Gillionville Church

The church is a gift that God has given us for our good and our growth in him. And the church is not chaotic, but God has appointed some to be stewards and leaders and shepherds, overseers, and provide presiders over these local congregations for the good of the church. And Paul is simply saying again and again, look, we know that we're hardwired for rebellious attitude, and we can be distrusting of leadership, and we can have issues and problems. And, hey, don't forget. This is God's plan and God's design for local churches, and it's for their good, and the church is for your good.
