Adding “have to” in 2 Corinthians 13:10 distorts Paul’s message, turning a refusal to dominate into a veiled threat. This subtle mistranslation reflects how deeply we assume coercion is necessary—even in Christ’s name. But Paul’s actual words model accountability, not control—and faithfulness that builds up rather than tears down.

Josiah Hawthorne's question, dissecting the meaning of "all" and "many" in biblical context is intriguing. Romans 5 illustrates how Adam's actions impacted "all" and "many," with Jesus counteracting the verdict for "all" and "many." Examining similar usage by Jesus and Paul reveals a synonymous connotation, suggesting the message of liberation might in fact be for more people than we've often been told.
