" The message is clear that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works (2 Timothy 3:17) and perfect and entire, not lacking in anything (James 1:4). And above all, we consent to give up all inheritance on earth and to forsake all, and like Christ, to have only God as our portion – to possess as not possessing and hold all for God alone. For if we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord; whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s (Romans 14:8). These were marks of the true priest in the Old Testament, but they also describe the man who lives only for God and his fellow men today. "
