READ: 1 John 4:16-21
“And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” – Ecclesiastes 4:12
A son must become an allos because an army of multiplied force is created thereby.
The joint effort of people of the same kind produces greater results. The Bible teaches that two are better than one. It goes on to say that a threefold cord is not easily broken: Ecclesiastes 4:12.
Two of the same kind are better than one! Three of the same kind, are not easily broken. The multiplied strength of allos is phenomenal. When people of the same mind walk and work together, great power is released.
“How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight…” (Deuteronomy 32:30).
One of a kind shall put to flight a thousand but two of the same kind shall put to flight ten thousand.
A son must become an allos because that is the natural way to increase.
The natural way that all of creation multiplies is by producing another of the same kind: Genesis 1:12, 21, 25. The natural way that the church will grow from glory to glory is to produce pastors of the same kind, leaders of the same kind, and shepherds of the same kind. I do not dispute that there are other ways to move forward. But I can share what I see in the Bible. Allos! Allos! Allos! I want to be like the fathers God has given me. I want to be exactly like Him.
