*UNDERSTANDING THE ACTS AND WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST (104)*

_And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it and stay there until you depart. As you enter the house, greet it. And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it, but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you. And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet when you leave the house or town"_ (Matt 10:11-14). 

This section's main subject is how a minister should approach preaching the Gospel. But notice, when we distill His words down, Jesus is saying that, for a minister, preaching the Gospel is non-negotiable. In the vernacular, He says, "If you go into a town, and you find people fit to stay with, stay and preach the Gospel to them. If they accept it, great. Stay there and preach for as long as you need to. If they reject it, great. Pick up your beddings, dust off, and go to the next town. As a minister of God, you are not preaching just for the sake of numbers, or to receive praise from people, or to make money, or whatever. Preach the true Gospel. Period."

The minister's job is to preach the Gospel. If the people accept it - wonderful. If they do not accept it - well, they'll get their reward. The ministry does not have to waste it's time in places where the Gospel will not be accepted. God does not want His ministers to throw pearls before swine, as it were. He wants them to find those who accept the truth, who want to believe the truth, who are willing to support the truth, who want to help in getting the truth out. And if none are to be found in a particular place, they are to move on. Evidently, God hasn't called anyone there. But the truth remains the same. The message must be preached, and it must not be changed. 

A minister of God should not be driven by anything designed to make him look "good" because he should not be in it for his own glory. He is in the ministry because he desires to preach the Gospel and glorify God. That's what His Master told him to do, and he is a servant under authority. Focus on the truth, preach the Gospel. 

*EXCELLENCE KEY* 🗝️

_A minister of God should be in the ministry because he desires to preach the Gospel and glorify God. Not to seek for his own glory and selfish gains._
