I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness—

of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,

God has given me the responsibility of serving his church by proclaiming his entire message to you.

I have become its servant, according to God’s commission that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,

I was made a minister of this church according to the commission from God granted to me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God,

of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,

whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to you- ward, to fulfil the word of God,

I have become its servant, according to God’s administration that was given to me for you, to make God’s message fully known,

Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

I became a servant of the church according to the stewardship from God– given to me for you– in order to complete the word of God,

of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,

I am sure you have heard that God appointed me to share his grace with you.

But you must keep your faith steady and firm. You must not move away from the hope the good news holds out to you. This is the good news that you heard. It has been preached to every creature under heaven. I, Paul, now serve the good news.

In fact, it was just the opposite. They recognized the task I had been trusted with. It was the task of preaching the good news to the Gentiles. My task was like Peter’s task. He had been trusted with the task of preaching to the Jews.God was working in Peter as an apostle to the Jews. God was also working in me as an apostle to the Gentiles.

Point out these things to the brothers and sisters. Then you will serve Christ Jesus well. You will show that you’ve grown in the truths of the faith. You will show that you’ve been trained by the good teaching you’ve obeyed.

Preach the word. Be ready to serve God in good times and bad. Correct people’s mistakes. Warn them. Encourage them with words of hope. Be very patient as you do these things. Teach them carefully.The time will come when people won’t put up with true teaching. Instead, they will try to satisfy their own desires. They will gather a large number of teachers around them. The teachers will say what the people want to hear.The people will turn their ears away from the truth. They will turn to stories that aren’t true.But I want you to keep your head no matter what happens. Don’t give up when times are hard. Work to spread the good news. Do everything God has given you to do.

We sent our brother Timothy to give you strength and hope in your faith. He works together with us in God’s service to spread the good news about Christ.

But I have written to you very boldly about some things. I wanted to remind you of them again. The grace of God has allowed meto serve Christ Jesus among the Gentiles. I have the duty of a priest to preach God’s good news. Then the Gentiles will become an offering that pleases God. The Holy Spirit will make the offering holy.Because I belong to Christ Jesus, I can take pride in my work for God.I will speak about what Christ has done through me. I won’t try to speak about anything else. He has been leading the Gentiles to obey God. He has been doing this by what I have said and done.He has given me power to do signs and wonders. I can do these things by the power of the Spirit of God. From Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum I have finished preaching. In those places, I preached the good news about Christ.

If I preach because I want to, I get a reward. If I preach because I have to, I’m only doing my duty.
