1 | Rebuking using the pulpit. | Heb 13:17 | Rodheljon | 150256 | ||
Dear Brethren, Is it right for a pastor or a minister of God to rebuke just a few members (who happened to be leaders) in his Sunday sermon/teaching? I don't expect him to do it because prior to that we have personal talk and he never gave me a hint that he has something against me. Am a born again Christian from the Philippines. Thanks. ROD |

Rod, Doc is right: this Forum is not designed for or equipped to do personal counseling. Even if it were, it would need more information on the circumstances surrounding the case in question. For example, what gave rise to the pastor's rebuke -- is it a bona fide response to unbiblical teaching or behavior among the church's leaders, or is it more in the nature of a personal vendetta? (These are questions for your consideration and reflection; please do not answer them on this Forum!). In addition to the passage that Doc referenced for your study, please also refer to 2 Timothy 3:16 and 4:2. Is there a possiblity at least that your pastor was acting clearly in accord with his right and duty to obey as the shepherd of his flock what the Scriptures command him to do? (Again, a rhetorical question that you should not answer on this Forum). .... God be with you and bless you, your pastor and the church there in the Phillippines. Soli Deo gloria! --Hank | ||||||
