Episode Description
This bible study centers on the authority of church elders, particularly in light of Titus 2:11-15. Elders are called to declare sound doctrine, encourage the faithful, and rebuke error with God-given authority, rooted in scripture and demonstrated through a life of integrity. This authority, however, can be abused, leading to spiritual manipulation and control, as seen historically and in modern contexts. The solution lies in a plurality of leadership, adherence to Sola Scriptura, and a focus on love, humility, and accountability. The goal is to build up the church through sound doctrine and loving discipline, always pointing people to Christ.
