2 Corinthians 13:1

As Paul closes 2 Corinthians and prepares for his third visit, he calls the church to self-examination—to test whether Christ is truly in them and to live an examined life prayerfully, biblically, and publicly. Pastor Miles teaches that the proof of Christ's presence is not worldly power or harshness but the fruit of the Spirit, and that when self-examination exposes sin, the answer is repentance and confession.
