2 Corinthians 10:18
“For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.”
To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man’s line of things made ready to our hand.
But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.
