Even in chains, Paul was still sharing the Good News. He had an amazingly selfless attitude. He knew that there were those who were trying to build their own reputation by preaching the Gospel, taking advantage of his imprisonment. Regardless of this, Paul remained joyful that the Gospel was being propagated. “The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice” (v.18, NIV). We do not have to be offended when the Gospel seems to be misused. God will work it out for the good.
