As a Christian our duty is to love people. We are to serve them. There’s a huge difference between loving people and pleasing them. If God is your Lord, you know the difference. As Jesus told us, “fear God or fear man”, whichever you choose determines which agenda you live out. If you love people, you love them enough to do the hard things. Pleasing people and loving them are not the same thing. Once you understand this, your witness will be more effective.
10 Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant.
