Elders and Deacons: Authority in the Christian Church (General)

Publisher: Amazon.com Services LLC
Pages: 65

Lists the qualifications for Elders and Deacons of those bearing resident authority in the local Christian Church. This is a companion teaching with Authority Commensurate With Responsibility. As these offices contain higher authority, so the qualifications of Christian characteristics in these leaders is higher than those of the rank and file in the church. The New English Bible translates in 1 Timothy 3:1 reads: To aspire to leadership is an honourable ambition. It is not the position of leadership that is to be sought, but rather the qualities of leadership. As Jesus fed the five thousand with five loaves and two fish, so He feeds the Christian Church with a five and two: the five-fold ascension gift ministry of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers and the two local functions of Elders and Deacons.
