Ordination of Bro. Fred Knapp
Ordination of Bro. Fred Knapp
I’m honored to preside over the ordination of Bro. Fred Knapp.
Bro. Fred and his daughter Lydia became a member of Faith Bible Baptist Church in February, and later we voted him in as the Associate Pastor.
The members of Faith Bible Baptist has observe Bro. Fred Knapp in the performance of his duties as Associate Pastor and find him worthy to be ordained in the works of the Gospel Ministry.
Pastor Qualification
Pastor Qualification
1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
Charge: Always try the be the Best Pastor, then the Best Preacher.
Churches need Better Pastors, not Better Preachers
28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
