    Soul winning becomes a harvest and an offering to be offered to God. The threefold ministry is that the apostle preaches the Gospel, the Holy Spirit convicts and God accepts them as an offering. This is the service of Paul.

    You can admire Jesus, you can think well of Jesus, you can even love Jesus. But you cannot domesticate Him, you cannot tame Him, you cannot make Him sweet and nice and pretty.
