5. ನಿಮಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿರುವ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ನಾವು ಎಂದಿಗೂ ಯಾರ ಮುಖಸ್ತುತಿಯನ್ನೂ ಮಾಡಿಲ್ಲ ಮತ್ತು [‡ ಅ. ಕೃ. 20:33:] ದುರಾಶೆಯನ್ನು ಮರೆಮಾಡುವುಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ವೇಷವನ್ನು ಹಾಕಿಕೊಂಡಿಲ್ಲ. [§ 1 ಥೆಸ. 2:10; ರೋಮಾ. 1:9:] ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ದೇವರೇ ಸಾಕ್ಷಿ.

5. ನಿಮ್ಮ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯದನ್ನು ಹೇಳಿ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಮರುಳು ಮಾಡಬೇಕೆಂದು ನಾವೆಂದೂ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸಿಲ್ಲವೆಂಬುದು ನಿಮಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿದೆ. ನಾವು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಹಣವನ್ನು ಕಸಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸಿಲ್ಲ; ನಮ್ಮ ಸ್ವಾರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಮರೆಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ವೇಶಧಾರಿಗಳಾಗಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಇದು ನಿಜವೆಂಬುದು ದೇವರಿಗೆ ತಿಳಿದಿದೆ.
