2 Corinthians 10:3-6

Bible Text

[3] For though we walk in the flesh, we don't wage war according to the flesh; [4] for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, [5] throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ; [6] and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience will be made full.

Corinth was a major Greek port city in the Roman province of Achaia, where Paul had founded a church marked by spiritual immaturity and opposition to his apostolic ministry. From this setting, Paul describes the church’s struggle as spiritual rather than worldly, calling believers to take every thought captive to Christ.
