Christ IS the head of the church
Eph5.22
Illustration/Introduction
Husbands with wives having problems with in-laws.
The husband may feel they had to choose between parents and wife.
Honour parents vs love wife?
Not true because the LORD who gave both commandments is not contradictory.
We can feel a similar contradiction when it comes to managing the church.
Putting the local church first at the expense of the kingdom of GOD.
Or putting the Kingdom of GOD first and neglecting the local church.
How do we love the kingdom of heaven and the local church without the tension?
Is there even a conflict between loving the kingdom of GOD and the local church?
I do not think there is a conflict - like honouring parents and loving our wives.
5 suggestions from Scripture on how to deconflict this.
Love Christ first - not the local church.
Like parents making their child an idol.
The spouse making the other spouse an idol…etc.Christ must always be first…not the local church.
Christ Himself is first.
Do not fear the congregation - fear GOD.
The Elders, under shepherds answers to the chief shepherd, not to the flock.
When you answer to Christ, His true sheep will follow you but His enemies will persecute you. .
Manage and rule the church out of love for Christ and His people.
Not out of fear.
GOD is love and rule in love not from fear.
Love makes you bold but not careless.
Fear binds and stifle you from acting in faith.
, .
Use our gifts under the supervision of the Holy Spirit according to Scripture.
Be conscious of the facts that many things we use and learn at work and in the world is not meant for the church of Jesus Christ.
Learn to discern what is Biblical and what is worldly.
Pray and submit to one another.
Engage one another.
Learn to submit to one another.
That is how Christ would want us to serve Him together.
, .
And to all Christian, Paul wrote .
Let us remember the charge given to all Elders/Pastors in;
Good intention and godly devotion in our calling is not a feeling.
Our calling does not allow us to be careless and illogical.
Our serve in the church of Jesus Christ is about knowing how Christ himself would manage His church and acting as He would.
Let us pray.
