One part of the answer is implicit in 1 Timothy 5:17-25. The importance of the congregation's trust in its leadership. A member's mistakes may affect only the member, but an elder's mistakes affect the whole church. Truthfully, if a church is to continue to exist and to carry out its God-given task, it must support and trust its leadership. God has laid out these specifics in his word. We'll study them in this week's podcast from Lighthouse Amherstburg.

We see that today, there is a turning from the truth of Gods Word. 1 John 4: 1- 3, John talks about the future and the man of sin, the antichrist, and describes him. He says, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit." This is very similar to what Paul is talking about in our text.

In this week's podcast we look at what it means to be a servant leader and the qualifications of a deacon. We sometimes get the wrong idea that if you're not qualified to be an elder, you can be a deacon. When we look at the spiritual qualifications we realise that all servants need to be spiritually mature. God has set high standards for leadership in the church.
