Leadership at the Lamb of God Christian Community consists of a
"set ministry" father who is responsible for the overall work and must give an
account to the Lord Jesus. Heb.13:17. In compliance with the scripture in
Eph.1:9,10. (NAS) "He has made known to us the mystery of His will, according to his
kind intention which he purposed in him with a view to an administration suitable to
the fulness of times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, the things in
the heavens, and things on the earth." We have ministry sons and daughters who are
proven by time, grace, and process, where gifts and ministries begin to emerge into
responsible servants and ultimately gifted ministries. I Thess.5:12-13 states "And
we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labor among you and are over you in the
Lord and admonish you and esteem them very highly in love for their sakes. And be
at peace among yourselves."
As the Holy Spirit makes known his will the distinction of each member becomes
apparent, the gifting becomes recognized by the body and confirmed by leadership.
These proven vessels become administrators of truth, love, grace, wisdom, knowledge,
revelation, and practicality to the local body. This provides an atmosphere of
health; with strong spiritual relationships "every joint" supplying necessary
nourishment of love and truth to each and every member. This allows the blood of
the Lord Jesus Christ to continually wash us as we walk in the light as he is in
the light.
Finally, the set ministry father has a father in ministry, along with peer
ministry known as presbytery, which gives added vision, strength, confirmation, and
adjustment where needed.
