2Co 5:6-9 KJV Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: [v. 7] (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) [v. 8] We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. [v. 9] Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
