And we have even sent with him a brother whose praise accompanies the Gospel throughout all the churches.
And not only that, but he was also chosen by the churches to be a companion for our sojourn in this grace, which is ministered by us with our determined will, to the glory of the Lord.
So let us avoid this, lest anyone disparage us over the abundance that is ministered by us.
For we provide for what is good, not only in the sight of God, but also in the sight of men.
And we have also sent with them our brother, whom we have proven to be frequently solicitous in many matters. But now there is a greater solicitousness, which is greatly entrusted to you;
and whether it concerns Titus, who is a companion to me and a helper to you, or whether it concerns our brothers, the Apostles of the churches, it is to the glory of Christ.
Therefore, in the sight of the churches, show them the proof of your charity and of our glorying about you.
