17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: by using my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes,[a] and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

15 Nevertheless, on some points I have written to you rather boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God(A) 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.(B) 17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to boast of my work for God. 18 For I will not be so bold as to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to win obedience from the gentiles, by word and deed, 19 by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit,[a] so that from Jerusalem and as far around as Illyricum I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.(C) 20 Thus I make it my ambition to proclaim the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, so that I do not build on someone else’s foundation,(D)

15 Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me(A) 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles.(B) He gave me the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God,(C) so that the Gentiles might become an offering(D) acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

17 Therefore I glory in Christ Jesus(E) in my service to God.(F) 18 I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles(G) to obey God(H) by what I have said and done— 19 by the power of signs and wonders,(I) through the power of the Spirit of God.(J) So from Jerusalem(K) all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.(L) 20 It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel(M) where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.(N)

The Judgment at Christ’s Coming

This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God and is intended to make you worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are also suffering.(A) For it is indeed just of God to repay with affliction those who afflict you and to give relief to the afflicted as well as to us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels(B) in a fiery flame, inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.(C) These will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, separated from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might,(D) 10 when he comes to be glorified by his saints and to be marveled at on that day among all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven(E) in blazing fire(F) with his powerful angels.(G) He will punish(H) those who do not know God(I) and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.(J) They will be punished with everlasting destruction(K) and shut out from the presence of the Lord(L) and from the glory of his might(M) 10 on the day(N) he comes to be glorified(O) in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.(P)
