2 Corinthians 7:3; Ye Are In Our Hearts
2 Corinthians 7:3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.
The Apostle Paul has to emphasize his love for the Corinthian Church. He spoke those words of warning by a loving entreaty to protect their spiritual well-being. He is by no means speaking a word of condemnation. There is no ill will or malice towards them but their welfare and interest were in his heart. He had to refute the false accusations against him and his team so that the good seed of the gospel sown will bring forth fruit in their lives.
