Every Christian is called into ministry. The moment we believe in Christ for salvation, we are enlisted into God’s service, assigned a spiritual gift, expected to learn and live God’s Word, and given a mission. The question is not whether we will serve, but whether we will execute our assigned roles effectively. Paul makes it clear that the Christian life is not passive—it is an active engagement in spiritual warfare. Each of us, whether as pastors, teachers, evangelists, or faithful servants in the local church, has a function within the body of Christ. To neglect that function is dereliction of duty. As Christian soldiers, we must train, prepare, and engage in the spiritual battle, recognizing that our objective is to glorify God through the effective use of our spiritual gifts.
