Know the Rules . . . Know the Roles

I urge that requests, prayers, intercessions, and thanks be offered on behalf of ALL people . . . that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all Godliness and dignity. Such prayer for ALL is good and welcomed before God our Savior, since He wants ALL people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the TRUTH. For there is ONE God and ONE intermediary between God and humanity, JESUS CHRIST . . . For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle . . . and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and TRUTH. So I want the men to pray in EVERY place, lifting up HOLY hands without anger or dispute.  (1 Timothy 2:1-8)


There is ONE God and ONE way to Him . . . Through JESUS alone. Once we come to this knowledge and accept Him as our Lord and Savior, He gives us specific ROLES in which we serve Him. While many feel as though there are many ways to God, there is only one . . . God has reached down to man via the cross of CHRIST. While many want to choose how to serve Him, He in fact gifts us in ways to serve Him and the people of God. 

We must know the RULES and know our ROLES in order for the Body of Christ to function properly and for the unknowing public to clearly see God at work. 

If we are confused, how can we expect the world to understand.
