Philippians 5:11 ……… Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death — even death on a cross. Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Without a heart to serve others we cannot live a Christ-like lifestyle. To reach others with the reality of Jesus we must be prepared to serve them.
A minister of the gospel is not only someone who preaches from the pulpit; a true minister is simply one who serves others.
Jesus laid aside His deity and came to earth to show us the way to absolute victory in life and a prerequisite of that victorious life is to serve.
A major part of The Way Christian Ministries’ (TheWayCM) Training for Life course (TFL) is to develop a heart to serve within and among our trainees. To do this the lifestyle that we aim to live should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.
Our TFL course aims to develop the whole person. It is an holistic course. Why not consider coming along for a two weeks ‘sampler’ or a ten weeks semester; for details see: http://www.thewaycm.com/tfl.html .
You may even want to consider coming on a mission with us. There is a mission opportunity at the end of each ten weeks semester. We will be going to Andhra Pradesh in Southern India at the end of the first semester 2009, for the first two weeks in December.
At TheWayCM we believe in ‘doing the word’. Wherever your mission-field is; your own home, your neighbourhood or the other side of the world, if you have a Christ-like attitude to serving others, you will be to them the tangible gospel that they can see, hear, taste, smell and touch. Jesus plainly told us in Matthew chapter 25 verse 40 that if we do this for others, we do it for Him.
Lord Jesus, thank you for teaching us by example. Amen
