Minister of God! "Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the Church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do His work and build up the Church, the Body of Christ." ( Ephesians 4:11-12). What work do you do to provide food, clothing, and shelter for yourself (and your family)? The Apostle Paul did work as a tentmaker (some translations say “leatherworker”); however, he tirelessly preached Christ’s message, evangelizing to everyone he could and teaching new Christians. Today, sometimes, people say they are employed “full time” or “part time” in this or that job or career; as Christians, we could consider that earthly work as how we make our living. But because we are “living stones that God is building into His spiritual temple. What’s more, you are His holy priests” ( 1 Peter 2:5). GD CEPHAS
