12:14-15 the third time: Paul’s first visit was his initial evangelism at Corinth (Acts 18:1-18); the second was the unscheduled “painful visit” (2 Cor 2:1). Paul contemplates what he hopes will be a happier visit, but there is still some suspicion and a need to clear the air. • I will not be a burden: Paul did not want their money but rather that they would fully accept his authority. That is why he would gladly spend himself for them rather than accept payment from them.
