....I will keep them all in prayer. :prayer

For myself I pray:

~For God to grant me wisdom.

~For more patience and to be less critical.

~For more humility...

I think it's a really good idea to support George and how he is trying to further the kingdom. His job isn't an easy one. Let's have faith that our God is big enough to overcome the dissention and that we as His children will be small enough to get out of His way.

And with that, we have to support all involved. We all have been affected to one degree or another.

I can't think of a better way to show the Spirit in us than to keep all in Prayer.

Amen.

I certainly don't serve George. In fact, I was shocked that I would be asked to help out around the boards, as I am not afraid to speak up about what I am concerned about and, as was pointed out, even agreed with some points of those who also had concerns. In fact, the fact that I was asked to help shows how George isn't trying to hide anything. He obviously didn't ask "lapdogs", because I've openly shown my concerns and frustrations.

I don't serve George, but, after sticking it out and working through the concerns I have had, and the frustrations that I felt, I certainly have faith in and respect him. Perfect? No, of course not. But he has integrity. I wouldn't even be here anymore if he didn't.

No one has rights in the Kingdom of God! We are all to be servants of one another.

Christian Bill of Rights

The Christian Bill of Rights

by Steve Camp

1. As believers in the Lord Jesus Christ we have only one right: and that is to give up all rights to ourselves (Phil. 2:1-5).

2. We have the right to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Him (Mt. 16:24-26).

3. We have the right to esteem others more highly than ourselves; and love our neighbor as ourselves (Mt. 22:39, Phil. 2:1-5).

4. We have the right to fulfill the law of Christ in bearing one another's burdens of sin (Gal. 6:2).

5. We have the right to be wronged and to maintain a faithful testimony (1 Cor. 6:7).

6. We have the right to live in unreciprocated self-sacrificial love (Eph. 5:1-2).

7. We have the right to forgive others the smaller debt, as God in Christ has forgiven us the larger debt (Eph. 4:32).

8.We have the right to suffer for the gospel and to take the blows for the One who took the blows for us (1 Pt. 2:23).

9. We have the right to be "subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed, to malign no one, to be uncontentious, gentle, showing every consideration for all men" (Titus 3:1-2).

10. We have the right to not be political agitators trading the truth of His Word to play politics with men's souls; thinking that true spiritual change occurs through legislation rather than the transforming power of the gospel of grace.

"Accept His worthiness for my unworthiness, His sinlessness for my transgressions, His purity for my uncleanness, His sincerity for my guile, His truth for my deceits, His meekness for my pride, His constancy for my backslidings, His love for my enmity, His fullness for my emptiness, His faithfulness for my treachery, His obedience for my lawlessness, His glory for my shame, His devotedness for my waywardness, His holy life for my unchaste ways, His righteousness for my dead works, His death for my life!"

-A Puritan Prayer-

11. We have the right to turn the other cheek (Mt. 5:39).

12. We have the right to be stripped of all earthly things (Mt. 5:40-42).

13. We have the right to not repay evil for evil and to be at peace with all men as much as it depends on you (Roms. 12:17-18).

14. We have the right to love our enemies, do good to them that hate us, bless those who curse us and pray for those that despitefully use us (Mt. 5:44-45).

15. We have the right to pursue holiness-not personal happiness (1 Pt. 1:13-16).

16. We have the right not to be ashamed of the gospel (2 Tim. 1:6-14).

17. We have the right not to harbor revenge, anger, bitterness, clamoring, wrath, malice and slander (Eph. 4:31).

18. We have the right not to quench or grieve the Holy Spirit. (Eph. 4:30, 1 Thess. 5:19).

19. We have the right to repent of and not cherish our sins (Psalm 66:18).

20. We have the right to guard the trust; to contend for the once for all delivered to the saints faith (1 Tim. 6:20, Jude 3).

21. We have the right to train our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Eph. 6:1-3).

22. We have the right to reflect God's covenantal relationship with us by honoring our vows in the covenant of marriage (Mt. 19:6).

23. We have the right to worship Christ Jesus as God of very God; Creator; Redeemer; Sovereign Lord and Ruler of all (Col. 1:15-19, Heb. 1:8, Phil. 2:5-11).

24. We have the right to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy, acceptable pleasing unto God (Roms. 12:1).

25. We have the right to live in the expectancy and hope of the Lord's return by which we purify ourselves (1 John 3:3).

26. We have the right to march daily on our knees in prayer; praying for our leaders in government; our church leaders; our fellow believers; our families; and the lost (Lk 18:1).

27. We have the right to praise and glorify God according to how He has revealed Himself through the pages of His Word (Col. 3:16-17).

28. We have the right to the accountability of the local church; to obey our leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over our souls, as those who will give an account (Heb. 13:17).

29. We have the right to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations (Mt. 28:18-20).

30. We have the right to have no rights apart from Christ Himself; "for whoever wishes to save his life shall lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake shall find it" (Mt. 16:25, John 15:5).
