What the Bible says about Ministry, Sacrificial Aspects of
(From Forerunner Commentary)

John 19:30 Jesus gasped, "It is finished", and finally to the Father, who gave Him to us because He loved us so much, our Savior prayed, "Into your hands I commend My spirit" (Luke 23:46). So Jesus died with a quiet confidence that He had finished the work His Father had sent Him to do. Staff Why Did Jesus Have to Die by Crucifixion?

2 Timothy 3:13 Paul is saying: "Look Timothy, things are getting worse—not better! So if I have suffered as I have, and if you really want to be faithful and dedicated to this ministry, then you may face even worse things than I did." A true minister must be willing to make that sacrifice. Richard T.
