A OUR PRESIDENT SPEAKS . . I THE MAKING OF A MAN OF GOD This term, man of God, occurs often in the Bible. In particular, there are three men who, in the full Biblical sense, were men of God. The ministry of each one provides us with a clue to an indispensable element in the making of the man of God. The first is Paul. Paul wrote in 11 Timothy 3:16,17, all Scripture . . . is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be per- fect, throughly furnished unto all good works. The first element in the life of the man of God is the Word of God. It is through the Word of God, and by the Holy Spirit, that the man of God is instructed, cleansed, sanctified, guided, ern- powered and transformed. The true man of God will be a man of the Scriptures. The second is Elijah. The quality that marked the life of Elijah was prayer-fervent, constant, effectual prayer. The Bible says, Elijah was a man subj ect to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain. It was the praying of Elijah that James had in mind when he said, The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. The true man of God will also be a man of prayer. The third is Ezekiel. Ezekiel's ministry was marked by a deep sympathy for those to whom he ministered. Transported to Babylon, Ezekiel was stunned at the sight of the Jews in captivity: Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib . . . and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days. Ezekiel was deeply moved at the plight of his countrymen. This quality of sympathy is an indispensable quality in the character and ministry of the man of God. No servant of the Lord will be effective unless he is able to enter sympathetically into the trials and disappointments and hopes of his people. The true man of God will also be a man of sympathy. But it is important to observe also the tense of the participle. It is a continuous present, making, and in- dicated accurately that the making of the man of God is a process, a process effected by God alone and never completed until we reach Heaven. Our confidence, however, is this, that He that hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. fPhi1. 1 :6.j J I 4
