2 Corinthians6:18
18. Translate, "I will be to you in the relation of a Father, and ye shall be to me in the relation of sons and daughters." This is a still more endearing relation than (2Co 6:16), "I will be their God, and they ... My people." Compare the promise to Solomon (1Ch 28:6; Is 43:6; Re 21:3, 7; Jr 31:1, 9).
Lord Almighty--The Lord the Universal Ruler: nowhere else found but in Revelation. The greatness of the Promiser enhances the greatness of the promises.
