A privilege To Serve Christ!
“And I thank Christ Jesus our
Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting
me into the ministry; who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor,
and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in
unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with
faith and love which is in Christ Jesus This is a faithful saying
and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus Came into the world
to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1: 12-15.
What a privilege and an honor it
is for any one of us who by nature are sinners and blasphemers of
God, to be chosen and called of God, and placed in a ministry for his
honor and glory. To preach or teach the word of almighty God is the
highest calling in the universe, and to assist others to preach or
teach the word of God is equally a high calling of God. Not that we
should be puffed up and proud; but that we should humbly thank God
that we can work together for him as his servants, for his glory We
can all say with Paul as in verse 15 of 1 Timothy1this is a faithful
saying and worthy of all acceptation that Christ Jesus Came into the
world to save sinners of whom I am chief.”
