Hello Brethren, in this episode we further look at the apostle Paul's advice to serve God in the state that we became a Christian or were called to offer our bodies (mind and soul) as a living sacrifice for the duties and leadings of God in Christ Jesus. We then see how decisiveness is key, and that it is better to marry and stay clear of a full-time consecrated ministry than to consecrate oneself and then seek to be married. The implications are clear in terms of focus, expectation, temptation and use of time in service and the effect and talk that such a servant would have amongst others. This episode ends by looking at how being called to full-time consecrated service does not necessarily mean that one is going to do 'mighty and big' things in public service and only God knows why and how he will use each willing person in the bigger picture. Can we see how marriage affects ministry and how the latter may strain the former if not discerned and agreed in God's will beforehand?
