God Has Standards For His Ministers
Sunday, February 18th
Text: 1 Timothy 3:1-11
Key verse: 1 Timothy 3: 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
Many churches choose ministers, and leaders, bishops as they want but these ones are not recognized by God because God has standards. If you choose a thief or polygamist, then you have chosen someone who is not even in Christ. You may have chosen him and he is doing the work but he is not recognized by God because no man taketh this honor to himself but them that are chosen of God as was Aaron. You chose a man but never scrutinized him through the scripture.
A Christian does not belong to secret society, cultism or witchcraft. A Christian does not belong to other religion and does not bow to any other god. A Christian does not worship anything that God created. If you are to meet God’s standard as a minister, you must be a true child of God and live a Christ-like life. If as a pastor you sent away your wife and married another wife, now that your eyes have been opened in Holiness Revival Movement, send away the second woman and reconciled with your first wife. Maybe you have not yet come into Holiness Revival Movement. You are still at the gate. Enter inside and enjoy the fullness of the doctrine which says a woman who has a husband is bound to the law of marriage to that husband as long as the husband is alive.
So as long as you are alive that first woman remains your wife. She may be committing adultery but she is your wife. She may be married to another person but she is your wife until she dies and you remain the wife of that man until he dies. If while the man is alive you marry another, you shall be called an adulteress and you know that no adulterer has any part in the kingdom of heaven. If you are a second wife even though married to a pastor, there is no hope of heaven for you. Even your days on earth will not go well how much more of heaven?
Thought for the day: Cleanse yourself from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit.
Song for the day: Create in me a clean heart, O God …
Bible reading for the day: Numbers 27-29
