Broken World (sub: on leadership and submission)
Broken World (by: Across The Sky)
Promises shattered
Answers don’t come
Friends say goodbye
Plans come undone
Dreams get crushed
Lies get told
Words can turn cruel
Hearts can grow cold
CHORUS
In a broken world where we cry to feel
Some hope that helps these hearts to heal
You’re my strength, You’re my refuge
In a broken world, Jesus I’m holding to You
You make sense of the madness
And You make darkness flee
You bring such a calm
To the chaos in me
Show me life
Tell me truth
Day after day I keep running to You
In a broken world where we cry to feel
Some hope that helps these hearts to heal
You’re my strength, You’re my refuge
In a broken world, Jesus I’m holding to You
Long ago, we fell so far
Yet You came to where we are
In a broken world where we cry to feel
Some hope that helps these hearts to heal
You’re my strength, You’re my refuge
In a broken world, Jesus I’m holding to You
*Para sa mga taong maraming pinoprolema, ito ang para sa inyo.

1 Peter 5:1-11
On Leadership:
- The terms Bishop, Elder, and Pastor can be used interchangeably.
- The primary duties of leaders are to feed and lead the flock of God (Preaching, bible study, and direction). Administration is not their biggest concern.
- The flock is God’s, and not ours. Walang alipores system.
-
The term Elders connote the plurality of leadership. Walang monopoly.
On Submission:
- Submitting to everyone means I am vulnerable.
- There is a difference between submission and obedience (Heb. 13:17)
- Obedience is the responsive action towards authority (outward)
- Submission is the attitude towards authority
- Grumbling and murmuring is a sign of un-submission (Num. 12)
- The sheep: are animals that easily get lost, more so when they are intentionally lead astray. they are very sensitive creatures, eating wet grass would cause them to have diarrhea. They cannot distinguish good food from bad food.
Yun lang muna. Malapit na matapos ang sigwa. Lahat ng papuri sa Kanya!
