520 |a This article highlights 1 Cor 1:25-29 and the criteria that God uses to qualify a call to serve. The passage wonderfully reveals the desire of God to use our weakness as the criterion for a call to ministry. Paul’s specific language affirms God’s inclination to use the humble, the weak, the oppressed, the broken, the things that are not, and the disqualified, to realize His redemptive plan to transform lives and communities. Many North American Evangelicals live amidst historically unprecedented levels of affluence and enjoy a level of comfort and ease. Affluence demands “more” and the church often heeds to it. Antithetical to the Corinthian passage is the “prosperity gospel” promoted in many Evangelical churches today. Prosperity gospel claims prosperity and financial success as the direct result of one’s faith. Principles of the prosperity gospel are trivial pursuits of consumerism, acquisition of things, the perennial effort to attain success, in order to qualify in ministry. Still those principles are not the criteria God would use to qualify a call. He uses the foolish, the weak, the disqualified; He uses the things that are not.
