Aim: To see all true ministry with the eyes and wisdom of Christ.
Exegesis: Let us look at other ministries positively, not negatively. We should be thankful for (v. 38a) and encouraging of (v. 28b) different works. Let us look at other ministries inclusively, not exclusively, by seeking to build bridges (v. 39) and alliances (v. 40). Let us look at other ministries graciously, not legalistically. We ought to spark (v. 41a) and strengthen (v. 41b) loving labor in people.
Key verse: v. 39 ''But Jesus said, 'Do not forbid him, for no one who works a miracle in My name can soon afterward speak evil of me.'''
