2 Corinthians 13:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ You are asking me to prove that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak in dealing with you. He is powerful among you. ⁴ It is true that Christ was nailed to the cross because he was weak. But Christ lives by God’s power. In the same way, we share his weakness. But by God’s power we will live with Christ as we serve you.

⁵ Take a good look at yourselves to see if you are really believers. Test yourselves. Don’t you realize that Christ Jesus is in you? Unless, of course, you fail the test!
