Ministry
Strategies
| "Though I am free and
belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as
possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew. To those under
the law, I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under
the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having
the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from
God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those under the law.
To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all
things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.
I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its
blessings." I Corinthians 9:19-23 (NIV) |
