(2Co 6:3) “Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: (4 ) But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,” “Approving”: to introduce; to exhibit. A right reaction to others no matter the offense or trial, brings glory to the Lord. We react wrongly when our mind and heart is upon self, not the things of God.
