Answering the key questions about elders / [print] by John F. MacArthur, Jr. - Panorama City, California : Word of Grace Communications, (c)1984. - 3, 33 pages. ; 18 cm
Introduction -- Answering the key questions about elders -- 1: What is the proper understanding of the term elder? -- 2: How is the term elder used in reference to the church? -- 3: How is the elder related to the bishop and the pastor? -- 4: What is the role of an elder? -- 5: What are the qualifications of an elder? -- 6: How are elders to be ordained? -- 7: Are elders to be supported financially by the church? -- 8: Is the pastorate a team effort? -- 9: Does government by elders eliminate the role of a special leader? -- 10: What is the elders relation to the congregation?.
One of the distinctives of the ministry over the years at Grace Community Church has been an emphasis on the leadership of the elders. Grace Church has been uniquely blessed by the Lord with a group of consecrated men who through unyielding comitment to the will of God have provided strong and unified leadership to the body. I am convinced that their leadership, based on the biblical pattern, is a vital key to the blessing Grace Church has experienced in terms of growth and influence.
