The Work of the Ministry

The call to this work must also be extraordinary, immediate, and direct from the Holy Ghost. All spiritual duties depend alike upon divine appointment and divine assistance. Entire consecration to God is the spirit and principle of all piety,. An entire devotion to Him, and to His service is a full and perfect manifestation of piety. The word of God is in all cases a guide to duty, the standard of duty, and the warmth of duty.
