Bible Question:
My question is awkward. Perhaps this will help: Do these offices serve a purpose that is a direct result of our desire to love one another, or do these offices serve some other purpose that cannot be quantified with the passage in Romans? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Sultis! I would say that love should be the compeling force in every ministry. However, Eph. 4 makes it clear that the purpose of these ministries is to bring the body of Christ to maturity. Individuals need training and instruction to grow in Christ.
