A quick thought on church leaders


The church was given elders and deacons not to restrict ministry to a few but to serve as an example to follow for all.

Arthur,

Now that is what I call succinct and so very true!

James said...

as long as they can ensure their authority is heeded because they will give an account...so they must fence the pulpit, the table, and the administration of gifts during the public meeting...

yup.

Art, Aussie, James-

I love James' comment directly above mine, its been a long time since I've seen such an honest and straightforward representation of a position. What a perfect reference for illustration purposes when comparing/contrasting ecclesiologies to the sacred texts.
