If a minister is ordained into X denomination and one day wishes to become the teaching elder of a church that belongs to Y denomination (assuming both are the same general type of church, i.e. presbyterian), would the minister be excommunicated from X for going to preach in Y? Would he have to be re-ordained by Y?
"The heart is the main thing in true religion...It is the hinge and turning-point in the condition of man's soul. If the heart is alive to God and quickened by the Spirit, the man is a living Christian. If the heart is dead and has not the Spirit, the man is dead before God." (J.C. Ryle)
"Man is nothing: he hath a free will to go to hell, but none to go to heaven, till God worketh in him to will and to do his good pleasure"
