It’s on the tough issues (abortion, divorce&remarriage, racism, politics, prophecy, holiness, etc) that we find out who serves/pleases YAH vs who serves/pleases man.
And Hear this – No offense. Not everyone is called to lead. This is okay and normal! We LOVE your gift, we NEED your gift. Yes you have a powerful purpose FROM GOD. That doesn’t mean your gift is to lead the flock. Everyone has a role but not everyone cannot set doctrinal order.
Some will need to follow the flock and the shepherds and serve God under submission instead of coming up with emotion based doctrines that lead people to hell.
This is why the congregations cannot be led by women, or by men with effeminate thought patterns. Assemblies must be led by strong but compassionate teams of men who love the Word more than they love their own lives!
James 3: 1 My brethren, BE NOT MANY MASTERS, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.
1 Timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer NOT a woman to TEACH, nor to USURP AUTHORITY over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Song of Solomon 1:8 If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the FOOTSTEPS of the FLOCK, and feed thy kids beside the SHEPHERDS’ tents.
Acts 15:26
Men that have HAZARDED their LIVES for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Isaiah 55:7 Let the WICKED forsake HIS WAY, and the UNRIGHTEOUS man HIS THOUGHTS: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are MY WAYS HIGHER than YOUR WAYS, and MY THOUGHTS than YOUR THOUGHTS.
Romans 11:33
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how UNSEARCHABLE are his JUDGMENTS, and his ways PAST FINDING OUT!
