24 From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one.
2 Corinthians 11 24 From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;
32
26 in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles,
33
in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren
34

2 Corinthians 4 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. 8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair

Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith;
as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
45
‘I greatly longed to understand Paul’s letter to the Romans…
Night and day I pondered until…I grasped the truth that the righteousness of God is that righteousness whereby, through grace and sheer mercy, He justifies us by faith.

47
had filled me with hate, now it became
to me inexpressibly sweet in greater love. This message of Paul became to me a gateway into heaven.’
