Leadership God's children follow leaders too-spiritual leaders. And poor Christian leadership can result in others going astray. It is because of this responsibility that Christian leaders will be subject to a harsher judgment from God than will Christians who are not leaders. God can turn anyone into a leader. He can take ordinary people and give them extraordinary work to accomplish by his power. The best example of a leader is Jesus Christ. He is God's Son, the holder of ultimate power, who humbled himself by becoming a lowly human being and by dying for sins he didn't commit. If you are in leadership, model yourself after Jesus: Be approachable, don't fight back if you're verbally attacked and look for ways to help others in need. God
establishes all leaders. There are many examples in the Bible of political
leaders God brought into, and removed from, power. |
