LEADERSHIP MANDATE

It is the Lord’s church. God’s church must be headed by people whom He pleases. This is the most important thing to know and note. It is the Lord’s church not man’s. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18 Jesus Christ Himself is the owner of the church. The church also is God’s gateway to Heaven. It is a place for the preparation of the souls that have been truly saved for Heaven, which should be the goal of all who believe. THE CHURCH THEREFORE IS A MANIFESTATION IN TIME OF AN ETERNAL PURPOSE. God brings the church forth as His end-time glory.
