But as we have been tried by God to be entrusted with the good news, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, trying our hearts:

Neither seeking glory of men, nor of you, nor of others, being able to be in weight, as the sent of Christ.

For this also we return thanks to God continually, that, having received the word of God from our report, ye received not the word of man, but as it is truly, the word of God, which is also energetic in you the believing.

They also having slain the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and having driven you out; and not pleasing God, and opposite to all men;

For surely therefore he despising, despises not man, but God, he also giving his holy Spirit for us.
