Don' discount any ministry of the Lord, We need all that the Holy Spirit gives us through the body of Christ Jesus our Lord.

Recently I heard a TV preacher complain that there just is to much grace teaching and not enough repentance teaching. I had to laugh!

Each ministry has its place in the body of Christ. Some have certain things that they major in.

Romans 12:3-4
I say through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly as God has dealt to each member a measure of faith.

For as we have many members in the body, but all members do not have the same function, so we being many are one body in Christ, and individually member of each other.

Beloved, we need them all,  We need those that teach on prayer, we need to communicate with our Lord and worship Him. Be thankful as you come to the throne of grace.
We need grace teachers, they remind us that Jesus paid it all. 
We need, faith teachers, they remind us it is through faith by grace we are saved, and that we can and should grow in faith.
We need Evangelist teachers, they help us see we need salvation through the blood of Jesus Christ, they call us to repentance, and to reach out to see others saved.

We need healing teachers, they remind us what we have in Christ, that Jesus paid for our healing at His scourging, by His stripes we are healed, we were healed over 2000 years ago.

Prophecy teachers, remind us of all that is being fulfill and the coming of the Lord. 

We need encouraging members, those that are positive and encouraging, help us to see the good that God is doing in our life, and to keep expecting the good God has for us.

We need spiritual growth teachers, that challenge us to stretch and grow, and on and on. 

We need to learn about the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We need them all. 

When we hear someone criticize another's teaching, just know that they see their calling as # 1.
but never discount another's ministry, because yours is different, it is suppose to be different according to God's word.

1 Corinthians 12:4-6
There are diversities of gifts, buy the same Spirit.
There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.  And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

Beloved, never place God in a religious box, He is the Lord of the universe, and He is not limited to our small thinking. 

Read Gods word and see the big picture. You will find hidden treasures as you seek the Lord in His word. The Holy Spirit will teach you.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

Absolutely! Just like there are many different kinds of shoes for different needs, there are different ministries for different people and situations.
