13. I am in prison because I am a believer in Christ. All the palace guards and everyone else knows this.
14. I am still in prison, but most of the believers feel better about it now. And so they are much braver about telling the Good News about Christ.
15. It is true that some preach about Christ because they are jealous and bitter. But others preach about Christ because they want to help.
16. They preach because they have love, and they know that God gave me the work of defending the Good News.
17. But others preach about Christ because they are selfish. Their reason for preaching is wrong. They want to make trouble for me in prison.
18. But I do not care if they make trouble for me. The important thing is that they are preaching about Christ. They should do it for the right reasons. But I am happy even if they do it for wrong reasons. And I will continue to be happy.
