  • Ministration-Modern Question
    THE AGES DIGITAL LIBRARY REFERENCE CYCLOPEDIA of BIBLICAL, THEOLOGICAL and ECCLESIASTICAL LITERATURE Ministration - Modern Question by James Strong & John McClintock To the Students of the Words, Works and Ways of God: Welcome to the AGES Digital Library. We trust your experience with this and other volumes in the Library fulfills our motto and vision which is our commitment to you: MAKING THE WORDS OF THE WISE AVAILABLE TO ALL — INEXPENSIVELY. AGES Software Rio, WI USA Version 1.0 © 2000 2 Ministration (diakoni>a, leitourgi>a, both usually rendered “ministry”), the period during which an office is administered (<420123>Luke 1:23). The law of Moses is called the “ministration of death” and “condemnation.” It convinces men of .sin, the penalty for which is eternal death; and to this they are already condemned. The Gospel is the “ministration of the Spirit” that “giveth life;” it proceeds from the Holy Ghost; is confirmed and applied by him; and by means of it he conveys life, and all spiritual graces and benefits, to the souls of men (<470307>2 Corinthians 3:7, 8). The term is also used for the distribution of alms (<440601>Acts 6:1; <470913>2 Corinthians 9:13). Ministry (hd;wob[}, work; trev;, attendance,; leitourgi>a, waiting upon; diakoni>a, service). Besides the ordinary applications of this term to the common affairs of life, it is specially used in the Scriptures, chiefly those of the New Testament, to denote a devotion to the interests of God’s cause, and, in a technical sense, the work of advancing the Redeemer’s kingdom.

  • Missionary Helper
    THE Missionary He l p e r , PUBLISHED BIMONTHLY, BY THE 1|m Jiapfol Hfflnmn's jlcttidij* “ Freely ye have received, freely give.”— M att. 10: 8. Vol. I. * N O V E M B E R , 1878. No. 6. T h e publication of the H e lp e r , undertaken nearly one year ago with much fear and trembling, and yet with an abiding convic­ tion of its need, has been signally prosperous. The expectation of those who had even the greater measure of faith has been more than met. That there was a demand for something of the kind, though not widely expressed, has been proved by the readiness with which the magazine has been received, and the assurances that have come to us of the real help it is in giving information, in urging to duty, and in prompting to action. There was not adequate means for the women of the different sections to become acquainted; no way for interchange of thought, save by personal correspondence; and our dear workers abroad could not say to us all they would gladly say. The H e l p e r is a me­ dium of communication. One of the Western sisters says, and her words are the expressed feeling of others, we feel sure, “ The H e l p e r is bearing fruit in this : we are getting better acquainted every day. In truth, we have been too far apart. Now we understand that we are invited to join in this work of the Mas­ ter, and the response is most cheering.” The subscriptions have been coming in all the year, till the list reaches two thousand three hundred and seventy-seven.
