2 Corinthians 1:20

Paul’s Change of Plans

19For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was proclaimed among you by me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not “Yes” and “No,” but in Him it has always been “Yes.”20For all the promises of God are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him, our “Amen” is spoken to the glory of God.
