"We hold these truths to be self-evident..." US Declaration of Independence
Here are a few things that I find ought to be self evident in our Fellowship.
1.New converts are the life blood of any church. They add a dimension to our Fellowship that we desperately need. Without a stream of new converts we find ourselves just hanging on.
2. New converts and our youth are the keys to revival. Grandma and grandpa will pray and give and support the vision. But it is young people who see visions, not old people.
3. We always need to be reminded to only run with the runners. There are those on the cutting edge who need a challenge and an example. There are those who stay by the stuff. Remember that 80% of the work is always done by 20% of the people.
4. Everyone is valuable. Some for what they do now. Some for what they used to do back then.
5. Pastors never retire. Unless they are forced out by infirmity. Many ought to retire, but no one will.
Do these thing seem self-evident to you?
