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; pure; thus 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 acter is w hat com es forth when no one , h e A r ia n Call 288-0033 For Ad Information BY ISAACS 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. n i i e c u v c leaders ica u v iM never iv v v i become effec- Effective 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 — all ....... 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. Know your purpose for being bom; visualize your reason for being here on e a rth a n d g o ghh pose. Y o u m ust u sthaveadeepcravingto You have a deep craving to see something done at the expense of your life; you must have passion for your purpose. You must press to the mark o f a new calling.

Be wise, take a good look at those who would lead. Com pare their character with those who have been through the fires o f life; those who ----- have a healthy respect for all people, Do they qualify as leaders? Are they trust worthy? Are they C hrist-like in T rust.......teach God to your children, so that they know what God has done attitudes and deportm ent? Is their wort! to be taken as tnith? Arc they truly for you. Purpose o f leadership is to pro­ mature, visionaries with a puipose that up­ duce leaders, not to maintain follow ­ lifts and builds future leaders? These standards of character for lead- ers.
