I receive not honor from men.
He that speaks of himself seeks his own glory: but he that seeks his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeks and judges.
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that you might be saved.
Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honors me; of whom you say, that he is your God:
When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
How can you believe, who receive honor one of another, and seek not the honor that comes from God only?
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
For even to this were you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps:
And you will not come to me, that you might have life.
But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.
For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
