	'''<span id="3000">3000.</span>''' Ministry in the Christian context means service. It is a term which has been lifted out of the commonplace through the modeling of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is identified in both the Old and New Testaments as the ~~Servant~~ or ~~Minister~~ of God and man. His service involved His humiliation in the incarnation, His self-forgetful teaching and healing activity, and His shameful suffering and death on the cross for the redemption of the human race. Our Lord also chose this term to characterize the activity of His followers in obedience to His commands and mission. He called all members of His body to a general or corporate ministry which would glorify Him, edify the church, and evangelize the world. And He made such possible through imparting to each believer one or more gifts of the Spirit ([[1 Corinthians 12:7-27\|1 Cor. 12:7–27]]) in order that each member might participate in the work of the ministry and contribute to the growth and development of the whole body ([[Ephesians 4:11-16\|Eph. 4:11–16]]).
