Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:
All Commentaries on Romans 15:20 Go To Romans 15
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Paul was preeminent in this also, in that he did not go to places where the gospel had already been preached. So far was he from forcing himself upon other men’s disciples that he even went to places where nobody had preached before…. He wrote all this to show that he was a stranger to vanity and to instruct them that it was not from any love of glory or of honor from them that he came to write but in order to fulfill his ministry, perfect his priestly service and love their salvation.
