Interpretation of 2 Corinthians Chapter 2 Verse 8

In 2 Corinthians 2:8, the Apostle Paul is writing to the church of Corinth and urging them to reaffirm their love for a fellow believer who had previously been disciplined. Paul wants the church to show this person their love and forgiveness and to not be swayed by any ill-will they may still hold toward him.
