Paul's remarkable journey from persecuting Christians to becoming one of Christianity's most influential leaders demonstrates the transformative power of God. Though entitled to financial support as an apostle, Paul chose to support himself through tentmaking while ministering to the Corinthian church. This decision reflected his unwavering commitment to eliminate any potential obstacles that might prevent people from embracing the Gospel message.Three primary factors shaped Paul's ministry approach: a divine compulsion to preach, the weight of his past as a former persecutor of the church, and an earnest desire to serve others sacrificially. He viewed his calling not as a personal choice but as a divine mandate, often expressing that preaching the Gospel was a necessity laid upon him by God. His ministry exemplified how true fulfillment comes not from exercising our rights but from surrendering them for the benefit of others and the advancement of God's kingdom.
