Leadership in the New Testament (1): The Proper Leadership according to God’s Word

Of late, there has been a teaching circulating among saints and churches that misuses and perverts the matter of authority and deputy authorities. Some workers are promoting a hierarchical authority structure in which God is the authority, the co-workers are the deputy authorities under God, the elders of the churches are the delegated authorities under the co-workers, and the saints in the churches are under the elders. Is this teaching of hierarchical leadership a healthy teaching or a wind of teaching?

Site Introduction

Welcome to the Healthy Teaching website! The phrase healthy teaching is based on Paul’s writings towards the end of his ministry, at a time when the churches were in a trend of degradation, and many churches had turned away from him. During such a time, the divine Word, and in particular, the healthy teaching, was Paul’s antidote to deal with the apostasy and disorder in the church.

The healthy teaching is the content of God’s New Testament economy. Healthy implies two elements. On the positive side, there is the nourishing element (1 Tim. 4:6), which ministers life and is full of spiritual supply. On the negative side, there is a germ-killing element, which operates against spiritual problems and diseases. Our burden with our writings in this website is to present such a word, which would both nourish and inoculate for the spiritual health of the saints and churches.
