I really like Paul
Who are the real missionaries and the ministers of living God?
(This means, who is Paul nowadays?)
For though I was free from all, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.
1Co 9:20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;
1Co 9:21 to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Messiah), that I might win those who are without law.
1Co 9:22 To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some.
1Co 9:23 Now I do this for the sake of the Good News, that I may be a joint partaker of it.
1Co 9:24 Don't you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win.
1Co 9:25 Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
1Co 9:26 I therefore run like that, as not uncertainly. I fight like that, as not beating the air,
1Co 9:27 but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
When I read this bible verse, I have learned about real minister of God and about real missionaries, as it is mentioned above about Paul, he can do all things for the sake of Gospel. Even he was ready to change his personality. I really want to be like Paul and I wish to see those kinds of Missionaries, the missionaries that deny their culture, their personality, their living style, their dressing style, without complaining and grumbling with full of joy to gain some people for Jesus. Wow that is cool, God will reward those kinds’ Missionaries and ministers. God help us to leave for the others and to die for the others
