In search of leadership 2
There are 4 basic principles when choosing leaders. The first principle is CHARACTER. There are 7 characteristics that describe character. Now why is character important? Character describes a person's behavior, it is their moral constitution. It bothers me when I hear someone say what difference does it make about a persons character as long as he can lead. Friends, I call that stinkin thinkin! That would be like asking a skilled surgeon to perform a surgery on you but failed to scrub up before he performed the surgery? He might be a skilled surgeon but he will contaminate whatever he touches. So is an ungodly man a man without character will contaminate all the he touches.
Characteristic #1 He needs to be a godly and righteous man. Psalm 148:11-13. See, God says's to every earthly ruler/leader he is to worship God. Read Proverbs 16:12... The throne is established by righteousness anything else is ungodly. he may carry around a big black Bible, he may show up to church, but if he is unrighteous, ungodly he is unfit for leadership.
