I'll be the first
Although I am not a man..I will give my definition of a man of God..
I believe a man of God is one who is totally submitted to God. This means that nothing is more important to him than being a God-Chaser , pleasing God and doing his will. All of his goals, interests, activities etc. line up with the word of God. He makes no major decisions without consulting with his Heavenly Father first...and is obedient to direction from God. He has a strong relationship with God and you can see fruits produced in his life.
The converse of everything I'm saying is that there is no person, organization, career, etc. that is more important than God to this man. The majority of his conversations, activities will be more about spreading the gospel, winning souls etc. And even when he is in a secular setting ..his main goal will be to win souls!! Of course there is a need for balance...but you will not look at this man and say oh he's a badd Que ... you will see this man and say he's a mighty man of God...not because of the things he says..but because of what he does.
