Speaker:  Minoru Chen, The object of our seeking and our pursuit is none other than God Himself. There comes a time when our serving outwardly may still be there but the inward seeking and pursuit has already stopped or paused. As full-timers have a seeking heart and a pursuing spirit, not the same as years ago but much more than ever. With this there will be a revival, there will be a renewal in our lives, in our service, even in the church life. Source: Southern California

In addition to keeping a good conscience, serving ones must also learn to exercise their mingled spirit. There is a problem among the full-timers today that we do not exercise our spirit enough in our service. The first point of contact in our coming and going should be our spirit, but unfortunately it is often our soul. This is because our spirit is too weak. We need to exercise our spirit so that it becomes the prominent part of our being, dominating our soul and directing us in how to shepherd others. Paul speaks of the importance of serving in spirit in Romans 1:9, 7:6, and 12:11. God is constantly working and active, however, He must first stir us up in our spirit, where He is living, to cause us to work with Him. If our spirit is weak and puny we will not be able to move in tandem with the Spirit.

Speaker: Minoru Chen, The key to serving the Lord is maintaining a good conscience. Without a good conscience, our faith leaks out, and a conscience full of offense invites the enemy’s accusations. Therefore, we need Christ as the breastplate of righteousness to protect our conscience. 1 Timothy 1:5 speaks of  a pure heart, a good conscience, and unfeigned faith. A good conscience and unfeigned faith go together, and such faith purifies the heart. Hence, serving the Lord is a matter of our person being right. Moreover, 1 Timothy 3:9 reveals that we hold on to the mystery of the faith by having a pure conscience; such a person is able transmit life into others. On the contrary, 1 Timothy 4:2 talks about men who are branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron. This is a conscience which has lost feeling, and it is a very dangerous place to be in. As we are serving we have to deal with and maintain a good conscience so that we can be a person full of faith in the Lord. And it is by this that we can serve Him and minister to His people.

The challenges of maintaining purity while serving in ministry are explored through engaging analogies to soldiers and athletes.

Speaker: Minoru Chen, As His serving ones today, we must cooperate with the seasons to grow. Because life is brief and our time and strength is limited, we must grasp the opportunity to number our days and gain a heart of wisdom (Psalm 90:12). Furthermore, the real meaning of “full-time” goes beyond the mere name or outward schedule; rather, it is a person who lives Christ. They bear the three characteristics unveiled by Paul in Romans 12: presented, consecrated bodies (v. 1), renewed minds in the process of transformation (v. 2), and burning spirits (v. 11). Lastly, the four coordinates or pillars which we must always check ourselves to know where we are is life, truth, the church, and the gospel. Source: Southern California.
