A Closest with God

There are chapters with information that help you understand how you can have a closeness with God. This book should be read from the beginning to the end and mark references as you read. This is a book that will keep you searching.It answers questions that like how can I please God; how can I love my enemies. After reading this book, I advise everyone should read it, especially if they want a closer walk with God.

Very Important Subject for Today's Church

I read this book as a requirement for a job application for a Christian ministry and was not really sure what to expect.

I was pleasantly surprised by the book and really appreciated the insights given by the associate pastor who authored the book. I have grown up as "PK" or pastor's kid and have seen many rebellious and independent minded parishoners over the years wreak havoc in the church. They had an agenda and were going to pursue it no matter what leadership thought about it or what the church staff may have felt the leading of the Lord was for the congregation.

If you are not an associate pastor or other lay person on staff at a church you may have to think a little harder how this book applies to you as you read it but it is worth the extra effort. The idea of honoring the very responsibility laden position pastors have with support, prayer and loyalty is a lesson for all of us. If we laid our personal agendas down and instead offered loyal service to our pastors we can fully expect God to honor us and fulfill our purpose here on the earth.

I feel that many people out of fear believe that if they do not MAKE their ministry happen it will be lost but Jesus said we must lose our lives to find them. I think this is the essence of what Mr. Nance is saying an armorbearer must do.

I know there are some negative reactions against this book but I caution that the author clearly states that this book is written for church members working with Godly pastors who are in obedience to the Word and not people operating completely outside of the Word of God and truth. Matthew 18 clearly lays out a pattern for church discipline and I do not believe that Mr. Nance is preaching the idea of condoning sin.

The idea is to be loyal, supportive and willing to do spiritual battle for our leaders. Praying for them when they stumble and doing everything to restore them instead of tearing them down. Because after all, isn't this what we would wish for ourselves when we go through a tough time? How much more do our church leaders need this support!

It is a very short book and easy to read but really full of wisdom and encouragement. I definitely recommend it!

Protectors

These books are actually very insightful. The problem I ran into when teaching this course was that there are denominations that actually have the position of "Amorbearer" built into their structure. That makes it difficult for them to see the importance of this work.

This is coupled with the preface which leads you into the frame of reference that people are raised up to protect the pastor. Friends, look at the TITLE of the book; it reads GOD'S ARMORBEARER. If you'll recognize that God has chosen YOU and honored YOU to carry HIS armor (not the pastor's) this book takes on a whole different meaning. Does God need armor? Of course not, but it is HIS armor that we are to wear (Eph. 6:11-18) and in doing so become His armorbearers. The one thing that should be coupled with this teaching is that of putting others above yourself. Actually, I think it IS in there. Phil. 2:1-11 talks about taking on the mind of Christ, and in doing so, making ourselves lower than our brothers and sisters in Christ. Placing their needs above our own. When you put these 2 thoughts together you have one awesome message. One that must be met. It gets the children of God off the pews and into God's service. And as we enter His service we find ourselves sheltered under His wing...in that secret place.
