(1Co 9:22) “To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.” The Lord gave Paul a heart to humble himself before men for their soul’s sake. The only reason the Holy Spirit led Paul to pen words that hold up his position as an Apostle was to remind the saved they needed to heed his words. The Lord never feeds our pride, for pride is sin.
