Talk Jesus is open for some new moderator positions. I am looking to add a few new moderators to fulfill a total of 12 moderators total. Right now we have 8.
Please read the below carefully.
To Qualify:
Reply with the following information (be clear and descriptive please)
- brief but clear detail of your personal statement of faith
- your physical location (Country / Timezone)
- your Internet technical 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:
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.
Me and the current moderators will go into prayer about this prior to any decisions, and you are expected of course to submit to GOD's will in prayer too.
Keep This in Mind
Talk Jesus is a precious "rock"
This ministry is 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 candidate to choose. GOD will confirm this directly to me in prayer.
This is a Big Responsibility
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. Moderator position requires full understanding of respect, rebuke, correction and humility among everyone else. We are all equal, each to their own GOD given position and job in the body of Christ.
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
Moderating
Purpose of moderating 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 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
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.
Please understand if you do not meet the complete requirements as stated in this post, I will simply ignore your request to apply as a moderator. The responsibilities and rules are stated very clear. No exceptions.
Thank you in advance for all of you at Talk Jesus
Your Brother in Christ,

Ask yourself the following questions
- Am I a true Christian who not only believes, but is a repentant follower of Christ?
- 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?
- Am I ready to commit my time to moderating Talk Jesus as a service unto God?
- 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?
- Will I be pure and Christ like in all my actions, to be completely devoted in this manner as Christ taught me?
- Am I living a godly lifestyle, one not to be a stumbling block to fellow moderators and members in the body of Christ?
