Sermons About Infirmity
Glorifying In Infirmity
Paul is recounting his hardships in life. These troubles came not only from things without but also from carrying the burden of concern for all of the churches. He is boasting/glorying in these things in order to establish his credibility with the Corinthian believers because false teachers had come in and were attacking his authority. He is glorying, not in spite of but because of these afflictions and infirmities - he says this four times (2 Corinthians 11.30, 12.5, 12.9, 12.10).
