Apostle Paul really didn’t care what he thought of himself
Via Couldn’t Help Noticing, this is an interesting insight into 1 Corinthians 4 and what that tells us about Paul.
A quote:
By contrast, the apostle Paul’s self-esteem was so high that he didn’t care what anyone thought of him. … he didn’t even care what he thought of him. As long as God had judged him to be faithful in telling others about the crucified Lord Jesus, he was happy, which is why he said, “I do not even judge myself. I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.” (1 Cor 4:3-4)
As one of those who occasionally suffer from low self-esteem, this is most interesting.
