Part 9: The Final Charge

We all have a ministry. That’s not a concept reserved for people who work at or start churches. If you profess Jesus as Lord, and have been saved by His grace, then you have a ministry to fulfill. That is the Apostle Paul’s concern as he is preparing to meet Jesus and set sail home to heaven – completing the work. This requires a grueling fight of faith, a costly outpouring of your time and energy. Like Paul you will be poured out, and like Paul, you can be strengthened by grace and motivated by love.
