Here we see the Apostle Paul an example of true leadership , expressing his genuine care for those in Thessalonians churches .
Verse 9 he labored so that no one could accuse him of personal gain , made his own way , not even appearing to be taking advantage of them , which was not the case in reality . This is very good fruit .
Never give money to anyone for their service to God , it makes them look bad . And if it's their motive they are bad . It's not wrong to help people but be careful on how it's done . Pure motive in the work of the gospel is not at all concerned about money or gain. God supplies .
It can even be a temptation sometimes to except gain for doing Gods work , discernment is needed .
