  • If God calls a brother to preach the gospel, how would he approach commendation?
    If God calls a brother to preach the gospel, how would he approach commendation?

    Early in his Christian life, Saul knew he was called by God to preach the gospel. It appears that he knew what the Lord communicated to Ananias (Acts 9:15;" TARGET="_blank">Acts 9:15; Gal 1:16)." TARGET="_blank">Gal 1:16). He returned to Jerusalem after three years (Gal 1:18)" TARGET="_blank">Gal 1:18) and, while praying, received confirmation that God was sending him to preach to the Gentiles (Acts 22:17-21)." TARGET="_blank">Acts 22:17-21). He continued to be active in this work, exemplifying, "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might" (Eccl 9:10)." TARGET="_blank">Eccl 9:10). He was able both to work with his own initiative (in Tarsus, Acts 11:25)" TARGET="_blank">Acts 11:25) and also to work under the guidance of others (v 26).

    His responsibility was to do the work the Lord had laid on his heart. He awaited God’s timing on his commendation. The initiative in his commendation, under the Spirit’s guidance, came from the leaders of the Antioch assembly (Acts 13:1-3)." TARGET="_blank">Acts 13:1-3).

    Gideon knew these principles (Judges 6:36-40)." TARGET="_blank">Judges 6:36-40). His two requests regarding his fleece provided personal assurance that God had called him and a confirmation of that in the unity of others in following him.

    A man does the work the Lord gives him, looks to his God for personal assurance of his call, and waits on the Lord to make that evident through the insights of responsible believers. If a brother (or his family) has to promote his own cause in order to be commended by the assembly, he is either moving ahead of God or against God.
