0 Comments

 
I. Call to Worship: Psalm 66:1-3a 

II. Offering passage: I Corinthians 16:2 

III. Notes: 
A. Membership 
* The N/T teaches that the local church has elders or overseers who have special responsibility to 
1. equip (Ephesians 4:11) 
2. care for (Acts 20:28) 
3 and teach (1 Timothy 3:2; Titus 1:9) 

* The N/T teaches that the members are to: 
1. respect (1 Thessalonians 5:12f.) 
2. and be submissive to (Hebrews 13:17) these leaders 
a. but not to treat them as infallible (1 Timothy 5:20) 
1. leaders are servants, not masters (Luke 22:26) 
a. and their leadership comes from their call to serve (Acts 20:28) 

IV. Scripture references: 
A. I Cor. 4:21 – “What do you desire? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love and a spirit of gentleness?” 

V. Cross-references: 
A. Matthew 18:15-17 

VI. Quotes: 
A. Martin Luther - ‘When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said “Repent,” He called for the entire life of believers to be one of repentance.’ 

B. David Mathis – ‘All of the Christian life is repentance. Turning from sin and trusting in the good news that Jesus saves sinners aren’t merely a one-time inaugural experiences but the daily substance of Christianity. The gospel is for every day and every moment. Repentance is to be the Christian’s continual posture.’ 

C. Tullian Tchividjian - “What we see here … is that love inspires what the law demands—the law prescribes good works, but only grace can produce them. Gratitude, generosity, honesty, compassion, acts of mercy, and self-sacrifice (all requirements of the law) spring unsummoned from a forgiven heart. This is how God works on us. He picks us, the least deserving, out of the crowd, insists upon being in a relationship with us, and creates in us a new heart, miraculously capable of pleasing Him.”
