That I should be the minister of Yahshua the Messiah to the Gentiles, ministering the good news of Elohim, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Master Yahshua, to testify the good news of the grace of Elohim.
And now, brethren, I commend you to Elohim, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
But the Master said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of Yahweh; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the good news of the Messiah.
Are they ministers of the Messiah? I speak as a fool I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths many times.
But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to Elohim.
But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our Elohim to speak unto you the good news of Elohim with much contention.
For ye remember, brethren, our labor and travail: for laboring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the good news of Elohim.
And the very Elohim of peace purify you completely; and your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Master Yahshua the Messiah.
Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the good news unto you with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to Yahweh by Yahshua the Messiah.
