ICLC 2014 Day 2(Evening session) Pastor Lane Alabi Ethics & Etiquette Colossians 4:6 KJV [6] Let your speech be alwayS with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. There is a something about how you speak. Somethings cant come out of the cell leader. Your communication should make things better and improve things. No careless talk from a cell leader. Your attitude... There is an attitude that is becoming of a cell leader. Its an attitude of love, integrity, compassion. Galatians 5:22-23 KJV [22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, [23] Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. The character of the spirit will win all the time. And in every place. There is no culture that forbids kindness. You ought to owe no man, excerpt the debt of love. This includes not holding grudge. Each day the only thing you have to pay is love. You dont owe anybody vengeance. Romans 13:8 Humility is important and then integrity. Integrity has to do with virtue. Saying what you would do and doing what you said. Meaning what you say its what you will do. Let your words mean something to you. What you wouldnt do dont promise it. Its better not to say it than saying what you wont do. Seriousness... There must be some seriousness, about how we do what we do. Achiever - the cell leader is an achiever - a result producer. He is not given in to making excuses. He is a fruit producer. Its part of the ethics, norms, believes of being a cell leader. If you are a cell leader you will produce result. You must have than believe, that what ever comes your way in achieving results, you are bigger than the challenge. Part of the testimonies of your members should be having you as their cell leader. If they were not doing well, meeting you should change all that. A cell leader must have I can do mentality. A soul shouldnt stray away unless you let him go. A cell leader mustnt give any member to culture, whatever... It should matter to you as a cell leader, even if one member stops coming to your meeting. James 5:19-20 KJV [19] Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; [20] Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. From one soul that you brought back, you may not know how many others you have prevented from wandering away. A cell leader you are the barrier for your brethren wandering away. A cell leader is a cell leader all the time. You are always in office, not just on cell meeting day. You are always improving yourself as a cell leader. The books you read, the messages you listen to, improving week by week, investing in yourself. Invest in yourself so much that when people meet you they will not forget. Become more inspiring, the following week is the same, more and more inspiring. Conduct ion your cell meeting... How you prepare to make sure that the meetings are effective. Dont have ceremonial meetings, meetings that are not producing anything. The attitude and how you conduct the meeting should be affected by how you prepare for the meeting. As a cell leader you should be known for following instruction and the meeting should be conducted in time. Be time conscious.
