TSK · John 5:41

How can you believe, if you accept praise from one another and don’t seek the praise that comes from the only God?

The person who speaks on his own authority desires to receive honor for himself; the one who desires the honor of the one who sent him is a man of integrity, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Jesus replied,“If I glorify myself, my glory is worthless. The one who glorifies me is my Father, about whom you people say,‘He is our God.’

For to this you were called, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving an example for you to follow in his steps.
