    Leadership in the congregation is to reflect the Lord’s choice rather than seeking diversity as defined in the world.

    “The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task.

Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable, he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the ...read more

Indeed, all who ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,477 views

    The people of God are engaged in a great battle. If we will engage the enemy and advance the cause of Christ, we need to heed the commands issued in this text.

    “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” The Christian Faith is a woman’s religion; and I’m glad this is so! Historically, women were excluded from religion. In the pagan religions extant at the time the Master presented Himself as a ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 22,322 views

However, in our study today, I want to consider how this question applies not only to the lost, but also to each of us who bear the ...read more
