What About 2 Corinthians 5:8?

Without fail the first verse people will cite is 2 Corinthians 5:6-9 and I guarantee you they get it wrong.

6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
