Ordination of Danish Thomas as elder in CFC Bangalore
Summary
The speaker outlines three key responsibilities for an elder: first, maintaining the attitude of a servant, like Jesus washing feet, meaning one must serve without expecting salary, honor, or comfort. Second, when addressing the faults of God's people, one must do so with compassion, remembering that God desires all to repent. Third, elders must learn from the failures of others, recognizing that pride is the root cause of many spiritual falls, even for those who were once dedicated disciples.

The speaker warns elders against the danger of pride and seeking personal honor, using Jeremiah's warning to Baruk as an example. He emphasizes that the greatest danger in Christian life is pride, and true service requires constantly seeking to be more like Christ, regardless of one's status. Furthermore, he stresses the vital need for current elders to train younger members, warning that failing to do so renders their accomplishments merely 'window dressing.'
