"DON'T ROCK THE BOAT" ,
?My advice to all standard bearers,
conncctional or independent
candidates for the bishopric lis, to
line up with the respective bishops
of those districts. *1 have the
first time tQ see a man elected to
the bishopric in my general Conference
experience of 20 years who
was fighting his presiding bishop.
I have seen some of the best brain
of the church, endorsed by districts
and fraternal orders failed because
they were not in harmony with
heads of theinv*districts. The
church believes that a map desir"a
"bishop fighter." -He-i*. disrespecting
the offiice to which he
aspires to be respected. He is dis
qualified for tha'^high and holy of--,
fiee for his lack of appreciation of
the Golden Rules. Again if an as.pirant
for the office sow rebellious
seeds, he must reap the same in
u~-; > the event that he is successful to
attain the position. Those who can
not control themselves will never
be able control othera. Bishop
"fighters" get no where. Thiskas,.
bteft my experience in the past
K
and the future will have to prove
otherwise. One thing certain, no
Christian can please every body,
no pastor can please every member
no presiding elder can please ,
every pastor, and no bishop can
