1. This is the third time I am coming to visit you (and as the Scriptures say, “The facts of every case must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses”).
2. I have already warned those who had been sinning when I was there on my second visit. Now I again warn them and all others, just as I did before, that next time I will not spare them.
3. I will give you all the proof you want that Christ speaks through me. Christ is not weak when he deals with you; he is powerful among you.
