Bible Question: Hi! I would like to know what the scriptures say about someone being ordained to preach the gospel? A gentleman in our church believes that anyone speaking at our church need be ordained by some governing body in order to qualify to speak. I recently started attending a Missionary Baptist church and this practice is new to me. I thought men are ordained of God to preach the gospel. Any verses or views on this subject would be appreciated. I will be off line after 4:00 p.m. EST. but will look foward to your reply. Thank you for your time. JAL |
Bible Answer: Jeremiah 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding. Ezekiel 3:17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. Romans 10:14-15 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Praise the Lord! Norm |
