2 Corinthians 13:5 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Prove yourselves — Whether ye are such as can, or such as cannot, bear the test — This is the proper meaning of the word which we translate, reprobates. Know ye not yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you — All Christian believers know this, by the witness and by the fruit of his Spirit. Some translate the words, Jesus Christ is among you; that is, in the church of Corinth; and understand them of the miraculous gifts and the power of Christ which attended the censures of the apostle.

2 Corinthians 13:5

5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
