Don't Perceive Your Pastor Or General Overseers Bigger Than God And Come To The Knowledge And Personal Relationship With The Lord Jesus Christ

There's nothing wrong with respecting your general overseers, pastors, and the leading servants of God in your CHURCH; but not to literally worship them. You can acknowledge them and work with them but remember not all of us have attained CHRIST. Hence the shame and harm such people have brought IT UPON the CHURCH and JESUS CHRIST.

Placing your priorities right will enable you to pray and seek the face of God for such failing servantsor workers. In the eyes of God they're not superior than the members or the FLOCK. Hence we are all children of God, except for the differences or talents/gifts or call the levelsof the ANOINTING GOD ALMIGHTY HAS GRANTED OR GIVEN TO EACH FOR SERVICES.

Ephesians 4:11‭-‬13 ESV
And He gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,

Let me chip in here to say two things; one such of what the HOLY BOOK says was given to the above were not for the privatisation of the CHURCH.

Secondly,their position is not to lord it over the LORD JESUS CHRIST CHURCH. Or alternatively even think we can call for the unity of the CHURCH through associations.

No! as you might have observed above it seems to me such can only be possible when we have UNION in JESUS CHRIST, His truth, SALVATION, RECOGNITION. At the moment the CHURCH is splintered or fragmented into 9 or so churches e.g. Ludacea,Philidafea,or simply put many segments and EACH has been TOLD BY THE HOLY SPIRIT through John in Revelation exactly what EACH has to do BEFORE they can BE RETURNED TO GOD.

Let me return to the core sharing ~~The verse 10 of this chapter says "He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things." Sometimes Christians mistakenly say the work of Christ ended on the Cross, as much as the work on the cross was very vital for our salvation, I believe His resurrection was the Climax. You see, without resurrecting Christ's death would have not had any significance, simply because many had died before Him but He's the only one who walked out of the grave by His own power. HALLELUJAH because He lives we can make it through HIM who empowers US.

So why do I say His resurrection is more profitable to us? Notice verse 11, as evidence of His perfect fulfillment of His father's will, Christ had the authority and sovereignty to assign spiritual gifts to those He called into service in His church, all these gifts (He gave) after His resurrection and ascension. These gift were given to the saints, (His disciples) to equip them for "building up the body of Christ". THE ONE CHURCH.

Scripture is for our spiritual edification, nurturing, and development in that, those who wrote it received their gifts directly from Jesus Christ Himself, today all we do is interpret and apply it to our life. Let JESUS CHRIST live it through one of us to become the CHURCH HIS BODY.

In verse 13 we read "until we all ( THAT ONE CHURCH) attain to the unity of the faith" the unity of the faith here refers to our coming to be one in the harmony of sound doctrine, interestingly, though the Bible does not contradict itself, false teachers and greedy men, have interpreted it in a way that eludes to so many disharmony.

Very importantly Paul adds "and of the knowledge of the Son of God" here he means that as Christ followers, what we need is a deep knowledge of Christ."the fullness of Christ" This we can only attain first of all, by prayer, careful study of Scripture, and obedience to Christ's commands. To mature and become more like Him.

What Scripture is saying here, is that God wants us to show the qualities of Christ, who is the standard for our spiritual maturity and perfection. I believe it is for this reason that, God has preserved His word for many years, yet rather unfortunately, people of today prefer to listen to fakes prophets and Pastors to Scripture.

The more you know Christ the better you will serve Him, to know Him is to set aside a little bit of your time every day to faithfully study His word and pray. I cannot over emphasize how important and beneficial this will be for you. Your Hope, Love, and Faith depends on how much knowledge you have of the Son of God.

Believers who are always crying in dispair, are those who lack a proper knowledge of the saviour who they claim to be their master, and provider. They see their situation bigger than God. Instead put all their TRUST in human beings and the EVIL system OF THE WORLD. BELIEVERS GOD IS THE ULTIMATE POWER AND FINAL JUDGE WHETHER WE BELIEVE OR WANTS IT. THIS WORLD OF ALL POLITICAL PERSUASIONS HAVE FAILED. COME TO GOD FOR SALVATION AND SECURITY FROM THE ROTTEN, SELFISH, WICKED, AND CHEATING WORLD.
