the statement of him who hears the words of God, and he knowing the knowledge of the Most High, who sees the vision of the Almighty, falling down, yet with open eyes:
For through the grace having been given to me, I say to every one being among you, not to think too highly beyond what is right to think. But think to be of sound mind, even as God divided a measure of faith to each one.
For we dare not rank or compare ourselves with some of those commending themselves, but they measuring themselves among themselves and comparing themselves to themselves, are not perceptive.
Do you look at things according to face? If anyone has persuaded himself to be of Christ, let him think this again as to himself, that as he is of Christ, so also we are of Christ.
For if, indeed, the one coming proclaims another Jesus, whom we have not proclaimed, or if you receive another spirit which you have not received, or another gospel which you never accepted, you might well endure these.
