work you are doing. Keep it up!!
I love how it's all summed up in one big drawing!
anointed, your voice is. it is made to be super clear and understandable. I thank God for these teachings
In my experience unfortunately some of the Russian church is caught up in the same trap as the Corinthians. Please pray for them.
Thank you so much for these video’s guys. It’s such a great part of my own study of the Bible. You are doing an incredible job! Never stop!! It is highly appreciated! May God bless you and expand this to unimaginable levels!
So-oo much to ponder and meditate on in 2 Corinthians. That is, when you actually read Scripture, not as much when you watch "Read Scripture."
Mackie & Co. are expert about painting the broad strokes. But the true delight in this letter is the in-between details, none of which are mentioned in this vid. Mackie focuses on Paul's plight regarding the Corinthians trying to discredit him because he wasn't rich or fancy. But that's only a sliver of the whole story.
More themes left out: we become a new creation when we're saved (chpt 5), God dwells among us when we're pure (chpt 6/7), finding repentance through godly vs. worldly sorrow (chpt. 7), destroying strongholds (chpt. 10), being a cheerful giver (chpt. 9), how to know if you're really saved? (chpt. 13). So much incredible content, all covered right here.
ALSO, did you know Paul's spirit was catapulted up to heaven and back (chpt 12, cf. Acts 9). No other NT letter talks about that. And guess what he discovered there...?
Please use Bible Project vids to supplement (not supplant) your Bible studies/quiet times. God bless!
This can be depressing when you realized nothing has changed in over 2000 years.
So grateful to live in a country where we can openly worship Jesus!!!
I would like to thank you for all the hard work on making the "kind of hidden" meanings of the Bible available for everyone. I am not a Christian in fact but a Muslim who's a fan of Jesus, and your videos make me realize how the holy bible is so full of great teachings.
Moreover, your videos never fail to show the hope that's in the scriptures, and that's something the world has always needed and will always need.
Again thanks a lot. This really helps me while I'm going through the books that make this great holy Book.
Kamal
Rattles Nake I will pray for you that you should God willing comd to the truth, God bless you!
God loves you very much, keeping believing!
God bless you! may the Holy Spirit continually inspire us to know more about the Gospel of Jesus!
peace be upon you
Rattles Nake it’s not just A great Holy Book but THE HOLY BOOK
MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH THESE PROJECTS

Ha ha ha
:D
If I may good sirs...
Offer a "two cents".
On
8:12 "... God values humility & weakness..."
I dont think it is weakness, it is meekness (quite, gentle, submissive; patient, longsuffering).
God values humility and meekness.
I don't think God wants us to be weak, He wants us to be meek.
And last not least, thank you for sharing these wonderful videos (words).
Gin,
I dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost the account password. I love any help you can offer me
Love you guys! I pray that you will keep glorifying CHRIST JESUS according to HIS will!
I am blessed. This is making impact in the Caribbean. May God bless you for your hard work for his kingdom. Keep loving and allowing that love to manifest in even more services for God.
So thankful for this analysis as I am a beginner and on my spiritual journey 🙏🏿
thank you God and thank you bibleproject💙💚💛💜❤
I was struggling to understand 2 Corinthians until I watched your video! Thank you so much!
I enjoy how you share the gospel and the life of the Bible people in the characters of real Bible people.
Thank you so much for making these videos 🕊✨
This is a blessing to me,as I find it difficult to correlate the book of Corinthians , I was bored but I didn't know how this came up during my reading of chapter 9. I was blessed. Thanks for the review
Wow, we haven't changed a bit.
We love super wealthy apostles because they preach to our flesh.
How can I get this resource? Is it available in PDF?
Thank you
I have to admit I was not feeling 2 Corinthians too much at all. So just before I finished the Book, I thought best to take a pause and see what it was really all about because I was obviously missing the point. So glad I did and definitely glad I did so through your channel. I am now going to re-read it with new eyes. Thanks guys!
I just love this channel so much .you explained this 2 corinthians so well and I used it to explain to my children
so the letters of Paul to the Corinthian, were basically like a warning for lukewarm christians?
If this guy was my Sunday school teacher I would have been so informed in understanding how to rightly divide the word of God.
I m currently in a Bible study going through the books of the new testament. Ging through your overviews on each book - before, during, and after reading is so very beneficial.Your illustrations and simple verbiage helps me to create my own outline and more completely understand the truth of each book. Thank You. :o)
Paul really seems to Jesus like Plato to Socrates, except more confident and more certain about Jesus's cause.
I dont think Plato had to drink the hemlock. You preach the truth they kill ya quick. You know how great a man is by how fast they brew the hemlock
Glória a Deus!
Ironically, when pressed former president Trump claimed this was his favorite part of the bible
...before you wreck yourselves.
Mike Williams checkity check yo'selves
Cuz sin is bad for your health?
These videos are so great, I love to read them after having read the associated book or passages in the Bible, and they really open my eyes to what I've just read and allow me to understand the context or what I've read. Very cool!
Nice Work! Really well put together. Glory to God! Really enjoyable. Who draws these pictures?
Hi! Please do Galatians! My study group is reading the book right now and it would be so helpful to have a guideline 😁😁
Most of our churches today need a "painful visit" from Paul.
It’s sad to me how many comment there are about how “the church has never changed”. The church is Gods chosen instrument to bring light into peoples hearts, and is the bride of Christ! If we don’t believe in the church and how beautiful she is, it’s no wonder we’ve never seen a change. Let’s try being encouraging rather than being self righteous
I think what God is calling me to do may be similar to your work, and while it may be fun, and very helpful I need to focus on what these books, which God has brought to my attention, means to me. So after I'm done writing I'll be back to enjoying your videos!💕
surrounded by christians my hole life..now im homless and poor living in a van. why.
I pray for you @Synrgiii, that you can find ways to celebrate God’s provision in your life, no matter the storms, or disasters that surround you.
2 Corinthians is a calling card to the Amerian church today!
We value good speakers with wealth and status more than the humble servants of God who point us to christ and nothing else.
Those seeking wealth, fame, and status by using the word of God are no different than the pharisees christ condemned 2k years ago!
You are a gift from God. May the God of the Universe bless your ministry abundantly for His glory! Well done, good and faithful servants!
I cried to this, wow. I'm no where to being like Christ and a man like Paul , filled with love
None of us are. Thats why we must die to self and allow Christ to live through us, in us forever...
Yet we are so loved
Wow I can see parellels between our time and ancient corrinth. Funny how they had charismatic leaders misguiding the corrinthians...in today's time I think of the mega churches with wealthy millionaire preachers. I wonder what Paul would think of them today.
Paul said in his 2nd letter to the Corinthians "so that Satan will not outsmart us. For we are familiar with his evil schemes." 2 Corinthians 2:11 (NLT)
thanks! Paul's letters had always been difficult to understand for me, until now. i just couldn't understand the context! this is a great video. May God bless you!
I love your videos and am so thankful for your hard work! They are so helpful for understanding Jesus and the gospel :) Any chance they could be translated to spanish?? I live in Nicaragua and think these videos would be super helpful here too for my comminity!!
I am a bit dubious that it is Christians who are the slave captives led in the triumph (2:14), I feel like that would be the powers of darkness rather, and that is what it says in my Orthodox Study Bible
It is also the book which reveals Titus to us. Titus, a member of Paul's church-planting team is mentioned more in 2 Corinthians than anywhere else.
The pharisees didn't have the whole Bible memorized they had the Torah memorized. The Torah is the first 5 books in the Old Testament.
ISAIAH 47 - 2 CORINTHIANS
“Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame will be seen; I will take vengeance, and I will not arbitrate with a man.” (Isaiah 47:3)
WORDS BY: JESUS
"Many valuable lessons can be learnt when it comes to authority in the Church and one of the biggest lessons is honour. There is always a set order of things and in kingdom you must know your place. Your honour towards authority should be no different to David’s honour to Saul. His approach was always with utmost respect, and most importantly, he would not dare to exploit him nor speak a word against him. Was Saul right? Certainly not. David could have retaliated but chose to submit thus the kingdom was granted to him. The kingdom cannot be won through pride but only through meekness, for this is the fruit I am seeking in the body. This is the problem the Corinthians had as some accused Paul to be morally weak due to his meekness. Just because you have an opinion it does not make it right thus you must be careful in what manner you voice it, if you voice it. Many times I will require your silence and bowing your head, for there are many things you will learn in doing so. This will make your rewards many times greater, as I will raise up the humble and cast the wicked down to the ground.
There is a way to approach your brethren and it does not come through accusation or gossip. That need to feel like you need to express yourself must die if you want to progress further in My kingdom. Having opinions is not an issue but to loose them so freely as if they are of high esteem will only cause yourself to fall in an Isaiah 47:3 curse, just as Ham was cursed for uncovering his father’s nakedness. Any attempt to expose for the wrong reason will come back upon you. When you approach your brethren, let it be with humility knowing that I give grace and great rewards to the humble."
Red Eagle - Any wrong you try to justify will also come back to you. All reap and sow.
I rarely comment on RUclips. But having watched many videos from your channel, I really want to thank you for the good work and it really helps me a lot as a new believer. Keep up the good work and god bless!
So the thorn in Paul symbols weakness? Humbleness?
The Bible are amazing stores repeating the same theme over and over again because we are stubborn people.
Thank you so much for explaining the summary of II Corinthians understandably. It’s helpful as always. Thanks!!!
So basically almost every church in the US are Corinthians. Sad
This even makes me to read the Bible more. Thank you. 🙏🙏
The Bible is strange that way. The more you read the more you want to read it. The less you read, that harder it is to open it.
6:00 - AMEN!
Always a huge blessing; thank God for you, The Bible Project! :)
THIS is Trump’s favorite book of the Bible. Please, think about that deeply. He is the “super apostle” that makes Corinthians betray Jesus’s values
That's the danger we face here in this day and age. Where we have a person who has the potential power to bring the Church and Jesus back to the nation, but does it to glorify himself and not Christ. Whether he truly does believe is between him and Christ but if he's able to put Christ first in this nation, focus on Christ himself and not the person who signed a law that made that change.
Great video as always! I know y'all are super busy, but would you guys ever do discussions on specific topics in the future? I'm talking about "controversial" stuff like abortion, homosexuality, women in church, etc. Maybe in the form of theme videos or podcasts or Q+Rs which trace back their biblical history/contexts and explain how modern day readers should interpret these concepts? Thanks!
Sandy that would be super helpful to a lot of people!
Sandy There's a podcast I stumbled across called The Briefing that you might find interesting. It addresses a lot of the topics you mentioned from a biblical perspective, so if that's something you're looking for go check it out :)
Me Lo where can i find the Podcast?
✝ Jesus is Lord ✝
Amen.
These presentations are incredibly inspiring, informative and well done. Thanks!
Thank you this has really helped me understand more while I study my Bible, be Blessed
The Corinth situation still quite prevalent today, and the super apostles still exist
At the second letter part it says "2 Cor 1:3-4" it should be "2 Cor 2:3-4". Just noticed that and thought I would let you guys know! Love everything you do!
wow thank you so much. now i come and watch your videos before i read a book in the bible so helpful ❤❤❤
Same here brotha! :D
ahhh the timing of this is amazing!!! thank you
i had to pause this beautifully video to cry alittle , listened to some Gospel music and just imagined me praying and praising God with my enemies , hallelujah Amen ❤️
Will we get a video on the giants in scripture, and nephilim?
awesome idea
I was going to ask!!! That would be amazing and apocrypha helps explain more about God's will
Thank you so much for these beautiful illustrations,makes it easier. I really love it
The Cubs last night, and now this! Grand slams! Thank you!
Thanks for clarifying. Even after all these years of reading the Bible, I feel like there are always things I miss, and I sometimes have trouble remembering the context....especially the way Paul writes with midrash and diatribe and all that jazz. I find the more I understand about a passage of Scripture, the more I get out of reading it, so thanks a lot. Do you have these for the whole Bible? I might just head over to an overview of Genesis and work my way through Revelation.
In my dreams I had a purple dragon named corrine without words it spoke to me and we flew off into the night under a full moon.
Next time, don’t eat onion’s before bed.
Praise the Holy Spirit
Amen!
Yes charismatic churches needs to read 2nd Corinth...prosperity gospel and all are just about how attractive a speaker is.
You guys are amazing! I love your work. I think there’s a typo in this video. The referee under “The Second Letter” at approximately 47 seconds in, should be 2 Cor. 2:3-4, not 1:3-4.
Sir, i really admire you for what you are doing to teach these so hard to understand verses n stories of the bible in the simplest way possible.God bless you.really appreciate your job..love n prayers.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
The name Paul meaning 'small'
so meet your new super power
"weakness"
small and weak
yet
with Mighty God power...
sweet...
i love this upside down Kingdom
let's be small and weak because is so fragile and love able .
In 2nd Corinthians 10 it is good to see that Paul had changed from using physical weapons of the sword from his former life to now using spiritual weapons to "speak truth to power"
Haha. “Two Corinthians.” I almost spit my coffee out.
gg
Movie 'Standup Guys' Al Pacino quotes 2 Corinthians when he is hitting up Christopher Walken for a 'loan'. Walken gives him the money and says in his weird quirky voice. "I LOVE Corinthians" I hear that voice in my head now every time I open up the book.
Hi classmates, see you again next year.
Giving a study lesson on this book tuesday! thank you so much.
Not sure if it's my headset, but I constantly here "Ji-us" instead of "Jesus"...it's weird.
Yup
I noticed it too
Generally speaking, he says the first s really soft.
I am a visual learner so thank you for taking the time to draw everything! I greatly appreciate the effort to make these videos.
Currently reading 2nd Corinthians, had a lot of questions but this video has helped me understand the stories and teachinga of this book well. Thank you very much for this!
Amazing lead up to the super apostle comparison to Paul's affliction. THank you Jesus for your work and your work you did in Paul to make sure us Gentiles can be included in the inheritance. Dirty but clean in Christ.
Excellent work guys! Thanks
Thank you very much for this! I'm currently studying 2corinthians and this made it easier to understand❤️
