Article X  

Licensing and Ordaining

 

            Section I

 

Any member, who in the judgment of the Church gives evidence by his living, and aptness to teach that he is called of God to work of the ministry, shall be eligible for a license.  He shall have preached in the hearings of the Church, and having been examined by the deacons may upon their recommendation be licensed to preach the Gospel by the Church, provided 2/3 of the members present at any business meeting shall agree thereto.

 

            Section II

 

If the church decides by 2/3 vote of the members present at any regularly called business meeting that one of its mean possesses the Scriptural qualifications for full ordination, it shall call a council of ministers and brethren to examine the qualifications of the candidate.
