What does the Bible say about the new covenant ministers?

According to 2 Corinthians 3:6, God has made us competent ministers of a new covenant. This means that being a minister is not a self-appointed role; it is a divine calling. Ministers must first be true servants of Jesus Christ, as seen in Philippians 1:1, where Paul identifies himself and Timothy as servants of Christ. Additionally, in Titus 3:3, Paul emphasizes that all men are slaves to sin until they are born again. True ministry springs from a transformation brought about by God's grace, highlighting the significant role of regeneration and the necessity of being a servant before serving in ministry.
