For Sunday, September 22, 2024:
Ezekiel 43:12a NLT: “This is the basic law of the Temple: absolute holiness!”
Holiness – conformation with God’s value system – is mandatory in a place of worship. The Bible says that leaders and teachers are held to higher standards, and all will be judged.
When we use the phrase, “a high view of the Bible,” we believe that the Bible is true and God-inspired. A high view also means that we treat the Bible’s commands as God’s instructions, and we do our best to live our lives God’s way.
Q: Does your church still need God? A large church with abundant resources will have most positions filled. We have a choir director, Bob leads a Bible study and his wife handles children’s ministry. That all sounds good, but don’t ever let God show up with nothing left for him to do. God, his Son Jesus and the Holy Spirit should have a permanent role as leader of the leaders. Pray to God and talk things over with him.
Include the Lord in your church’s planning. After all, he’s already included you in the Kingdom!
