“Profession” – Salaried? Stipendiary?. . .Then What? – The Bible (KJV)

Surprisingly, in the entire Bible (KJV), Paul the Apostle mentioned it only in four verses in his two epistles to Timothy and Hebrews.

Neither give heed
to fables and endless genealogies,
which minister questions,
rather than godly edifying
which is in faith: – 1 Timothy 1:4

I am no preacher, but, am a prime sinner and living in this world in HIS mercy. For a sinner like me too, when I read “The Holy Bible” KJV,  the following verses were given in the context of “Profession” .

1 Timothy 6:12   Fight the good fight of faith,
lay hold on eternal life,
whereunto thou art also called,
and hast professed a good profession
before many witnesses.

Hebrews 3:1   Wherefore, holy brethren,
partakers of the heavenly calling,
consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

3:2  Who was faithful to him that appointed him,
as also Moses [was faithful] in all his house.
3:3  For this [man] was counted worthy of more glory than Moses,
inasmuch as he who hath builded the house
hath more honour than the house.
3:4  For every house is builded by some [man;]
but he that built all things [is] God.

Hebrews 4:14   Seeing then that we have a great high priest,
that is passed into the heavens,
Jesus the Son of God,
let us hold fast our profession.

Hebrews 10:23   Let us hold fast the profession of our faith
without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)
