Subject: All Don't Have The Same Ministry In Lord |
Bible Note: "Note: Peter, can you show us please where in the scripture is says that varieties of ministries are, divisions? Can you be more specific in what you mean be these, divisions?" Dear Jhon: Thank you for your reply. The word "varieties" in the above verse is the Greek word: diairesis; meaning a division. I take this meaning from the Hebrew-Aramaic and Greek Dictionary provided with this forum. Are you familiar with it and how to use it? I mean by "divisions, that God divides the gifts, ministries and operations. Like dividing up a pie. One piece for this person another for that. All do not have the same piece. A different piece for each member of the body. As to why I refer to myself in the third person, God knows but I will take a look at it. Love in Christ Peter |
