OK, Saints we're in the New Year. For some of you; the drama continues, but for others you've made a personal goal for the compromising to stop. We've all made resolutions year after year. Some have succeeded and some have not. I was in church last week and I heard a pastor make a statement that "This year the church will witness to more people". Well, on top of the fact that the church has been around for years on years and should already have effective plans set to witness; is it biblical for a church to set New Years Resolutions???
Now I've been taught that the Pastor is sent by God to lead the church. Now, the pastor gets his direction from the most high. So, I'm thinking it should not be anything that a Pastor do that is not ordered by Christ. Yeah, I know technical LOL, but really. If it was stated that GOD SAID the resolution for this year was A, B, C; OK thats coming from God. But; it wasn't said God said hmmmm. Which leads me to come up with a thought or more so, a QUESTION. Is the Pastor leading the church on his own or is he getting this from Christ?
It's a matter of trust also with me. If you trust your Pastor in his or her efforts to lead you then this wouldn't be a issue or will it. LOL I posed this same question to someone and they said that I'm inflicting confusion. I believe that despite trusting someone; there should still be a STANDARD set. The Bible even speak of building up a standard. For example; I have a friend who just so happens to be a Pastor. Nice guy but anointed to preach the Gospel. Only because I built a standard of what I expect from MY PASTOR; my friend can NOT pastor me. WHY in Detail?, Although, my friend, the Pastor, can preach to bring down angels; my friend is an adulteress. Don't get me wrong; I am blessed by the preaching and have no doubt that it is ordained by Christ but to put my life in his hands for life long leadership, I think not. If I didn't know that would be one thing but I know and not just me say NO but my soul says HELL NO LOL. In other words; I would be the one that would let him have it on Sunday morning. In front of the congregation because I wouldn't be able to sit and allow the people to be misguided.
These Churches have become so concerned with HAVING CHURCH, they are forgetting on how to APPLY THE CHURCH within lost souls. Just like the (pic above); a huge area of vegetation. Any and everything is underneath. Although, in a way beautiful; but also deadly. But if organized; we can build, we can plant, we can be fruitful. So what do you think leave a comment?? I'm only hard on Leaders of the Church because I'm fed up just like many of you. Church that's dead no more, Church that has no power no more, Church that has more mess and drama to follow than the word no more, Church that promote sin no more, Church MESS PERIOD NO MORE. WHAT cHA THANK!!??
