2 Corinthians 10:1 to 18 There are many differences in the work carried out by pastors, even within the same ministry. Therefore, when we visit one of these cities, we respect the work carried out by the local pastor. However, it is true that we prefer miracles to harsh words. We are careful not to judge by appearance, for we are sure that we all belong to Christ. Something important to highlight is that we do not praise ourselves, as praise must come from Christ and never from ourselves. And even when we receive them, these compliments should bring us closer to Christ, and never take us away from him.
