(1) The Problem: People’s Needs Were Not Being Met
• Prejudice is a sin• This was a legitimate need• Diversion is not good–Diversion of the apostles from their
called ministry–Diversion of the church from its ministry

OF THE CHURCH• Helping the needy is not the central
mission of the church (Acts 1:8; Mt 28:18-20; 2 Cor 5:17-21), though it was seen as a responsibility of the church (1 Tim 5:3-16; Gal 2:10)

Elders: 1 Tim 3:1-7; 5:17-22; Titus 1:5-9; Eph 4:11-16 p.815; 1 Peter 5:1-4
• Pray: James 5:14-15• Teach the Word: Jer 23:29; Isaiah 2:3;
55:10-13; Rom 1:16; 10:17-18; 1 Th 2:13; Heb 4:12-13; 1 Pe 1:23-25• Leadership

Deacons: Leaders in a Ministry 1 Tim 3:8-13
• They have authority• They are specially commissioned• They have high qualifications–Character–Full of the Spirit–Full of wisdom

Every Believer is a Minister: 1 Cor 12-14; Rom 12:3-8
• Passion answers the “where” question – where do I serve?• Gifting answers the “what” question
– what do I do when I serve?• There is a difference between
specific calling and general service
