seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution to them and to all;

δοκιμῆς dokimēs “proof”

seeing that you seek a proof of Christ who speaks in me; who toward you is not weak, but is powerful in you.

δοκιμὴν dokimēn “a proof”
