Ephesians3:7
7 Whereof I was made a Minister according to the gift of the grace of God , given unto me by the effectual working of his power .
Either according to the free Gift of God, and which was given merely of Grace; or by gift he understands all those several gifts (as of knowledge, utterance, &c.) which were the necessary qualifications and furniture of an Apostle for the due discharge of his Office, all which were freely given to him.
Whereby God made him a Preacher of the Gospel, who had been a persecutor of Believers, and wrought effectually by the Spirit with his Preaching for the Conversion of thousands, and spreading the Gospel in many Countries, and likewise wrought Miracles for the confirmation of the Truth, and conviction of Hearers, Act. 19.12. and 28.8.
