"There's Method to My Madness."
2 Cor. 12:11-13:14. Bringing his response to the false charges made against him by both his wayward "spiritual children" and the "false Apostles" at Corinth and by a masterful twist of strategy, Paul surprises them by showing that his "acting the fool" had a divine purpose to it all and that in doing so he was being Christ-like all along. The entire process was designed to accomplish the divine objective and end - purpose for his ministry - and mine - as well!
