People must be led. When there is a leader, he is followed. The spiritual leader is the one who has made the most progress in knowing God and is serving Him. Such a person has authority with God which no one can take away from him. No one can remove him from leadership. No one can put him into leadership. His intimate knowledge of God, his close walk with Him, his sacrificial service for the Lord and His people, put him apart from the others, and those who want true spiritual leadership turn to him. This is my understanding of spiritual leadership.

EVERY BELIEVER IN MINISTRY Why do any of us do ministry? The answer is simple and Biblical. “As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” All who are saved are called to Christian ministry.
