@ClaireLBrook @lyfetreker Bible is sufficient for me, as mentioned in 2 Timothy 3:16.
Paul was given a vision by God & shared it to the Corinthians in 2 Cor 12:1-10, would that #profit anything for Corinthians? Surely it would, to end the false apostles & co. (1 Cor 11:13) bragging about their "gift."

@ClaireLBrook @lyfetreker But Paul didn't count that vision as if an important message that's more important than his gospel (2 Corinthians 12:1), because if he really did, then he would have taken God's glory and replaced it with his own pride:
"For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool…
"For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool…
@ClaireLBrook @lyfetreker …for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, …
And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, …
@ClaireLBrook @lyfetreker …the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure."
