<p>1:10 <em>For am I now seeking the favour of men or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ</em>- Although Paul made himself all things to all men, he didn&rsquo;t just seek to please men (Gal. 1:10; 1 Thess. 2:4). He sought their salvation and approached them in appropriate terms, but he didn&rsquo;t just seek to please them from a human viewpoint. He didn&rsquo;t cheapen the Gospel. The argument here suggests that serving<em> Christ</em> is being placed in opposition to serving<em> men.</em> Thus he sees one application of serving mammon as acting in a hypocritical way in order to please some in the ecclesia (Mt. 6:24 = Gal. 1:10).</p>
