It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. Gal 1:121Jn 5:202Co 12:71Co 10:232Co 12:112Co 8:10Act 18:9Act 22:17-21 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. Act 22:171Th 4:17Ezk 8:1-3Rev 4:22Co 11:11Isa 57:151Ki 18:12Isa 45:24-25 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. Luk 23:43Ezk 31:9Rev 2:7 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities. 1Co 2:32Co 11:302Co 12:9-10 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me. 2Co 11:162Co 10:8-102Co 11:312Co 12:111Co 3:51Co 3:9-102Co 1:182Co 12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. Num 33:55Jdg 2:32Ch 32:25-261Co 5:5Gal 4:13Gen 32:311Ti 3:6Dan 5:20 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Php 4:132Co 12:10Isa 40:29-31Eph 3:16Jos 1:9Isa 43:21Co 10:13Heb 4:16 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 2Co 12:9Eph 6:10Rom 5:32Co 13:4Jas 1:21Pe 1:6-72Co 6:4Luk 6:22
I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing. 2Co 11:51Co 15:8-102Co 11:1Eph 3:81Co 3:221Co 3:4-72Co 1:62Co 11:16-17 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds. Rom 15:18-192Co 4:21Co 1:5-71Co 14:181Co 9:1-22Co 11:42Co 11:6Jhn 4:48 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong. 1Co 9:121Co 9:61Co 9:15-182Co 11:7-92Co 12:14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
