Vocational vehicle means a heavy-duty vehicle for which the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption have been determined, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 and its implementing measures, only for mission profiles other than those defined in point 2.1 of Annex I to this Regulation.Question: ’What is vocational ministry?’ Answer: Vocational ministry is traditionally understood as a career in which someone is paid for working full-time in a Christian organizational setting. Pastors, missionaries, and full-time evangelists are examples of people involved in vocational ministry.
The Latin word from which we get vocation is vocātiō, which means “calling.” In Christian vernacular, vocation refers to God’s call on someone’s life to something he is particularly gifted in or drawn to. One’s vocation may differ from one’s occupation, or job, although the two terms are often interchangeable today. The apostle Paul’s spiritual vocation was that of missionary to the Gentiles (see Colossians 1:1), but his occupation—what he did to provide for himself and his ministry financially—was that of tentmaker (see Acts 18:2–4).
The word ministry means “service.” In a Christian context, ministry involves serving God and others the way Jesus did, as He is our example (see Matthew 20:28 and John 13:13–15). While pastors make their living doing “ministry,” God calls us all to minister in some capacity. Colossians 3:23–24 instructs, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Whether it’s a vocation or an occupation, we can work at it with an attitude of serving God.
Vocational ministry is doing what God’s called one to do for the service of Him and others. For some, their vocation also becomes their occupation, as they get paid to do it (see 1 Timothy 5:17–18 and 1 Corinthians 9:7–11). For others, vocational ministry might be something they do in addition to another job that provides their income.
A vocation (from Latinvocātiō ’a call, summons’[1]) is an occupation to which a person is especially drawn or for which they are suited, trained, or qualified. Though now often used in non-religious contexts, the meanings of the term originated in Christianity.Senses[edit]
Use of the word ’vocation’ before the sixteenth century referred firstly to the ’call’ by God[2] to an individual, or calling of all humankind to salvation, particularly in the Vulgate, and more specifically to the ’vocation’ to the priesthood, or to the religious life, which is still the usual sense in Roman Catholicism. Roman Catholicism recognizes marriage, religious, and ordained life as the three vocations.[3][failed verification]Martin Luther,[4] followed by John Calvin, placed a particular emphasis on vocations, or divine callings, as potentially including most secular occupations, though this idea was by no means new.[5]
Calvinism developed complex ideas about different types of vocations of the first type, connected with the concepts of Predestination, Irresistible grace, and the elect. There are the vocatio universalis, the vocatio specialis, only extended to some. There were also complex distinctions between internal and external, and the ’vocatio efficax’ and ’inefficax’ types of callings.[6]Hyper-Calvinism, unusually, rejects the idea of a ’universal call’, a vocation, to repent and believe, held by virtually all other Christian groups.
In Protestantism the call from God to devote one’s life to him by joining the clergy is often covered by the English equivalent term ’call’, whereas in Roman Catholicism ’vocation’ is still used.
Both senses of the word ’call’ are used in 1 Corinthians 7:20, where Paul says ’Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called’ (KJV).Concept[edit]
The idea of vocation is central to the Christian belief that God has created each person with gifts and talents oriented toward specific purposes and a way of life. In the broadest sense, as stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, ’Love is the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being’ (CCC 2392). More specifically, in the Orthodox and Catholic Churches, this idea of vocation is especially associated with a divine call to service to the Church and humanity through particular vocational life commitments such as marriage to a particular person, consecration as a religious, ordination to priestly ministry in the Church and even a holy life as a single person. In the broader sense, Christian vocation includes the use of one’s gifts in their profession, family life, church and civic commitments for the sake of the greater common good.Christian views on work[edit]
Many Christian theologians appeal to the Old Testment Book of Genesis in regards to work. According to Genesis 1, human beings were created in the image of God, and according to Genesis 2, Adam was placed in the Garden of Eden to ’work it and keep it’ (2:15, ESV). Dorothy L. Sayers has argued that ’work is the natural exercise and function of man – the creature who is made in the image of his Creator.’[7] Likewise, John Paul II said in Laborem exercens that by his work, man shares in the image of his Creator.
Christian theologians see the Fall of man profoundly affecting human work. In Genesis 3:17, God said to Adam, ’cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life’ (ESV). Leland Ryken points out that, because of the Fall, ’many of the tasks we perform in a fallen world are inherently distasteful and wearisome.’[8] Through the Fall, work has become toil, but John Paul II says that work is a good thing for man in spite of this toil, and ’perhaps, in a sense, because of it’ because work is something that corresponds to man’s dignity and through it he achieves fulfilment as a human being.[9] The Fall also means that a work ethic is needed. As a result of the Fall work has become subject to the abuses of idleness on the one hand, and overwork on the other. Drawing on Aristotle, Ryken suggests that the moral ideal is the golden mean between the two extremes of being lazy and being a workaholic.[10]
Some Christian theologians also draw on the doctrine of redemption to discuss the concept of work. Oliver O’Donovan points out that although work is a gift of creation, it is ’ennobled into mutual service in the fellowship of Christ.’[11]
Leland Ryken argues for seeing the call of God to a particular occupation as a reflection of the gospel call, and suggests that this implies vocational loyalty – ’modern notions of job become deficient’ and ’the element of arbitrariness of one’s choice of work’ is removed.[12]Modern vocation[edit]
Since the establishment of Vocational Guidance in 1908 by the engineer Frank Parsons, the use of the term “vocation” has evolved, with emphasis shifting to an individual’s development of talents and abilities in the choice and enjoyment of a career. This semantic expansion has meant some diminution of reference to the term’s religious meanings in everyday usage.[13]Literary clarification[edit]Vocational School Meaning
