Apostles of Christ

1 So then, men ought to regard us as servants¹ of Christ and as those entrusted² with the secret things³ of God. 2 Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. 3 I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. 4 My conscience⁴ is clear, but that does not make me innocent.⁵ It is the Lord who judges me.⁶ 5 Therefore judge nothing⁷ before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes.⁸ He will bring to light⁹ what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men's hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.¹⁰
