SERMON VI.
True Saints, When Absent From the Body, Are Present with the Lord.
2 CORINTHIANS v. 3. —We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
THE apostle in this place is giving a reason why he went on with so much boldness and immovable steadfastness, through such labors, sufferings, and dangers of his life, in the service of his Lord; for which his enemies, the false teachers among the Corinthians, sometimes reproached him as being beside himself, and driven on by a kind of madness. . . .
