Bag om A Good Minister of Jesus Christ
What does a true minister of Christ look like, and what constitutes his ministry? How can we identify the life and labours of one called by God to serve in the church?
A Good Minister of Jesus Christ, by Theodore Andoseh, seeks to provide answers to the above questions through a close examination of the life (worker) and ministry (work) of Timothy-a protégé of Apostle Paul.
From his own steadfast, dynamic, and utterly devoted life and ministry as a messenger of the gospel, amid suffering and hardship, Apostle Paul admonished Timothy unto faithfulness in ministry, personal cultivation, commitment to the goal, submission to spiritual authority, and self-watch as an antidote to apostasy and moral bankruptcy.
The author shows that Timothy's unrelenting faithfulness in the worst kinds of trials-leader of a church infiltrated by false teachers; church members looking down on him because of his youth; frequent stomach ailments; and so on-is a remarkable example to every contemporary worker in the vineyard of God.
At the end, the fruit of his labours-the growth, overflow, and partnership of the churches in Macedonia-defines the faithful minister (worker) he became.
As you read on, may the Lord stir in you the urge to be a good tree that will bear good and lasting fruit for His glory.
