The responsibility of Christians in regards to economic developm.docxkathleen23456789
The responsibility of Christians in regards to economic development, leadership within the community, as a Christians God has given us all spiritual gifts and with these gifts, we are to use those gifts to provide leadership in our communities and to ensure economic growth as well. In addition to the spiritual gifts, we also have scripture to use as guidance to set an example for others and serve others as Jesus served others during his three years of ministry. The gifts that God gave us according to I Corinthians 12(NIV) are administration, discernment, faith, healing, knowledge, wisdom, miracles, prophecy, teaching, speaking in tongues, and the interpretation of the tongues. These gifts can and should be used within every community according to Proverbs 29:7 (NIV) The righteous care about justice for the poor but the wicked have no such concern. In disadvantage and non-disadvantage communities as a Christian, I have to ensure that any economic development plans will meet the needs of everyone within that community.
The gifts that God has blessed us with are to be used to help one another but also to be effective in our stewardship with others but also with our actions we are showing love for those in need as God has commanded us in scripture. I John 3:17-18 tells us that if we have material possessions and know that our brothers and sisters are in need but we show no love towards them how can the love of God be in us however we cannot love with words or speech but with actions and truth. Teaching members of the community how to be productive, prosperous but also showing God like love within the community benefits everyone and draws people closer to God.
Our leaders have a responsibility to coordinate each step of the local economic development process as well as the development strategy plan that requires fiscal resources, technical expertise, leadership, and imagination (Leigh and Blakely, 2017, p.439). God has shown us in Acts 20:35 (NIV) That everything he did, he showed us that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Therefore, leaders, the technical experts, and others involved must be available to assist in identifying and mobilizing all resources to carry out strategic planning by working hard. Furthermore, due to the decrease in public revenue, private funding of economic development has increased and economic development organizations due to pressure must track their performance to show what the return is to their investors (Leigh and Blakely, 2017, pp.439, 453).
Subsequently, as Christian leaders we have a responsibility to make a difference in our community as God have command us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. The Lord gave us commandments to follow and spiritual leaders to lead his flock therefore good governance is the protection of inalienable (meaning God-given) rights, life, liberty, and.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
