your comments disturb me on a few levels

who choose your pastor or pastors for you that you have so little respect for them?

who was it in the church besides the apostles who obviously did not live past the second century and could not be everywhere who led the flock, determined what was in fact sound and what was not. please remember that not all and every christian has this spirit given gift or we would not need them

you seem to make a distinction between elder, pastor etc. in scripture there is none. Acts 20 clearly shows paul calling the elders from Ephesus and telling them to be on guard, shepherd and oversee (verse 28) its all the same office.

I would suggest that if you have false shepherds you dumpm them now and not just ignore them.


Brother John
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16)
