    "We Minister And Belong To One Another”

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 17, 2021
     | 4,121 views

    The Church is the family of God. Each member ministers to one another and belongs to one another. But, if members overestimate themselves, they would damage the church and church ministry rather than edify. God called us as church to practice the love of God among ourselves and to the world.

    “We minister and belong to one another” (Romans 12:1-10) I appeal to you therefore, brothers,[a] by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.[b] 2 Do not be conformed to this world,[c] but be transformed by the ...read more
