Paul Defends His Apostleship

5 I do not regard myself as in any way inferior to the most eminent Apostles! 6 Though I am no trained orator, yet I am not without knowledge; indeed we made this perfectly clear to you in every way. 7 Perhaps you say that I did wrong in humbling myself that you might be exalted--I mean because I told you God's Good News without payment.
