Teaching I Timothy 1:12-13: "And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry." God clearly called Paul into the ministry! And let's read what he used to do: "although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent (violently arrogant) man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief." Wow! God can truly forgive people, as HE also forgave Moses and David in the Old Testament! Have you been forgiven of your sins by God? God is waiting for sinners and all to ask Him for forgiveness! Remember the list Paul has written in I Timothy 1:13!
Thankfully to God, this minister was also called into the ministry! May God have His way with me as well as you reading this! God still forgives and calls people into the ministry, young and old! Jim Kultau, Southern Baptist Minister
