“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.”
Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful — 'faithful' (pistos) is the sole criterion for stewards. Not charisma, eloquence, or social standing but fidelity to the deposit (the gospel). Paul has been faithful; the Corinthians should measure apostles by this standard, not by rhetorical appeal or faction-building power.
