"And
I will give you Pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed
you with knowledge and understanding." -
Jeremiah 3:15
"And
he gave some apostles; and some prophets; some evangelist; and some
pastors; and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints, for the
work of the ministry, for the work of the Body of Christ."
- Ephesians 4:11-12
"Feed
the flock of God which is among you, taking the OVERSIGHT THEREOF,
not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a
ready mind; neither as being Lord's of God's heritage, but 'being
examples to the flocks'." - I Peter 5:2-3
Humanity
today seems to float from one fad to the next. It seems as though
the whole world wants to be identified with something. The whole
of humanity is in such an identity crisis. This need for identification
is natural and is emphasized by Jesus Himself - "He
that is not with me is against me."
However,
our identity should be associated with charisma rather than crisis.
We need to know who we are and what we have been commissioned to
do. We should always identify ourselves with the Holy Spirit, the
Bible, and the Head of the Church, Jesus Christ.
Faith,
Truth and Deliverance Ministries International is aware that people
want to relate and belong to a church fellowship of good quality.
People, many of cults of our day, grow so quickly and deceive so
many people. It is our place, as a local fellowship, to orient the
Scripture, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit, to display what we
believe and represent through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
