# Connecting Statement:
Paul shifts the subject from giving to affirming his authority to teach as he does.
# by the humility and gentleness of Christ
The word "humility" and "gentleness" are abstract nouns, and can be expressed in another way. AT: "I am humble and gentle as I do so, because Christ has made me that way" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
# who assume that
"who think that"
# we are living according to the flesh
The word "flesh" is a metonym for sinful human nature. "we are acting from human motives" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
