Philosophy of Ministry
“34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. 35 Say not ye, There are
yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they
are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he
that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another
reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their
labours.” (John 4:34-38 AV)
“18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the
end of the world. Amen.” (Matthew 28:18-20 AV)
“23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the
Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in
truth.” (John 4:23-24 AV)
“15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through
faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all
good works.” (2Timothy 3:15-17 AV)
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” (Romans 8:14 AV)
