# Connecting Statement:
Paul explains his sincere expectation with pure motives to come see the believers in Corinth after his first letter.
# Because I was confident about this
The word "this" refers to Paul's previous comments about the Corinthians.
# so that you might receive a second favor
Paul hoped to visit the Corinthians two times. Each visit would be a favor to the people. Alternate translation: "so that you might benefit from me visiting you twice"
