But then the Ministers of today as stated earlier deny the very purpose OF THE MINISTRY!
Does the head of the Church require his people to be perfect?
Be ye therefore perfect EVEN AS your Father which is in Heaven is perfect. Matt. 5:48
So yes the fruit of todays Assemblies is obvious. One cannot say the one man system works on the basis that it IS working. |
Tomatoe, Tomatoe.........Pastor.......Elder. What does it matter what you call them? If they are ordained, they are ordained. If they have the oversight it doesn't matter what title they hold. To different organizations the terms mean different things.
The Head of the church does NOT require His people to be perfect. They are to be perfected. They will NEVER be perfect down here. We are all in the process of being perfected and will NEVER reach the place that our flaws are gone until we are freed from these bodies.
Are you stating that you believe in the doctrine of sinless perfection?
