"Duty Assignment!"
The Apostle Paul along with other 1st century believers who obediently proclaimed the Good News of Jesus as Christ to the Gentile nations, did so because they recognized their duty as appointed to them by God's Holy Spirit.
As it remains each individual's responsibility to respond personally to God's call, by choosing to accept the duty of proclaiming the Gospel of Christ, at the top of every believers list must be submission of will to the leadership and guidance of HIS Spirit.
Many levels of service are appointed to believers in God's Kingdom, but it is the core and root of my faith to be a witness of Christ that brings about the other aspects of a servant's duties, but not the other way around.
God's desire for fellowship with HIS children who have separated themselves from the world, does so through Holy Spirit, who is and forever will be a building block for strength, courage and power.
Christ is the foundation, The Cornerstone, and The Rock upon whom God set into place as the Head of HIS church, and I must forever remember the sacrifice HE made to bring the Gospel of God from heaven to earth.
My duty then must always be aligned and in submission to the complete and sanctified counsel of Holy Spirit, which is pleasing to God rather than to man.
