The Test of Ministerial Integrity

Paul gives a list of characteristics for ministerial integrity.  These can be summarized under two categories:

1. Willingness to endure opposition

2. The maintaining of godly virtues

If you are a servant of Christ, do these characteristics describe you?

Today’s reading:  2 Corinthians 6:3-10:18

My selection:

We put no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry, but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger…

2 Corinthians 6:3-5
