The Preacher (Pastor) or the Liar

In this article we will look at the role of preachers to their community and the nation at large .

The word "pastor" derives from the Latin noun pastor which means "shepherd". Greek poimeniko of a shepherd meaning a leader. a protector.

A liar is one who simple tells untruth .
The Pastor has a role he must play within society and to members of his or her congregation.

In Ephesians 4:11 Paul identified the category of Shepherds and what they are supposed to do. Let take a look at the text. Ephesians 4:11-12 NKJV “And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,”

Take note: The Shepherds are to first of all equipped the society, believers. Secondly, they are to edify the society and their members.

The Shepherd has a duty to make sure that his sheeps are properly fed and protected from harm.

Jesus our Lord and master is an example of a Shepherd.

Jesus said in John 10:11 ““I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.”

‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
The Question to ask all readers is that are pastors giving their lives for their sheep’s ?

One of the problems we face today in our Christianity has to do with Pastors unconcerned about sheeps welfares. Rather their attentions are mostly on what I called untheological and unbiblical extorting. They lie to members to sow seeds and it will be multiple to them. Your giving to God does not multiply your money. What multiples your money is work. He that does not work should not eat. “For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.”

‭‭II Thessalonians‬ ‭3‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
NB: Giving in the Church does not bring additional money to you. What brings additional money to you is work.

Why do you work? Because God has blessed the planet. God said be fruitful.

The Apostles of the New Testament said let him who steal , steal no more but let him work with his hands.

Why do we give in church? We give because we are blessed. We don’t give to be blessed. It is part of the goodness of God that kept you healthy . It is part of the goodness of God that took you to work and brought you back.

There is no future for lazy Christians. Someone reading will ask does God perform financial miracles? Yes He does . He connects you to opportunities. Even when you see the opportunities you must do something . He connects you to ideas. He connects you to people who are ready to help.

The sowing of money has made the society and church members lazy. They believe that God will multiply their money so no need to work. God is not betway or sporty bet to be multiplying the monies of people

The preachers are to feed the society and members of churches with the accurate message of Christ. When a preacher turns away from his or her role and becomes a liar, the people in society turns to see God as a God of lies.

Let the Preachers be preachers and not lie. Thanks for reaching .
