2 Cor. 2:14‑17• 14But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in the Christ, and makes manifest the odour of his knowledge through us in every place.
15For we are a sweet odour of Christ to God, in the saved and in those that perish:
16to the one an odour from death unto death, but to the others an odour from life unto life; and who is sufficient for these things?
17For we do not, as the many, make a trade of the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, before God, we speak in Christ.

Phil. 1:12‑18• 12But I would have you know, brethren, that the circumstances in which I am have turned out rather to the furtherance of the glad tidings,
13so that my bonds have become manifest as being in Christ in all the praetorium and to all others;
14and that the most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord through my bonds, dare more abundantly to speak the word of God fearlessly.
15Some indeed also for envy and strife, but some also for good will, preach the Christ.
16These indeed out of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the glad tidings;
17but those out of contention, announce the Christ, not purely, supposing to arouse tribulation for my bonds.
18What is it then? at any rate, in every way, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, yea, also I will rejoice;
(Phil. 1:12‑18)
