lesson 64

Pray reading Matt 13:19

1 Pet 5:1-4 top verse of eldership

save us from ruin

Philadelphia
love

hierarchy
Elder Chen
not some leading bro so and so
follow the line of the elders

never of this position of an elder
spirit of a slave
you just serve

Matt 20 Lord's own word

passive aggressive

the church does not belong not to me, church belongs to God
lead by pattern, not by ruling, you do it first

not easy to setup elders, he got promoted, treated differently
not condemning respect

strictly speaking, no real authority of elders

training the real elders, no inclined ambition, self interest, self exultation
the more training, more humble, the more you learn, the more
John 13 setting up an example what the leader should do

III, do not demand obedience, claim does not work
do a little checking, how much you render...

servant leader(leadership theory)
not telling saints to read the Bible

not pursue position or maintain position

IV
E frame-able
if brother said br Chen go home, no feeling, say praise the Lord

2016 I appointed you, I have my pay day
Lord, I am an unprofitable servant
