God's Order Works. |
Under the order of local elders and deacons according to the Scriptural pattern, we no longer have the useless overhead of massive salaries and building costs. We are able to give two thirds of the tithe money for mission work and care of the poor throughout the world. Most of the money the we use locally is available to help those who are in need. Very little goes for overhead costs. We have not squandered the Lord's holy tithe on personal projects. We use it for what God intended it to be used for. If local elders cannot resolve an issue, the apostles are available to help and have the authority to help. On doctrinal issues, the apostles are set to determine doctrine. That is the way the Scripture lays it out and local elders are to teach no other doctrine. The Bible's pattern works because it is the pattern that the Lord has shown us. See sayeth He that you build it according to the pattern. The Scriptural way is the way of submission. It's the way of dying to self and living to Christ that will never be popular with the flesh. Whoever will may come.
