The Church And Divine Order
The Church And Divine Order
- You must not live to yourself, but love God’s people. (John 13:34)
- (Acts 2: 41-42,46) Become a part of God’s building – the CHURCH (find a Church which God leads you to, attach yourself there and serve God faithfully there).
- The Church, God’s family and army is a place of RELATIONSHIPS and Order.
- God is your FATHER, Christ is our Head, Lord and Chief Shepherd.
- God set Pastors and Elders in the Church to be Shepherds to us in the local church and teach us God’s Word and lead us in God’s service. (1 Timothy 5:17 , Acts 20: 17, 28)
- God sets the flock in the Church to be brethren and also have a natural respect for people older than ourselves. (Timothy 5:1-2, Romans 1:13, Hebrews 2:11)
- God set spiritual mothers in the Church to be mothers and also teach younger women. (Romans 16:13, Titus 2:4-5, John 19:27)
- God expects you to have a spirit of loyalty, honour, submission and sonship to those in spiritual authority over you. (2 Timothy 2:1, Hebrews 13:17-18)
Pray for your leaders.
- God sets ministries in the church to equip you to serve Him (Ephesians 4:11-12).
