00:00:00.000 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03.340 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06.420 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09.760 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12.860 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17.520 Thanks.
00:00:19.620 Jesus said,
00:00:20.740 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25.380 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30.000 So what are the purposes of God for elders to be spiritually mature?
00:00:36.340 Because elders, according to these three texts, are to set an example.
00:00:44.240 Elders should be able to say to the flock of God, imitate me as I imitate Christ.
00:00:49.860 Elders should be able to say to the flock of God, both in their preaching and in their lives,
00:00:55.120 both in their doctrine and in their life,
00:00:58.840 They should be able to say to the flock of God, you would do well to imitate me as I imitate Christ.
00:01:05.800 You would do well to follow me as I follow Christ.
00:01:08.660 I'm not only trying to teach you the right doctrinal tenets in my message,
00:01:13.760 but I'm also trying to live a life that puts these into practice
00:01:18.520 so that you not only can hear and follow, but you can see and follow.
00:01:24.080 Part of the purpose of an elder being spiritually mature is because an elder is called by God to be an example.
00:01:33.280 An elder should be a step or two, if not 10, but at least a step or two ahead of at least the majority of the congregation.
00:01:43.960 Because it is a great benefit to the people of God.
00:01:48.460 The reason we don't like the idea of someone in the church,
00:01:52.480 pastors or whoever it might be,
00:01:53.880 being more mature than somebody else
00:01:55.520 is because we live in an egalitarian age.
00:01:59.000 One of the great enemies of the church
00:02:01.240 is the enemy of egalitarianism.
00:02:03.160 And some of you are like, really?
00:02:04.940 Because I thought that you just devoted four weeks to that.
00:02:08.640 I thought, surely we can now move on.
00:02:11.280 But what I want you to see is the overarching banner
00:02:13.280 of egalitarianism has multiple expressions
00:02:16.040 that fall underneath.
00:02:17.740 So feminism is one expression of egalitarianism 0.96
00:02:22.840 as it pertains to the relationship between men and women.
00:02:26.840 But egalitarianism still reigns supreme in the church,
00:02:31.920 influenced by the culture,
00:02:33.440 in terms of not just the relationship between men and women,
00:02:35.840 but elder and congregant.
00:02:38.820 See, there is much in your heart,
00:02:40.680 if you don't actively seek to put it to death,
00:02:42.780 that wants to say, uh-uh, you're not better than me.
00:02:46.840 well why why would it be the intention of god for an elder to be more sanctified than the members
00:02:55.140 of their church set the believers an example imitate me as i imitate christ not domineering
00:03:05.200 over those in your charge but being examples to the flock it is difficult brothers and sisters
00:03:10.780 to set an example if you are not running the race as to win this is something that should come back
00:03:19.780 into our pulpits and come back into our doctrine as the people of god a godly christian competition
00:03:26.280 did you know that there is actually a sanctified competitive spirit paul the apostle does not say
00:03:33.560 I run and carefully pace myself as though to finish no he says I run as to win follow me as
00:03:43.340 I follow Christ implying what a very charitable way of saying I'm ahead of you and him saying
00:03:51.600 and it is my goal to beat you I'm running as to win I beat my body my flesh and make it my slave
00:04:00.880 I throw off anything that hinders and so easily entangles
00:04:04.220 so that I might run the race set before me,
00:04:06.720 not just to finish, but to win.
00:04:09.880 There is a godly, a godly competitive spirit
00:04:13.040 that is not rooted in pride and arrogance,
00:04:15.320 but rather rooted in a zeal for the glory of God
00:04:18.600 and that you might be a blessing and a benefit
00:04:20.980 to those who can follow you as you follow Christ.
00:04:24.720 And the aversion in the heart of the congregant
00:04:27.320 against exactly what I am espousing
00:04:30.660 is the spirit of egalitarianism and pride.
00:04:34.840 And I commend you to put it to death by grace.
00:04:37.760 All right, all right, all right.
00:04:38.880 Stop twisting my arm.
00:04:40.100 I know you want to hear the inside scoop.
00:04:42.780 Here it is, the glorious vision
00:04:44.540 of Right Response Ministries
00:04:45.940 for the first half of next year, 2023.
00:04:48.880 We have not one, not two, but three massive endeavors
00:04:52.860 that we will accomplish by the grace of God.
00:04:56.660 The first you already know about.
00:04:58.160 It's our Theonomy and Post-Millennialism Conference, May 5th, 6th, and 7th, with James
00:05:03.340 White, Joe Boot, Gary DeMar, Dale Partridge, and yours truly, Pastor Joel Webin.
00:05:08.220 This is selling out incredibly fast.
00:05:10.700 By the time this commercial airs, you may not even be able to get a ticket.
00:05:14.480 I really don't know.
00:05:16.100 So don't waste another moment.
00:05:17.440 Go to rightresponseconference.com, rightresponseconference.com to join us for the Theonomy and Post-Millennialism
00:05:25.240 conference next year. Now, this is where you come in. We need your help. Our next two endeavors
00:05:31.160 are number one, a documentary-style film, and number two, a brand new studio. Both of these
00:05:38.380 things are seeking to accomplish one primary goal, which is excellent, high-quality, glorious
00:05:45.660 Christian media. We are tired of, as Christians, doing things poorly. We've done our best with
00:05:53.680 what we have, but by God's grace, we want to do even better. This is not going to be just another
00:05:59.480 video. This is not going to be a sermon or an interview or a podcast, but we're going to make
00:06:04.860 a documentary style film. And we're going to be hiring Nathan Anderson, the director of On Earth
00:06:10.580 As It Is In Heaven, a very, very successful post-millennialism documentary that's on Amazon
00:06:16.600 and YouTube, came out a couple of years ago. He's going to be flying in from Chile to help us direct
00:06:22.360 this film. And our documentary is going to be on post-millennialism and theonomy, why it's
00:06:29.180 biblically valid, why it's absolutely necessary, and why, by the grace of God, theonomy and
00:06:34.920 post-millennialism are currently on the rise. So we're going to make this film and we need
00:06:40.560 your support. And not just this film, but we're going to make all of our videos and podcasting
00:06:46.620 and everything we do here at Right Response Ministries better. We want to achieve the
00:06:52.400 highest level of quality and Christian excellence that we possibly can. That's where the new studio
00:06:58.420 comes in. This new film, our date that we're shooting for is that it would be complete
00:07:03.460 and publicly available in May or June of 2023, next year. The studio, our goal is that it would
00:07:11.320 be completely done in its construction and the equipment and the setup and the stage and everything
00:07:16.260 by January, February of 2023 next year.
00:07:21.820 We need your prayers.
00:07:23.300 We need your encouragement.
00:07:24.860 And for those of you who are willing to do so,
00:07:27.080 we need your generous support.
00:07:29.200 You can give towards these endeavors
00:07:30.880 by going to rightresponseministries.com forward slash donate.
00:07:36.160 Again, that's rightresponseministries.com forward slash donate.
00:07:42.060 Thank you so much for all your help.
00:07:44.220 God bless.
00:07:44.860 Thanks so much for listening,
00:07:45.840 but real quick before you go do us a small favor take a moment and leave us a five-star review if
00:07:52.060 you enjoyed the show this is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically
00:07:57.660 faithful content to as many people as possible thanks so much
