Hermen Who? Understanding Your Bible Part 4 – “Leadership in the New Testament”

UNITY OF THE BODY OF CHRIST Matthew 28:18-20, John 17; Psalm 133 and Ephesians 4:3-7 We see a church so Kingdom minded that we will count the cost and pay whatever the price to see the church move together in the accomplishment of its mission; we will strive for unity while embracing diversity

LEADERS WERE CHOSEN AND APPOINTED –Acts 1:26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.

LEADERS WERE CHOSEN AND APPOINTED –Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead.

LEADERS WERE CHOSEN AND APPOINTED –Romans 16:7 Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.

LEADERS WERE CHOSEN AND APPOINTED –Galatians 1:19 I saw none of the other apostles—only James, the Lord’s brother.

AN UNDERLYING PRINCIPLE OF CHURCH LEADERSHIP IS JESUS TEACHING ON SERVANTHOOD… –Titus 1:1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ… –Philippians 1:1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus…

AN UNDERLYING PRINCIPLE OF CHURCH LEADERSHIP IS JESUS TEACHING ON SERVANTHOOD…

Matthew 20:26-28 …whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

CHRIST-CENTERED SERVANT LEADERSHIP –Romans 12:8; Galatians 5:16, 25b; 2 Timothy 2:2 & Ephesians 5:18 We see a church that is committed to raising, training, empowering and releasing generations of Christlike servant leaders. This will be reflected in all ministries of the church

1 Corinthians 4:1 …so then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God. –Under-rower… –Entrusted… Highest servant was the steward…

Leadership in today’s world and in the larger church requires special skills sets and gifts… –Director/Trusteeship requiring Indemnity Insurance –Human Resourcing –Legal Compliance –Fiscal Management –Policy Oversight and Development – Like today’s Child-Safe Programme
