Paul’s Mission to the Gentiles 14As for me, brothers and sisters, I am confident that you have goodwill, knowledge, and the ability to advise each other.

However, I have written boldly at some points in this letter to remind you of what you already know. I do this in accordance with the grace that God has given me

when I was sent to the pagan nations. I dedicated myself to serving the Good News of God as a minister of Christ Jesus, aiming to present the non-Jews to God as an acceptable offering, consecrated by the Holy Spirit.

This service of God is a source of pride for me, in Christ Jesus.

Of course, I would not dare to speak of other things, but what Christ himself has done through me—my words and my works,

with miracles and signs—by the power of the Holy Spirit—so that non-Jews may obey the faith. In this way, I have extended the Good News to all parts, from Jerusalem to Illyricum.

I have been very careful, and I am proud of this, not to preach in places where Christ is already known, nor to build upon foundations laid by others.

Let it be as scripture says: Those who have not been told about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.
