Obey Them That Have The Rule Over You Flashcards
What if I don’t understand the order.
Follow the order don’t be presumptious pray for the understanding
James 1:5
[5]If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Don’t be hasty make diligent inquistion
Deuteronomy 19:15-21
[15]One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
[16]If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong;
[17]Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges, which shall be in those days;
[18]And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother;
[19]Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you.
[20]And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil among you.
[21]And thine eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
Do not do presumptionsly obey
Deuteronomy 17:8-13
[8]If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;
[9]And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and enquire; and they shall shew thee the sentence of judgment:
[10]And thou shalt do according to the sentence, which they of that place which the LORD shall choose shall shew thee; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform thee:
[11]According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.
[12]And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
[13]And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
Obey them that Have the rule over you.
Hebrews 13:7,17
[7]Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
[17]Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
What if your leadership deal rough.
1 Peter 2:17-24
[17]Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
[18]Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
[19]For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
[20]For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
[21]For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
[22]Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
[23]Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
[24]Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Submit to the elders
1 Peter 5:1-6
[1]The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
[2]Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
[3]Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
[4]And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
[5]Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
[6]Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
Obeying leaders honoring leaders is loving God.
Deuteronomy 6:4-7
[4]Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
[5]And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
[6]And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
[7]And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Do not bear any Grudge against them leaders.
Leviticus 19:17-18
[17]Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
[18]Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
Honor. Rebuke not a elder.
Sons of God understand Honor. Wise nation. Holy people.
1 Timothy 5:1-2,17,19
[1]Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;
[2]The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.
[17]Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
[19]Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.
Exodus 20:12
[12]Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Honor them for their counsel and work and love. Leaders of the people.
Ecclesiasticus 44:1-7
[1]Let us now praise famous men, and our fathers that begat us.
[2]The Lord hath wrought great glory by them through his great power from the beginning.
[3]Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms, men renowned for their power, giving counsel by their understanding, and declaring prophecies:
[4]Leaders of the people by their counsels, and by their knowledge of learning meet for the people, wise and eloquent are their instructions:
[5]Such as found out musical tunes, and recited verses in writing:
[6]Rich men furnished with ability, living peaceably in their habitations:
[7]All these were honoured in their generations, and were the glory of their times.
Have Charity Towards Leadership
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
[4]Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
[5]Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
[6]Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
[7]Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
[8]Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
