Talk Jesus needs some new moderators and I am ready to add enough to create a full dozen: 12 apostles as in Scripture. I need 6 more moderators to fulfill this. Please read the below carefully.

To Qualify:
Reply with the following information (be clear and descriptive please)

- brief but clear detail of what you believe in, your personal statement of faith
- your physical location (Country / Timezone)
- your computer and Internet skills
- how often do you visit Talk Jesus?
- your views, motives and goals on Talk Jesus
- explain why you feel you should be a moderator
- your age

Basic Requirements:

• Computer skills
• Commitment (time)
• One year as a member (give or take a few months)
• At least 200 forum posts

Note

I ask God to guide me with His Holy Spirit in all my decisions. Do not feel offended if you are not chosen. Please do not ask me to make you a mod either. The sole decision comes from the Holy Spirit and I have my heart and ears open to GOD's guidance.

Most likely I will select those who have been a registered and active member for at least 2-3 months.

Keep This in Mind

Talk Jesus is a precious "rock", GOD's online church, ministry and awesome community for all to fellowship. You should and must ask GOD for guidance yourself as well to see if He finds you right for a moderator position. Please do not reply / pm me telling me that GOD has chosen you. I love GOD and so do you, but anyone can tell me GOD has said this and that to him or her. It really comes down to GOD speaking to me and telling me who is right to choose. GOD will confirm this directly to me in prayer.

This is a big responsiblity not a simple task. Say at least a quick, simple, humble and sincere prayer before entering Talk Jesus. Ask GOD in Jesus' name for wisdom, guidance and armour. You need patience in this position, wisdom, true devotion to GOD and to His online church here at Talk Jesus. If you feel even slightly not "100%" about this it is best to not reply and apply.

1 Corinthians 4:1-3
The Ministry of Apostles

This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy. But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

Moderator Statement of Commitment

A Moderator position is one of accountability and commitment. Being a Moderator for sake of status is not the Lords will, nor is it helpful to the plans at Talk Jesus. Moderators must take this responsibility as a servant, committed to the cause of Christ while in the same way being committed to the order set in place by the leader of Talk Jesus.

Ask yourself the following questions

1. Do I believe in God and Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior and am I ready to serve Him in his house of meeting.

2. Am I willing to continue in prayer for Gods will to be followed out in all areas of Talk Jesus, and maintain support for all Gods appointed leaders in prayer and deeds?

3. Am I ready to commit my time to moderating Talk Jesus as a service unto God.

4. Am I willing to accept all the guidelines set before me by the chosen leader at Talk Jesus knowing that his is not a self appointed position, but one established by God himself?

5. Will I be pure and Christ like in all my actions, to be completely devoted in this manner as Christ taught me?

6. Am I living a godly lifestyle, one not to be a stumbling block to fellow moderators and members in the body of Christ?

Rules and Standard for Moderating

Moderating this site is so members here will be allowed to openly share Jesus Christ without the threat of evil conduct interfering with the ability to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a free environment. The goal of appointing 12 Moderators to Talk Jesus is both biblical in its responsibility, but also needed in the daily task of this web site.

Jesus Christ appointed 12 Apostles to walk with and learn the truth of the gospel so the 12 could further the truth after he was finished his mission here on earth. But, when Jesus sent the Apostles out to minister, he sent them out two at a time , to pray and watch over each other in their service . When Jesus was here, the Apostles had all they needed. But Jesus also said that a day will come when they will need each other because he would go ahead and prepare a place for them in his Fathers house.

Mark 3:14
And he appointed twelve (whom he also named apostles) so that they might be with him and he might send them out to preach

The reason for 12 now is so we as part of the 12 can have Godly counsel, and also stand under accountability to each other before the Father in Heaven. This accountability includes equal parts in the task of Moderating Talk Jesus. As a Moderator , we all must put in the time needed to allow us all to have our times of rest and prayer /family / vacations /etc.

Moderation of Talk Jesus is a ministry! It should be treated as such! This is a 24/7 Christian fellowship. It also needs to be tended to 24/7 by at least 1 or 2 moderators at all times.

These are just some guidelines to follow so that all the Moderators will be fresh in their Spirits, and able to handle personal responsibilities.

Everything comes and goes in seasons, moderating is no different.

Ecclesiastes 3:1
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven

The commitment to be a moderator is a team commitment before God. We are one body, the church. We must become accountable to each other and equally responsible for serving God and Talk Jesus .

Thank you in advance for all of you at Talk Jesus

Your Brother in Christ,
Chad

I would be happy to join in on what God is doing here. However I do respect and fully appreciate one of the 'basic requirements' i.e., "Few months as a registered member" disqualifies me - and I would wish it no other way!

I am already feeling a Godly enthusiam for what God is doing here.

Yours in Jesus, David.

I have to agree with 4Jesus, I'd also love to be a part and be one of the moderators, remember us two in a couple of months time Chad :)

I am interested in becoming a part of TalkJesus Chad. How would you like me to comply with the descriptions you have requested? I donot have your email.

Bob Lehmann

Please reply to this thread with the details

My name is Bob Lehmann and I am a non-denominational minister, ordained through United Christian Fellowship ministry. I am currently working on my Masters Degree in ministry and retired from teaching in a technical college.

To Qualify:

- brief but clear detail of what you believe in, your personal statement of faith

I am a born again Christian and trained minister with a cause: Expanding God's Kingdom by becoming and developing wholehearted, fully-engaged followers of Jesus Christ.

I believe that the only true basis of Christian fellowship is His (agape) love which is greater than any differences we possess and without which we have no right to claim ourselves Christians. Thus, I am committed to loving unconditionally all whom the Holy Spirit would join in fellowship, accepting without bias or prejudice, and forgiving as Christ has forgiven us.

WHAT I BELIEVE

The Bible:
I believe the Bible, consisting of the 66 Books of the Old and New Testaments, to be the only inspired, inerrant, infallible, authoritative Word of God. (2nd Timothy 3:16-17).

The Trinity:
I believe that there is one God, eternally existent in Three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (John 14:26, 15:26).

The Lord Jesus Christ:
I believe in the deity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. (Acts 4:12).

Redemption:
I believe that for salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (1st Peter 1:18-19).

The Holy Spirit:
I believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by Whose indwelling power and fullness, the Christian is enabled to live a godly life in the present evil world. (Acts 2:38).

The Resurrection:
I believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation. (John 5:28-29).

Spiritual Unity:
I believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in Christ. (Ephesians 4:3).
