Are The Ministry Gifts And Calling Of God Without Repentance?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 13, 2019

There is a belief in the church today that a person called to minister can still be effectual in reaching others for the sake of the Gospel because “the gifts and calling of God are without repentance” (Rom 11:29 KJV).

It is true that God can use anything to promote His kingdom. He even used a donkey to get ...read more

Personal... But Not Private
