What’s My Ministry??

 Are Christians doing other forms of ministry, such as; deacons, elders, worship team, ushers, childcare, day care ministry, youth ministry, senior ministry, women’s ministry, men’s ministry, audio video and sound ministry, parking lot ministry, maintenance ministry, janitor and security exempt (excused) from being a witness for Jesus?

Are apostles, prophets, pastors and teachers exempt (excused) from being a witness for Jesus? 

2nd Corinthians 5:17-18.     Therefore, if anyone  is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation. 

To reconcile means to put something that was once one, that was torn apart  back together again.

Man was created to be with God. Man sinned and his relationship with God was torn apart, severed or split. But God had a plan, that sinful man could be reconnected to Him, that their relationship could be restored or put back together by Jesus Christ.Once a man’s relationship is restored,  the man is then given the ministry of helping other men connect to God by telling them what Jesus Christ has done for them.The ministry of reconciliation belongs to everyone that has been reconciled to God.At the moment a person is born again or saved the ministry of reconciliation, telling man how to connect to God through Jesus Christ belongs to that new believer.

So, the first calling the first responsibility of every Christian is to the ministry of reconciliation. (Being involved in other forms of ministry does not change or stop your first calling!)The first calling of an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor and teacher is also to the ministry of reconciliation!!This calling, this responsibility started the moment they were born again and this responsibility stays with them in their callings of apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor and teacher!!!   This first calling to the ministry of reconciliation never changes or ends!!Obedience to this first calling will enhance and help make their 5 fold ministry calling more fruitful!!
