2 Cor. 7:9‑16• 9Now I rejoice, not that ye were grieved but that ye were grieved unto repentance, for ye were grieved according to God that in nothing ye might suffer damage from us.
 10For grief according to God worketh repentance to salvation not to be regretted: but the grief of the world worketh out death.
 11For, behold, this very thing that ye were grieved according to God, how much diligence it wrought out in you, nay self-clearing, nay indignation, nay fear, nay longing desire, nay zeal, nay avenging! In everything did ye prove yourselves to be pure in the matter.
 12Wherefore, if also I wrote, [it was] not for the sake of him that wronged, nor for his sake that was wronged, but for the sake of your diligence for us c being manifested unto you before God.
 13On this account we have been encouraged; but d in our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly over the joy of Titus, because his spirit hath been refreshed by you all.

 7on this account we were comforted by you, brethren, in all our distress and tribulation through your faith;
 8because now we live if ye stand fast in [the] Lord.
 9For what thanksgiving can we render again to God for you for all the joy wherewith we rejoice on your account before our God,
 10night and day beseeching exceedingly that we may see your face, and perfect what is lacking in your faith? (1 Thess. 3:6‑10)

• (2) Love "rejoiceth not at iniquity." Alas! The flesh delights in being occupied with evil. Love takes no pleasure in discovering evil or bringing it to light. (3) Love "rejoiceth with the truth." The flesh is unholy and can find pleasure in occupation with evil. Love is holy and finds its joy in being engaged with the truth. Love is not therefore blind, for it knows and appreciates the truth.
