Description
Summary:In this article several of the texts from the letters of St Paul used to support the words describing the ministry of a priest in the declarations for a priest in the Church of England ordinal are explored. The texts are examined in their original context and then compared to their apparent intent in supporting the nature of ministry being described in the ordinal. This comparison and contrast suggests some creative use of the texts in the ordinal. But the comparison also illumines how the rich language Paul used about ministry in his letters can inform our understanding of ministry today.
