Godly Leadership

At the end of his letter to the Corinthians, Paul makes some personal requests and gives some final comments concerning those

who would later minister to the church at Corinth. He then presents the qualities that a Godly leader should possess while

leading the church.

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love. 

(1 Corinthians 16:13-14)

God calls leaders for the purpose of guiding the church according to His will. 

What then are the qualities of a great leader of God?

Godly Leadership

PaSTOR

Our Pastor is the leader of our  congregation he also gives advice and counsel to members and people from the community


Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.

2 Timothy 4:2

Clergy

Deacon/Deaconess

The second office in a Baptist church is that of deacon. Whereas pastors are usually selected from persons outside the membership of the congregation, deacons are selected from within the membership.The biblical qualifications for a deacon (1 Timothy 3:8-13) focus primarily on character and relationships within the church, family and community. Deacons are to be persons of impeccable character and deep faith who rely on the Holy Spirit.

Ministries leaders

And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ


Ephesians 4:11-13
