The Authority of Stewardship

The Authority of Stewardship

In His Presence: You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free (John 8:32 https://biblehub.com/parallel/john/8-32.htm).

How do you know if you are being a good steward? There is only one way to know—read God's Word. (Deuteronomy 8:3 https://biblehub.com/parallel/deuteronomy/8-3.htm).

Human ownership must be governed by God.  God gives instruction to protect us, and following His instruction provides His results.

When you first consider stewardship, you might think it has too many limitations. But let me assure you that the limitations of stewardship are always for the enjoyment of it. God doesn't give us commands to stifle our stewardship, but rather to expand it. We shouldn't think that God's ways are negative—we can't do this or that—because the negative exists to enhance the positive.

So many people think God's commands restrict their freedom. But freedom in the biblical sense never means just doing what you want. Freedom in the Bible is the power to do what you ought to do. How do we get that kind of freedom? Jesus told us the truth sets us free, and the absolute standard of truth is God's Word.

The authority of stewardship is none other than the Word of God.

But God condemned them long ago and their destruction is on the way.   Living Bible Ephesians 5:11-12 11 Take no part in the worthless pleasures of evil and darkness, but instead, rebuke and expose them. 12 It would be shameful even to mention here those pleasures of darkness that the ungodly do.
