Rule

. the High Spirit the Creator of it

Acts 20:28

He said to them: “You are well aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile.  But God has shown me that I should not call anyone impure or unclean.

. the marks of true Rulers

1 Timothy 3:1-7

Qualifications for Overseers and Deacons

  Here is a trustworthy saying:  Whoever aspires to be an overseer  desires a noble task.   Now the overseer is to be above reproach,  faithful to his wife,  temperate,  self-controlled, respectable, hospitable,  able to teach,    not given to drunkenness,  not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome,  not a lover of money.    He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect.    (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)    He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited  and fall under the same judgment  as the devil.   He must also have a good reputation with outsiders,  so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.

. the duty of owning them

1 Thessalonians 5:12

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard  among you, who care for you in the Lord  and who admonish you.

God’s Word for God’s People

. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. - Proverbs 3:5-6

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. - Psalm 27:14

. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will. - Romans 12:2

. What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? - Romans 8:31
