2 Corinthians 5:7

(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
5

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

6

Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

7

(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

8

We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9

Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
