Kootenai Church Sunday School

Dave Rich continues his series on Christian ethics, focusing on the qualifications of elders in the local church. He discusses the qualifications of not being addicted to wine, not being pugnacious, being considerate and gentle, leading a household well, having a good reputation, being righteous, being holy, and being self-controlled. Rich emphasizes that these qualifications are not just suggestions but necessary for elders. He also mentions that some qualifications, like being a new convert, are not ethical obligations but qualifications. The lesson concludes with a reminder that these qualifications are necessary for elders and that if a man is not qualified, it is important to speak up. The session ends with a prayer, thanking God for his word and protecting his body, and asking for honor on Lord's Day in worship and in all who claim his name.
