Luke 6:26

MSG

NIV

26 "There's trouble ahead when you live only for the approval of others, saying what flatters them, doing what indulges them. Popularity contests are not truth contests - look how many scoundrel preachers were approved by your ancestors! Your task is to be true, not popular.
26 Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you, for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.
