It says in II Corinthians 6:14, "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?"

One reason the Bible might say that is, if a person who believes is married to a person who does not believe, the person who does not believe may have a great influence on the faith of the person who does believe.

It says in II Corinthians 11:25, "Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep."

Answer: "My grace"

It says in II Corinthians 12:9, "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

Grace is often defined as God giving people what they don't deserve. Likewise, mercy is often defined as God not giving people what they do deserve.

Answer: peace

It says in II Corinthians 13:11, "Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you."
