GENERAL SUBJECT
Basic Lessons on Service
With much anticipation, we will begin a new series of LDTF starting on 2 Mar 2025.
🏷 OVERALL BURDEN
The overall burden for LDTF is to carry out the following:
1. To stir up the appetite and atmosphere of pursuing the ministry, especially the "classic" ministry books that are foundational to our taking the way of the church life intrinsically.
2. To produce an experiential impression of the truth in the saints and impact them to seek the Lord to apply the truth in their daily living.
3. To release and apply the present burden of the ministry in the Lord's recovery as much as possible in order for all to give heed to the Spirit's speaking to the churches.
4. To carry out the above burdens in a spirit and atmosphere of prayer, outside the realm of religious routine and perfunctory function.
WEEK ONE TOPIC:
How to Meet
"We need to teach people that when we use the term service, we are not referring to the so-called Sunday morning service in the denominations. Not only has Christianity spoiled the word service, but even among us this word has been spoiled to some extent. When we use the word service, we may think of our service groups in the church life or the service office. Actually, in the New Testament the Greek word for service really means ministry. To minister is to serve people with something.
The first thing we have to help the saints with concerning the service is how to meet. I do not think that many Christians would consider that to meet is to serve. Meeting is a ministry. Meeting is a service. Immediately after we are saved, the first service we have to render to God is to meet. If you have not come together with the saints to meet, you have never begun your ministry. The first time you attended the church meeting was the beginning of your service. ( Basic Lessons On Service, ch. 1)
🧡 All are welcome to join! We encourage joining in person as much as possible.
