This reflects his pastoral heart and the responsibility he feels for the spiritual well-being of the believers. His previous visits to Corinth were marked by challenges, as seen in Acts 18:1-11 and 1 Corinthians 16:5-9, where he dealt with issues of division and immorality. The phrase indicates a sense of apprehension, suggesting that Paul anticipates confronting unresolved issues. my God will humble me before you
Paul acknowledges that God may use the situation to humble him, highlighting his submission to God's will. This humility is consistent with Paul's teachings inPhilippians 2:3-8, where he emphasizes the importance of humility and servanthood, modeled by Christ. The potential humbling could involve Paul witnessing the spiritual failures of the Corinthians, which would be a source of personal sorrow and a reminder of his own limitations as a leader. and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier
Paul anticipates sorrow over those who continue in sin despite previous admonitions. This reflects the ongoing struggle within the Corinthian church, as addressed in1 Corinthians 5:1-13, where Paul dealt with issues of immorality. The grief Paul mentions is akin to the godly sorrow he describes in2 Corinthians 7:9-10, which leads to repentance and salvation. and have not repented of their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery

The sins mentioned—impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery—are often linked in Paul's writings (Galatians 5:19-21,Ephesians 5:3-5) as behaviors that are incompatible with the kingdom of God. The emphasis on repentance underscores the transformative power of the gospel and the necessity of turning away from sin to live a life pleasing to God. Persons / Places / Events 1.

14.What does 'no condemnation in Christ' mean?What Does 2 Corinthians 12:21 Mean I am afraid that when I come again• Paul’s words reveal a genuine, personal fear. He is not doubting God’s power but acknowledging that believers can resist correction (see2 Corinthians 13:2–3;1 Corinthians 4:21). • “When I come again” points to a literal, upcoming visit. Paul intends to confront sin in person, echoing his earlier promise in1 Corinthians 11:34 that unresolved matters would be set in order face-to-face. • His concern shows pastoral love. Like the shepherd inLuke 15:4–7, he is willing to leave comfort behind to recover straying sheep.
my God will humble me before you• Paul foresees the possibility of being “brought low” if Corinth refuses to repent. God exalts the humble (James 4:10), yet He may humble His servants through painful ministry situations. • The phrase mirrors2 Corinthians 10:1, where Paul appeals “in the meekness and gentleness of Christ,” proving that true authority is exercised through humility, not dominance. • By linking his humiliation to God’s action—“my God will humble me”—Paul admits that even an apostle remains under divine discipline (compare1 Corinthians 9:27).
and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier• “Grieved” (cf.2 Corinthians 2:1–4) conveys deep sorrow, not irritation. Spiritual leaders feel heartache when believers persist in sin, just as Jesus wept over Jerusalem inLuke 19:41-44. • “Many who have sinned earlier” points back to issues addressed in1 Corinthians 5:1-2 (incest) and1 Corinthians 6:7-8 (lawsuits). Time has passed, yet some remain unchanged, underscoring that delay in repentance worsens sorrow (Psalm 119:136).
and have not repented of their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery• Repentance is the dividing line. Without it, forgiveness is not applied (Acts 3:19). • The triple description broadens the charge: – Impurity: any moral uncleanness (Ephesians 5:3). – Sexual immorality: specific physical sins (1 Thessalonians 4:3–5). – Debauchery: unchecked indulgence, often public and shameless (Galatians 5:19-21). • Paul expects visible, practical change (Revelation 2:21-22). Grace never excuses sin; it empowers transformation (Titus 2:11-14). • Failure to repent will force Paul to exercise church discipline during his visit (2 Corinthians 13:10;Matthew 18:15-17).
summaryPaul fears that an unrepentant Corinth will force a painful meeting, not because God’s purpose falters, but because believers can stubbornly cling to impurity. He anticipates personal humiliation and grief, yet remains ready to confront sin in love. The verse calls every Christian to swift, sincere repentance and to honor God with lives free from impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery, knowing that unaddressed sin saddens faithful leaders and invites divine discipline. (21) And lest when I come again . . .--The words do not imply more than one previous visit ( Acts 18:1), but it can scarcely be said that they exclude the supposition of another. (See Note on 2Corinthians 13:1.) My God will humble me among you.--We lose the force of the Greek verb by not seeing that it reproduces the word which has been so prominent in the Epistle, and which has appeared in2Corinthians 7:6, as "cast down;" in2Corinthians 10:1 as "base;" in2Corinthians 11:7 as "abasing." There is something almost plaintive in the tone in which the Apostle speaks of the sin of his disciples as the only real "humiliation" which he has to fear. The readings vary; and one of them may be taken as a question:Will God humble me again? There is, however, it is believed, no adequate ground for altering the text. . . . Verse 21. - Humble me among you; rather, in my relation to you. Many which have sinned already, and have not repented; rather, who have sinned before and did not repent. Many had sinned ( 1 Corinthians 6:12-20); some only had repented.
