Gal 1:10 ‘For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.’
Very simple, ‘No man can serve two masters…’ (Mt 6:24). One may defend their actions by stating man is not a master, only God. Why then do we try to please man’s interest or desire his approval, would that not be the due the Master only? Paul was spiritually blunt and straightforward with the Galatians and their dangerous efforts. If you’re right by God’s Word, then you’re right. One doesn’t need the approval or acceptance of man in the matter.
Seek to please God and man and you’ll please neither, serve God’s interest and you’ll be able to serve man’s need and that will be pleasing to both… HSAY
