“Second Corinthians speaks concerning the ministry, which is constituted with, and produced and formed by, the experiences of the riches of Christ through sufferings, consuming pressures, and the killing work of the cross. The ministry is not merely a matter of gift. A person may be able to speak fluently and eloquently and give many good illustrations and proverbs, but this is just a gift. What the church, the Body, needs today is the ministry.” SufferingChristChristianityBibleMinistryThe Cross2 Corinthians Book:An Autobiography of a Person in Spirit Source: An Autobiography of a Person in Spirit
“[2 Corinthians 1:21-22] says that God has anointed us, has sealed us, and has given us the pledge, the foretaste, of the Spirit. If we are going to minister something of Christ to others, we have to experience Christ by the working of the cross, and the working of the cross is for the anointing, the sealing, and the pledge of the Spirit.” ChristMinistrySpiritual ExperienceAnointingThe CrossThe Spirit2 CorinthiansGod S EconomyWitness LeeExperience Of Christ Book:An Autobiography of a Person in Spirit Source: An Autobiography of a Person in Spirit
