Emphasizing that God measures success much differently than humans, Brother Singh equated what the world calls a loser to be a winner in God's eyes. By worldly standards, Paul's ministry is a failure. In 2 Timothy 4:16, he lamented, "At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me." Fellow workers like Demas left him for worldly pursuits (2 Timothy 4:10). All the churches he founded quickly fell into apostasy, like the Corinthian assembly, abandoning the foundation of truth for another gospel that pleased them. Paul suffered the loss of all things, counting them but dung, that he might win Christ (Phil. 3:8).
