Order in the Church

Thought: How can a born again, bible thumpin, tongue talking Christian be demon possessed and going to therapy instead of casting out the demon? Please show me in scripture where this is our inheritance. All I keep thinking of is “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Are we not recognizing demonic attack then engaging in warfare?

Gifts set in the body—first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, (gifts) of helps, (gifts of) governments. This gift threw me cuz I associate government with the worldly governments; you know like the state bureaucracy. So how is a government set in the church? When searching this out I found this writing “the organizational structure and system of authority within the church, detailing the roles, responsibilities, and how decisions are made. It encompasses how a church is governed and supervised, often focusing on the relationship between leaders and the congregation.” This reminds me of how God instructed Moses to build the tabernacle; everything was precise. I guess this has trinkled down to how the church today has by laws they follow, especially if the church is within a denomination.

I cannot argue with government being instituted within the church as long as the organizational structure and system is dictated by the Holy Spirit. This gift set in the church is one I never really thought about, how things are run in the “”background”. I always look at the pastor and the leadership do what they do each Sunday without looking deeper.
