2 Corinthians
"Ministering to the saints..."
Text: 2 Corinthians 9:1
PLANTING OF CHURCHES
Paul did more than evangelistic work. He certainly preached the Gospel. But he also planted churches. We have a glimpse of the church-planting ministry in the following text.
“Now concerning the ministering to the saints,
it is superfluous for me to write to you;
for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you
to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago;
and your zeal has stirred up the majority.”
2 Corinthians 9:1-2
1. Church- Planting Strategy
a) Regional ministry
i) Paul ministered to a Region.
ii) In each Region he planted a few churches.
b) Macedonian Region
These were specifically mentioned in the Book of Acts (Acts 16-17).
