"Also, tell Ar-chip'pus: 'Keep watching the ministry which you accepted in the Lord, that you fulfill it'" - Colossians 4:17"
The apostle Paul took his ministry very seriously, and he encouraged fellow belivers to do the same. One individual whom Paul singled out for special encouragement was a first-century Christian named Archippus. In his letter to the Colossians, Paul wrote the words quoted above. We do not know who Archippus was or what his circumstances were, but he had evidently accepted a ministry. If you are a dedicated Christian, you too have accepted a ministry. Are you continuing to watch the ministry in order to fulfill it?
