Chapter 4 - How I Discovered The Ministry Of A Shepherd Flashcards
Who is a lay shepherd
Who is a full time minister
Someone who maintains his secular job and her is active in the ministry of the Lord Jesus
Someone who has abandoned his secular job to concentrate fully on the ministry
What is the main duty of a minister
To fulfil the great commission
Matthew 28:19-20 KJV
[19] Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: [20] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
What is Acts 6:1-4 about
Acts 6:1-4 KJV
[1] And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. [2] Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables. [3] Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. [4] But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
It is about Peter demonstrating that the main duty of a minister is to pray and minister the Word!!
Shepherds likewise should be taught to visit, counsel, how to preach, to witness, to minister the word of Hod with power!
