The passages immediately prior to Chapters 2:14-7:2 in 2 Corinthians are concerned with tears, church problems, Paul's anguish for the believers he led to the LORD. The New Covenant Ministry Passages, in contrast, are sweet, powerful, filled with grace and promises. We are being led in the triumph of Christ, and we shed abroad the fragrance of Christ whatever we are doing.For some it is life to life sweet perfume, for other, it is the very reek of death as they reject Christ.
