How Does the Eternal Govern Through Humans?
Satan has deceived the whole world including, to the extent possible, the "very elect" (Rev 12:9, Matt 24:24). This deception reaches right into the heart of most of the
English Bible translations that many of us use as a foundation for doctrine. When trying to avoid deception, no area of study is more important than government. Once people are deceived into believing they must follow a certain person or
organization, they become entrapped. Fighting other deceptions from that leader or organization are much more difficult because it seems there is at least some divine authority behind the false teaching.
How does the Eternal govern through humans? How does God want His church to function and how should what has been called "church government" be set up? This excellent, well-thought out and Biblically supported article explores these and other issues that have been greatly debated by churches.
This research delves into topics such as:
- The Paradox of Human Governments
- What many people believe VS. what the Bible actually says
- Do church leaders have authority like the old testament kings of Israel?
- How did it all go WRONG??
- What MAKES an Apostle?
- If everyone is FREE to disagree, can anything be accomplished?
- The Practice of "ordination"
- "Ordination" forced into King James Version of the Bible
- King James Translation Errors Regarding Church Government
- Spiritual gifts for all the Brethren
- Elders, Overseers and Pastors
- Bible teaches Christ-directed leadership not government form
- No New Testament leader ever named a successor
- Will congregations fragment without strong leadership?
- Do Church leaders have authority like Moses?
