Thematic Bible: Without deceitfulness
Thematic Bible
Ministers » Should preach » Without deceitfulness
For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God; but sincere and from God. We speak in Christ in the sight of God.
You know very well that we did not come to you with flattering talk (praise for selfish gain). We did not use words to cover up greed (insatiable desire for wealth). God is our witness!
We have renounced the hidden things of shame. And we do not walk in craftiness and deceit. We do not adulterate the word of God. But by the manifestation of the truth we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
For our presentation (exhortation) is not based on error, or of uncleanness, or in deceit.
