2nd Corinthians 4:5: "For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake."

Context: This Scripture was from Apostle Paul and Timothy, unto the Church at Corinth (2nd Cor. 1:1-2).

2nd Corinthians 4:5

Easy-to-Read Version (ERV): 

"We don’t tell people about ourselves. But we tell people that Jesus Christ is Lord, and we tell them that we are your servants for Jesus."

The Apostle Paul & Timothy weren't trying to make a name for themselves with the Gospel they preached. They were making JESUS' name great! Same goes for me: later for Kurtis Overton and his agenda; I preach CHRIST JESUS to further HIS Gospel!
