Paul Disowns Self-interest Excerpt Whatever the background to this difficult verse, its general import seems clear. Paul disowns self-interest as a motive for any of his action; whether his actions be judged irrational or rational, all is for God’s glory and the benefit of others ( 1  Cor. 10:31 ;  2 Cor. 4:5 ,  15 ). Of this, the Corinthians can be justly proud (v.  12 ). This interpretation accords well with his following appeal (v.  14 ) to Christ as “the man for others” and his definition of the purpose of Christ’s death (v.  15 ) — that believers should lead a life that is not centered on self but on Christ.  More Harris, Murray J.  The Second Epistle to the Corinthians : A Commentary on the Greek Text .
