Every election time sees old and
new faces o f men/women seeking to
establish them selves as leaders; some
have qualified as true leaders, while
others seek to dom inate other hu­
mans. D om inion was given to man
when he was created. Man is to sub­
due and dom inate the Earth, he is not
to dom inate other men. Dominate
earth; Birds of the air; fish of the sea;
cattle o f the fields; everything that
creeps over all the earth.
In order for man to dom inate
another hum an, he m ust first reduce
that hum an from being a man, for
man was not given dom inion over
G od’s creation, man. Hitler did it by
creating w hat he called a M aster Race,
Race, supposedly
supposedly pure;

thus
the Arian Race,
all others were im pure, im perfect,
less than men. Americans did it by
stealing African people and reducing
them to slave status, sub-hum an ani­
m als w ithout rights; all this in order
to dom inate them.
God is raising up a new crop of
leaders; Red, Yellow, Black, W hite,
w ho’sb eliefis“thatallm enare equal” .
You m ust understand who you are,
where you came from and what you
were born to do in order to be free
from the opinions o f others.
No leader is a bom leader. There
is a process one m ust go through
before he/she can lead. (Genesis, story
of Moses). Leaders must develop from
experience, the character o f leader­
ship. Character is not a gift. C harac­
ter com es from life pressures. C har­

is watching. Character (ie) fixed, pre­
dictable image (set, statue). Charac­
ter process: Molded, chiseled, ham ­
mered, born with greatness, but not
bom great. Leaders must be tem ­
pered; changed from immature to
mature. G od sends life to man and
tells life to beat him into my image.

live leaders until they dom inate them-
selves, until they obtain character
below their waists.
Do not confuse character with
gifts. Leadership is not a gift; qualify
for leadership; stop fighting against
G od’s chisel. If you would be a leader
you m ust have a vision for your life;
you m ust discover your personal pur-
just an immature, ineffective person
(Christian). Effective parents produce
effective parents. Jesus said “because
I go aw ay, you shall do greater thing
than 1 have done”. A fter the resurrec­
tion, Jesus said “all authority is in my
hands"; Matt 28 “You go and preach
the gospel, (I did it in Palestine), you
go into
the w orld”. True leaders do

not restrict your growth or retard your
vision. True leaders find joy when the
people who follow him/her, become
effective leaders themselves. A true
leader expects greater things than he
has done from his former followers.
