THE GOSPEL-EXALTING QUALIFICATIONS FOR ELDERSHIP (PART 8)

The Gospel-Exalting Qualifications For Eldership (Part 8) - 1 Timothy 3:1-7 Preached by: Ptr. Enteng Ramoneda Maturity can really be tricky. It is easy to say that a person is mature because he manifested other qualifications of an Elder. But unless this is proven true for a period of time and outside the faith community, it cannot be said to be a marker of biblical maturity. Knowing full well the damage into the name of Christ and the credibility of the Church if an Elder’s testimony would be destroyed, Paul gave two more qualifications of an Elder (1 Timothy 3:6-7) where most unqualified ordained Elders may still have to prove themselves and by making sure, to keep them from being vulnerable to Satan’s destructive schemes. He wanted Timothy to make sure that he will only ordain aspiring Elders who have proven time-tested and community-attested maturity. Learn with us and be persuaded that it cannot be said that one is ready for Eldership unless his testimony is proven by time and the community.
