EMFI APOSTOLIC STRATEGIES
"Let a man so account of us as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. Colossians 3:23-24, And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as to the Lord and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance for ye serve the Lord Christ." 1 Corinthians 4:1-2
