Motives and Methods of Gospel Ministry

Motives and Methods of Gospel Ministry

1 Thessalonians 2:1-12
The credibility of Christians in Australia is being seriously challenged today, and this is causing churches and gospel-centred ministries to defend themselves. In our passage today Paul defends himself against attacks which were being made against him and his team. In particular he reassures the believers at Thessalonica that his motives are pure, and his methods are driven by a genuine love for them. There is absolutely no room for hypocrisy in genuine gospel ministry. I wonder what impression others have of our attempts to share the gospel?
