'Ministry' in the Bible

Now if the ministry of death that was inscribed in letters of stone came with such glory that the people of Israel could not gaze on Moses' face (because the glory was fading away from it),

will not the Spirit's ministry have even more glory?

For if the ministry of condemnation has glory, then the ministry of justification has an overwhelming glory.

Therefore, since we have this ministry through the mercy shown to us, we do not get discouraged.

All of this comes from God, who has reconciled us to himself through the Messiah and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,

We do not put an obstacle in anyone's way. Otherwise, fault may be found with our ministry.

They begged us earnestly for the privilege of participating in this ministry to the saints.

I do not need to write to you any further about the ministry to the saints.

since this ministry you render is not only fully supplying the needs of the saints, it is also overflowing with more and more prayers of thanksgiving to God.
