1. You should think of us as Christ's servants, who have been put in charge of God's secret truths.
2. The one thing required of such servants is that they be faithful to their master.
3. Now, I am not at all concerned about being judged by you or by any human standard; I don't even pass judgement on myself.
4. My conscience is clear, but that does not prove that I am really innocent. The Lord is the one who passes judgement on me.
