คำสั่งและความรับผิดชอบในคริสตจักรเป็นที่รู้จักของเราผ่านพระวจนะของพระเจ้า (คัมภีร์ไบเบิล). ในบทความก่อนหน้านี้, พระเจ้าจะเกี่ยวกับคำสั่งและความรับผิดชอบในการแต่งงาน, ครอบครัว, และในที่ทำงานถูกกล่าวถึง. In this article God’s will regarding the Body of Christ and the order and responsibilities in the church will be covered. Do the local churches still operate and walk in submission and obedience to Jesus Christ; the Living Word according to God’s will or has the church deviated and gone walking on self-chosen paths and act according to their own insight, knowledge and understanding and established the church according to their own human insights, standards and patterns?
God is a God of order
พระเจ้า, ผู้สร้างสวรรค์และโลกและทุกสิ่งภายใน, is a God of order, structure and clarity. The Most High is not vague, unclear and doesn’t create disorder. What God said, and still says, stands forever and never changes.
God was clear in the Old Covenant and appointed leaders, ผู้เฒ่า, and servants, who each had their own role and responsibility within the house of Israel and in the house of God.
God appointed (สูง)นักบวช, ผู้เฒ่า, ผู้เผยพระวจนะ, ผู้พิพากษา, kings and other servants.
They were all appointed by God to serve and represent Him and to teach, lead, ตักเตือน, and judge the people according to His word and the กฎของโมเสส, which was meant for the carnal people (ซึ่งเป็นของวงศ์วานอิสราเอล) and represented His will.
Everyone knew his place and position and the responsibility that came with the position. They lived according to the order, which God instituted in His house and in the promised land, and according to His ordinances and laws.
The leaders of the house of Israel left God’s way and relied on their own wisdom, insight and understanding
อย่างไรก็ตาม, at some point, the leaders and elders of the house of Israel went their own way. The relied on their own wisdom, insight and understanding. The leaders changed a little here and there to the words, กฤษฎีกา, and laws of God.
The leaders didn’t’ make major changes, but small changes. So that they were not noticeable to the people.
Through the changes of the leaders and elders, คำพูด, กฤษฎีกา, and laws of God were replaced by the words, ordinances and laws of people. คำพูด, กฤษฎีกา, and laws of people became more important than the words, ordinances and laws of God.
The leaders’ behavior and the changes they made showed that they were not satisfied with their God. What God had set in place was not good enough and didn’t work for them.
Their God couldn’t give them what they longed for and didn’t satisfy their carnal will, ตัณหา, และความปรารถนา.
And so the leaders and servants of the Lord came up with a better idea and relied on their own understanding and committed adultery with the world. They turned away from the Lord and turned to pagan idols and served other gods, who gave them what their unrepented heart longed for. And the people followed their example.
The leaders put themselves on the throne of God and did what was wise and sensible in their eyes, whereby they gave place to satan to not only rule in their lives, but through their lives rule in the temple of God. (อ่านด้วย: How does the enemy enters God’s house?).
God’s people committed adultery and defiled and broke the covenant
Gods covenant was defiled and broken, not because of the Lord but because of the behavior, wickedness and abominations of His covenant people. (โอ้. เยเรมีย์ 31:31-32, เอเสเคียล 44:7-8).
God’s people left ความคิดของพระเจ้า และวิธีการ. They defiled their lives with the impurities of carnal people and the world. They were led by the ruler of the world (มาร), who is the god and ruler of the Gentiles (คนชั่วร้าย).
Instead of staying faithful to their Redeemer and obeying His word and by keeping the Law of Moses and differentiated themselves from the pagan nations, God’s people committed adultery and became world like.
God’s people did evil and committed the same abominations as the Gentiles.
The abomination of desolation was placed in God’s house. The temple was no longer a house of prayer. But the temple had become a den of thieves, where God no longer was in charge and worshipped, but man was in charge and worshipped.
Why don’t people not learn from history?
People should learn from history, to ensure that history won’t repeat itself.
Especially Christians should be familiar with the fallacies and false doctrines of God’s carnal people (บ้านของอิสราเอล). They should have learned from their foolish ways (that led God’s people astray), their evil, adultery with the world and apostasy to prevent them from making the same mistakes and doing the same evil in the Church of the New Covenant, ซึ่งถูกผนึกไว้ด้วยพระโลหิตของพระเยซูคริสต์.
อย่างไรก็ตาม, the Church that is delivered, cleansed and justified by Jesus Christ and His blood and is committed to the rulership of Christ, ใครคือ หัวหน้าคริสตจักร, has not learned anything from the past. The Church has gone the same way as God’s carnal people in the Old Covenant and allowed the same fallacies, ความไม่สะอาด, and idols and has become word like.
Not only is sin normalized and allowed in the church, but the church leaders have given their own twist to the organization and ordinances of the church, instead of staying obedient to God’s Word and ordinances, and remain faithful to Him.
The order and responsibilities in the church are changed through the influence of carnal people, who think they are wise and sensible, but are not.
Because if you think you know it better than God and change His institutions, then you are not wise and understanding, but prideful and foolish and you shall go under in the pride and foolishness of the flesh.
Jesus Christ is the Head of His Church
The man is head of the wife, the father and mother are the head of the child and the master (นายจ้าง) เป็น head of the servant (employee) and Jesus Christ is Head of His Church.
Jesus is the Head and remains the Head of His Church; พระกายของพระองค์บนโลก (the congregation of born again believers (โอ้. เอเฟซัส 5:23; โคโลสี 1:18)).
Jesus decides and He speaks, builds, สาขาวิชา, and chastises the born again believers by the Holy Spirit, ผู้ทรงสถิตอยู่ในการทรงสร้างใหม่. So that His Church stays connected and united with Him and knows His thoughts (ซึ่งได้มาจากพระบิดา) และ walk on His ways (the ways of His Father).
Christians are those, who by faith in Jesus Christ and regeneration in Him have become a new creation, จิตวิญญาณคือใคร.
Christians are members of a spiritual body instead of a carnal body.
Jesus lives on in His disciples, who are together the resurrection Body of Christ on earth and by faith in their Redeemer Jesus Christ they walk in His word and commandments and are His witnesses (โอ้. จอห์น 8:31, 14:15-23; 15:10; 17:20-23; 2 ทิโมธี 2:14, 1 จอห์น 4:2).
After coming to the knowledge of the truth Christians are no longer led by the sinful flesh and lying spirits but the Spirit and the holy Spirit of truth
Christians live on earth in a earthly body, but they are no longer led by their depraved nature; the will lusts, และความปรารถนาของเนื้อหนังที่เป็นบาป, และเป็นผู้ครองโลก (มาร), และบาปและความตาย.
Born again Christians have come to the knowledge of the truth and are led by their new godly nature and the Holy Spirit (พระวิญญาณแห่งความจริง) และพระคำ, ใครอยู่ในนั้น. (โอ้. ชาวโรมัน 8:9-17; 2 โครินเธียนส์ 7:1; เอเฟซัส 2; โคโลสี 1:21-23; 3:1-17; 1 ปีเตอร์ 3:18; 4:1-2)
As a result of the new birth and the abiding of the Holy Spirit and Christ in them, they shall walk in obedience to His words and commandments in the faith in the truth and represent and do the will of the Father and the Son and live a righteous life on earth, which leads to hate and การประหัตประหารของโลก, as Jesus foretold us.
What does the Bible say about the order in the church?
The order in the Church is written in the Bible. พระเจ้าพระบิดา, พระเจ้าพระบุตร (คำ) and God the Holy Spirit are present and operating in the Church through the lives of Christians, who laid down their lives and submitted to God and live in obedience to His will.
Although people consider the name of their denomination often more important and attach more value to it than the พระนามพระเยซูคริสต์ and being part of His Body, ความจริงก็คือ, that there is only one Body and not bodies.
แน่นอน, there are different local churches and as we read in the Book of Revelation, every church has its own battles to fight.
Every local church deals with different (territorial) adversaries, depending on the demonic powers that operate in the lives of people and areas. But all these churches belong to the Father, the Word and the Spirit. And they all need to act according to God’s Word (คัมภีร์ไบเบิล) และพระวิญญาณของพระองค์.
The church should be built on the foundation of God’s Word
If every denomination overhaul its own belief system, ความคิดเห็น, ผลการวิจัย, experiences and (มนุษย์) กฤษฎีกา, rules and laws, which are implemented throughout the ages by influential well-known preachers, and take the Bible and built upon the foundation of God’s Word, on the knowledge, commandments and revelation of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and His power, there wouldn’t be different denominations.
If that would occur, Christians wouldn’t repeat the same words as the Christians, who lived in Paul’s time, และพูด, I am of this denomination and belong to that preacher, and I belong to the church of … and that preacher, and I belong to … church (กรอกช่องว่าง).
But then all Christians would say, I belong to Jesus Christ and the Church of Christ (1 โครินเธียนส์ 1:10-13).
Then Christians would no longer believe the lies of the devil and embrace the works of the darkness and allow them in the church and leave the souls in their sick state and lead them to hell.
But there would be order and unity in the congregation and spoken and acted from the Word and the Spirit according to พระประสงค์ของพระเจ้า.
Then there would be clarity in the church and roles would correspond to the roles that are written in the Bible instead of roles, ชื่อ, and names that are made up and instituted by people, but God knows nothing about.
The powerful army of Christ
Then the army of Christ would no longer be passive and in retreat, but be committed to God’s Kingdom and be ready at all times and spiritual active, and refute the devil’s lies with the truth of God’s Word, ทำลายกิจการแห่งความมืด, and plunder souls from hell.
Just like in God’s heavenly army, and the assembly of God’s carnal people Israel, God has also appointed in His church people, who by faith and regeneration in Christ have become a new creation and entered God’s Kingdom and live under the rulership of Jesus Christ the King and speak, act and walk from His Kingdom, in a role in the church.
There is one Body, one Spirit, one Lord, หนึ่งศรัทธา, บัพติศมาครั้งหนึ่ง, One God and Father of all
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, หนึ่งศรัทธา, บัพติศมาครั้งหนึ่ง, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all and in you all. แต่พระคุณนั้นประทานแก่เราทุกคนตามขนาดที่พระคริสต์ประทานให้ (เอเฟซัส 4:4-7)
All believers are members of one body; พระกายของพระคริสต์. ในพระคริสต์, they are cleansed, sanctified and justified by His blood, ที่ บัพติศมา in water and the baptism with the Holy Spirit, และเป็นของพระเจ้า.
The believers are born of the same God and belong to the same Father and serve Him and Jesus Christ the Lord of their lives.
The Lord Jesus gave to all believers the same assignment to be His witnesses on earth and to preach the gospel, การกลับใจ, และการปลดบาป. The signs that follow the believers are, that in the Name of Jesus they shall cast out devil, พวกเขาจะพูดภาษาใหม่ๆ, they shall take up serpents and if they drink any deadly thing, มันจะไม่ทำร้ายพวกเขา, they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover (โอ้. เครื่องหมาย 16:15-19, ลุค 24:47-49).
But although Jesus gave this assignment to all believers, the believers also have a specific role, task and place in the Church.
A Body needs all His senses, body parts and organs to function and live
A body needs all his senses, body parts and organs to function and live on earth. The same applies to the spiritual Body of Christ, who needs all believers, to function and live on earth.
Not everyone shall be the hand and not everyone shall be the foot. ดังนั้น, สิ่งสําคัญคือต้อง ติดตามพระเยซู, who shall reveal to you by the Holy Spirit your task and place in the body of Christ.
Don’t be jealous and envious at each other, but respect everyone’s place.
The diversities of gifts, administrations, and operations in the church
In the church are diversities of gifts, administration and operations. But although the gifts, administrations and operations in the church differs, they derive from the same God; พระเจ้าพระบิดา, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all (1 โครินเธียนส์ 12:4-6)
พระคำกล่าวว่า, that the gifts derive from the Holy Spirit, the administrations from the Lord Jesus Christ, and the operations from God the Father.
The operations of God in the church
Everything derives from God. The diversities of operations in the Church, both the administrations and the gifts are instituted by God and originate from God.
God has appointed people in the Church for His service, first apostles (delegates of Christ, who are sent with an order and the full power of attorney to act in the place of the Sender*), secondarily prophets (speakers for God and preachers of righteousness) and thirdly teachers (teachers of God’s Word).
After that miracles. Then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
Now ye are the Body of Christ, and members in particular. And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues (1 โครินเธียนส์ 12:27-28)
The administrations of Jesus in the Church
Jesus gave and leads the administrations of the apostles, ผู้เผยพระวจนะ, ผู้ประกาศข่าวประเสริฐ, ศิษยาภิบาล, ซึ่งเป็นครูด้วย.
They are the elders (spiritual overseers) and represent Christ in the Church and are the reflection of Him and do everything in His Name (ในสิทธิอำนาจของพระองค์, power and His stead)
They are appointed to keep the spiritual order in the church and for the equipping and perfecting of the saints. สำหรับงานกระทรวง, for the edifying of the Body of Christ: until the saints all come in the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God unto a perfect man, ถึงขนาดความไพบูลย์ของพระคริสต์ (โอ้. เอเฟซัส 4:11-13, ชาวโรมัน 12:4-9).
And He gave some, อัครสาวก; และบางส่วน, ผู้เผยพระวจนะ; และบางส่วน, ผู้ประกาศข่าวประเสริฐ; และบางส่วน, ศิษยาภิบาลและอาจารย์; เพื่อความสมบูรณ์ของนักบุญ, สำหรับงานกระทรวง, for the edifying of the Body of Christ: จนกว่าเราทุกคนจะมาร่วมสามัคคีศรัทธา, และความรู้ถึงพระบุตรของพระเจ้า, สู่มนุษย์ที่สมบูรณ์แบบ, ถึงขนาดความไพบูลย์ของพระคริสต์ (เอเฟซัส 4:11-13)
The gifts of the Spirit in the Church
The Holy Spirit gives what the person needs to fulfill the role and task in the Church of Christ and execute Jesus’ คำสั่ง.
สิ่งนี้ใช้ได้กับผู้เชื่อทุกคน, who have become a new creation in Christ and received the Holy Spirit and are led by the Holy Spirit (พระวิญญาณแห่งความจริง). เพราะพระคำกล่าวว่า, that the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man (ทั้งชายและหญิง. (โอ้. จอห์น 14:16-17; 15:26-27; 16:7-15; พระราชบัญญัติ 1:8; 1 โครินเธียนส์ 12:7).
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will (1 โครินเธียนส์ 12:7-11)
This is the order in the Church and these are the different operations, administrations and gifts in the Body of Christ.
All believers are the Church; the Body of Christ on earth and moves in the different operations, administrations, and gifts through the Holy Spirit. They do what Jesus commanded to do and are พยานของพระองค์ บนโลก.
