And he gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:
that I may be delivered from them that are disobedient in Judæa, and that my ministration which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee; for he is useful to me for ministering.
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to do service for the sake of them that shall inherit salvation?
