Leadership
Studies (Leading and Loving It Web
Conference: The Importance of Influence: Grabbing hold of
the influence that God has given us. Embracing it. Resting in it.)
Although faithful, parental example, not
hypocrisy,
is the greatest form of teaching, nevertheless, children ought to
be brought up to live in purity. The defiled and unclean should learn of annulment and singleness.
The Gifts of God We must not depend merely upon
one-man "pulpit" leadership as the heretical
denominations do. Our gatherings should be enlightened by the
body, those God has given gifts.
1 Cor. 12: 27 Now ye are
the body of Christ, and members in particular. 28 And God hath set
some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly
teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps,
governments, diversities of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? are all
prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30 Have
all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all
interpret? 31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I
unto you a more excellent way.
Marital Sanctity Parents have a
responsibility to raise their daughters with the knowledge that
they must marry the man who shares (or violates) her virginity or
either remain single. Folly
must be prevented. Chastity is a community building block, and
every participating family should strive for obedience. Genetics
is also a community building block. We must provide for our own
first and prevent miscegenation!
Administrative/Staff Sex Control Women
must not
be left alone with a man, including church officials. Pastor
hugs should be avoided.
