If I were to decide whether to forgive him or not‚ I would choose to not forgive him

First Century Corinth The Epistles to the Corinthians were written by the apostle Paul in the mid 50’s A.D. These were letters written to a church community that‚ according to the book of Acts‚ Paul had a hand in founding on an earlier journey (Acts 18:9).

From this it can be concluded that there is one office with different designations. The word
