Our Head is Christ Alone

Spread the love

Eph. 1:22 “And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church.”

Your head must be Christ alone. The Bible is clear on this. Not your pastor, nor your bishop, nor your minister. IT SHOULD BE CHRIST ALONE. Watchman Nee, one of the great teachers of the Word, has something thought-provoking to say to us about this:

“The Lord is the Head of the Body and not the Head of any organization; therefore, whenever we work for a society, a mission, or an institution, and not for the Body alone, we lose the headship of the Lord. It does not matter if I decrease and you increase; there will neither be jealousy on my part, nor pride on yours. Once we see that all the work and all its fruits are for the increase of the Body of Christ, then no man will be counted yours and no man mine; it will not matter then whether you are used or I. All carnal strife among the workers of God will be at an end once the Body is clearly seen as the principle of the work.”

Therefore a true Pastor of God is ordained by Christ alone. You don’t need any man, group nor any organization to ordain you.
