- čas přidán 13. 03. 2013
- www.overcomersfellowship.com - The office of bishop is a sacred one. However today, the office is being filled by some who are charlatans, hungry for fame, and obsessed with control. Every year more and more people assume the role of bishop without having proper understanding of the term and function; and as a result, misconceptions and questionable ordination practices have surfaced within the church.
In this lesson, Samuel Genus will explain what a bishop is as well as the biblical qualifications required to hold such an office within the church.

Praise the Lord for this teaching..... My husband Bishop Clark is a Bishop appointed and anointed by God....
He fits every qualifications and was brought to his knees on more than one occasion by the Lord because he didn't want to be an elder in the church here in San Antonio but in obedience and because the Lord would not allow him to grow in any other way until he walked in His way, he moved into this leadership position as overseer...
The Lord gave him the title of Bishop but he has encountered so much discourse from so many Pastors who believe the Bishop title is over them, more anointed then them and so forth, holding a sad jealousy toward him thinking he wants to take control of their churches... NOT AT ALL... We would prefer not to head a particular church at all but that's not Gods way is it?
His greatest desire is to bring the truth of the Word to the part of town he was raised on where he left for lack of spiritual food 20 years ago with the promise to God that he would return one day and rightly divide the Word of Truth...
It had come to a place were the Bishop was questioning himself as to did he really hear from the Lord, was he actually anointed?
Yes, I have seen him change since the Lord did a work in his heart over the last 25 years... We sat under a powerful spiritual leader for those 20 years and our hearts minds and spiritual eyes have been opened for His the people in ways it would have never have been without the anointing.
Still, some knot headed misinformed men of God and lay persons had begun asking him, by what authority are you our bishop, we didn't anoint you?....
I am so very grateful that the Lord put it on my heart to look up the meaning of the Word Bishop again and He directed me to this lesson on the very subject being called to question, now I can show this lesson to the Bishop because although he knows the truth, he has been swimming among the crawdads who constantly questioned his education & calling to be Bishop, nipping at his confidence, not knowing the truth of the Word and I believe he had began to doubt himself for the lack of fellowship among some of the brothers....
Thank you Bishop, Gods richest blessing to you and yours,
Mrs. Clark,
Provebs 31 Wife & Daughter of the King

Praise the Lord I like your videos this is helping me with my ministry this is apostle Bishop Dr Charles stay blessed in Jesus name amen 🙏🙏
There is a whole lot more to know about the office of the bishop that was not mentioned in this video. But however a heavy Foundation has been laid through this message. Biblical scriptures were used to back this up. Much of the church is under educated and because of that they are easily fooled. Thank God for this word of Truth. May God continue uses man to reveal more of this secret office.
Thank God for this teaching, so clear, bless you
Great teaching. It is refreshing to hear the Word taught with clarity and truth. May God bless your ministry. The need for true ministers of the Word of God are needed among so many false prophets and wolves. To God be the glory.
Praise God!
To God be the glory 🙏 I always wanted to know the difference between Bishop , Elders and Pastors ..you did a great job explaining the qualifications ,
Everyone not ready to take on the responsibility.
The bible say Man examine self ...
Now ask your self ...are you ready

Emmanuel
I LOVE this, 🙏🏿
Very good teaching this the truth
according to the book of acts chapter one a apostle can be a bishop to and also a prophet can be a bishop to.a bishop is a elder,guardian,shephard,or supervisor.
I wish I would’ve saw this when it came out yrs ago . I enjoyed this a lot, I’m happy you cleared this up for me . A lot of pastors are in the wrong
But shepherd mean flock
🔥🔥🔥❤️
This is a great clear message . I do understand now. But I'm still not fully understand this. Can a bishop also be a prophet and a first Lady be a prophitist when she's married to the prophet? I see as lot of churches like this and I'm confused. I just need a clear understanding of this to rest my understanding.
No first lady in God Holy words. People put in and take out. 🙏🏿
Your right but carefully study tells us a bisho0 is consecrated not just ordained
These are administrative positions in the church. The calling is to preach/disciple. Elders, Pastors, and Bishops are administrative biblical man made positions to govern the church. Our calling only is to be disciples. God never calls a Bishop, it’s only a desire...
How did Eddie long get to be a Bishop
Bishop Earl Paulk made him one...SMH...You Do know who Earl Paulk is right? look him up...
We will be honored to receive your feedback. Consider leaving a comment.
Thank you very much for this teaching. I like the way it is rooted from original meaning of the words. In our church we are currently setting up a Bishop office. Now i am going to use notes from this video to make it happen within biblical teaching.
Can I get a hard copy of this teaching? I am From South Africa Durban.
Thanks so much for this lesson.certainly helped me understand something that i just believed catholic religiousity.Thanks Samuel.God Bless you.
I know this is old but, a bishop o r pastor or apostle are synonymous. The title of bishop is man/ European made. There is a 5 fold ministry and nothing but God is above an apostle. It pains me to see people of God desiring to have a man made title for which they're not called and can't accept the duties of a pastor. So sad.
What bible chapter and verse do you have that states a Bishop is a man made title/office.
Isn't the bible divinely inspired by God?
Bishop is a Pastor
I am sure by now it has been discovered that women can actually be bishops via the holy spirit
There is no gender in the kingdom. There are women Bishops and women Apostles. He created male and female. This sexism must stop👎
Thank you for this comment.
