  • Preparation for Water Baptism Pastor E
    Preparation for Water Baptism Pastor E. Keith Hassell 1. The Purpose Water baptism is the first step in obedience to Christ. In the New Testament, there were no “altar calls” as we know them today. The message was clear: “If you want to give your life to Jesus and follow Him, come to the water and be baptized!” There is no biblical pattern for salvation apart from baptism. Water baptism finds it’s meaning in spiritual symbolism. Water baptism by immersion is the first step of obedience to Christ but is also a public witness of our faith through identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. When we enter the baptismal waters, we enter in response to our need to be cleansed and saved from sin. It is in baptism that we make public confession of Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior and acknowledge our belief in the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 10:9-10). When we are immersed under the baptismal waters, we identify with the death and burial of the Lord Jesus Christ. In doing so, we also symbolize and submit to our own death and departure from our old life of sin. When we rise from the water, we identify with the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and demonstrate our commitment to walk in a newness of life in Christ apart from sin. ROMANS 6:4,5 (NKJV) Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life, For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection.

  • Organizational Structures of the Catholic Church GOVERNING LAWS
    Organizational Structures of the Catholic Church GOVERNING LAWS . Canon Law . Episcopal Directives . Diocesan Statutes and Norms •Diocesan statutes actually carry more legal weight than policy directives from . the Episcopal Conference . Parochial Norms and Rules CANON LAW . Applies to the worldwide Catholic church . Promulgated by the Holy See . Most recent major revision: 1983 . Large body of supporting information EPISCOPAL CONFERENCE NORMS . Norms are promulgated by Episcopal Conference and apply only in the Episcopal Conference area (the U.S.) . The Holy See reviews the norms to assure that they are not in conflict with Catholic doctrine and universal legislation . These norms may be a clarification or refinement of Canon law, but may not supercede Canon law . Diocesan Bishops have to follow norms only if they are considered “binding decrees” • Norms become binding when two-thirds of the Episcopal Conference vote for them and the norms are reviewed positively by the Holy See . Each Diocesan Bishop implements the norms in his own diocese; however, there is DIOCESAN STATUTES AND NORMS . Apply within the Diocese only . Promulgated and modified by the Bishop . Typically a further specification of Canon Law . May be different from one diocese to another PAROCHIAL NORMS AND RULES . Apply in the Parish . Issued by the Pastor . Pastoral Parish Council may be consulted, but approval is not required Note: On the parish level there is no ecclesiastical legislative authority (a Pastor cannot make church law) EXAMPLE: CANON LAW 522 . Canon Law 522 states that to promote stability, Pastors are to be appointed for an indefinite period of time unless the Episcopal Council decrees that the Bishop may appoint a pastor for a specified time .

  • St. Paul and Martin Luther: Paradigms of Shepherd-Leaders
    St. Paul and Martin Luther: Paradigms of Shepherd-Leaders Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary Symposium 2018 By Professor David Scharf The Bible tells us that he started over a dozen churches throughout the Mediterranean world. Most call him the greatest missionary of all time with little argument from anyone. His ministry inspired the writing of countless books on leadership, missionary activity, and Christian character. His namesake adorns thousands of churches around the world. His name, of course, is the apostle Paul. What a leader! Michael King, a Baptist pastor, took a trip in 1934 to Germany. There he learned about the life and work of a reformer, the likes of which the world has never since seen. This reformer had the courage to stand up against Pope and Emperor though his very life was in danger. He inspired millions down to this day to read the Word of God and draw truth from it alone. He gets credit for the existence of the concept of “denominations.” His name, of course, is Martin Luther. And in 1934, Michael King was so impressed with this man’s contribution to Christianity that he changed his own name to Martin Luther King. He also changed his five-year-old son’s name to Martin Luther King Jr.1 What a leader! But what makes a leader a leader? Take a glance at the Strengthsfinder list and you will see qualities like futuristic, achiever, activator, maximizer, strategic, and my personal favorite, woo. Does a leader need the right combination of strengths to be an effective leader? I suppose it doesn’t hurt, especially if you are interested in the way the world defines successful leadership.

    BAPTISM SERVICE PLANNING GUIDE Developed by SBC President J.D. Greear and The Summit Church, this guide provides a template resource to help pastors and worship leaders incorporate baptisms into a service or immediately following a worship service. Aspects of the planning process and elements of the service may need to be adjusted to fit the needs of a particular church. Find more Baptism Sunday resources including a series of coaching videos from Pastors J.D. Greear & Johnny Hunt at namb.net/baptism-sunday-resources 4 KEY ELEMENTS OF A BAPTISM SERVICE Prepare The decision to respond with a public profession of faith through baptism is a significant moment in the life of a new Christian, so we must plan ahead to care for them well as they take those steps. Preparing well to incorporate the baptism into a worship service eliminates potential distractions and provides a powerful testimony that encourages the congregation to praise God. Suggested Preparation Sequence: (Timeframes may be adjusted to fit service planning schedule) • 1-2 months prior: ❑ Decide on date to call for a response of baptism in service ❑ Order baptism supplies • 3-4 weeks prior: ❑ Decide at what point in the service the baptism(s) will happen. End of service? Between songs? After service - inside? ❑ Begin recruiting your volunteer team: ❑ Walkers: Responsible for receiving those coming forward, and getting them from auditorium to counseling area and back so that they do not have to walk alone. ❑ Baptism Counselors: Responsible for talking with the candidate to discern if they understand the gospel & are ready to be baptized.
