Scripture serves as our comprehensive guide, providing all the essential tools to empower us for any virtuous endeavor we undertake. While insights from psychology and science may enrich our understanding, it is imperative to filter them through the lens of Scripture. The Bible, in itself, stands as an all-sufficient source. As affirmed in 2 Peter 1:3, “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.”
Within the sacred text, we gain profound insights into the nature of God, as it imparts invaluable knowledge about His character. This knowledge is further reinforced by the promises laid out in 2 Peter 1:4, which emphasizes the bestowal of great and precious promises that allow us to partake in the divine nature and escape the corruption fueled by worldly desires.
Consequently, our commitment to aligning various tasks and responsibilities, especially those assumed by leaders, with the principles delineated in God’s Word is paramount. We invest time and resources in these endeavors to ensure congruence with His divine purposes, design, and mission for the Church, as well as the cultivation of Christ-like character and power. This approach transcends cultural influences, making it universally applicable, thereby enabling individuals worldwide to be equipped through a scripturally anchored training paradigm.
“Come all tired and weary souls; You shall find your rest here.”
