Paul speaks to pastors and to us all because his theme is the revelation of God’s love. The God we know has purchased the church with the blood of his Son. Paul exemplifies this love in his own life and work and won't let enemies misinterpret how he has lived. He tells pastors, and us all, to live in this same way. What is it like to not count our lives dear to ourselves? The answer is not in measuring how much we are ready to sacrifice but in knowing how precious is ‘the word of his grace’ or God’s eternal ‘counsel’. It is in knowing how deep the love of God is that we know how to show this love to others, especially to enemies. It is they who especially need to know.
