2 Corinthians 8:23. Or our brethren be inquired of, they are the messengers of the churches and the glory of Christ.
This is the reply to any inquiry about the other brethren, they were probably poor men, humble men, plain preachers of the Word, yet Paul calls them "the glory of Christ." What a wonderful thing it is that any man should be the glory of Christ! An honest, upright character a holy gracious conversation does bring glory to Christ. Men say, "If that man is a follower of Christ, he does credit to his Master." Dear brothers and sisters, let us think of this; and if we are not the messengers of the churches, we may be "the glory of Christ."
