WHAT IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE LEADERSHIP PROBLEM IN CELESTIAL CHURCH OF CHRIST?
I have discovered that the root of the leadership crisis in the Celestial Church of Christ is a chronic and fundamental deficiency in the understanding and application of God’s word in scripture. We claim to belong to Christ in theory, but in practice, we have not paid careful attention to the teachings of Christ in the bible. Section 116 (B) of the 1980 CCC Constitution states that members are under the oath of allegiance to the total commitment to impart the teachings of Christ based on the Holy Bible. I noticed that we have not always looked for answers from scriptures in conflict resolutions neither have we obeyed simple instructions given by Prophet SBJ Oshoffa. Instead, we seem to be quick to rush to the courts before we even look at scriptures. The word of God is designed to teach us how to behave towards one another. The word of God in scripture must be treated as supreme. The word of God is God. In the beginning was the word, the word was with God and the word was God John 1:1. So how come our leaders are quick to rush to the court instead of clinging to the word.
