1 | Pastor giving a wrong info | Luke 6:37 | Beja | 223229 | ||
00123, In addition to the wonderful advice of speaking to your Pastor, here is a ten step procedure for dealing with this situation! 1. Pray through Ephesians 4:9-16 over and over for you and your church. 2. Pray so much for this man that it would embaress you to tell anybody of it, then pray for him some more. Pray specifically that he would be an instrument of fulfilling the previous passage. 3. Pray over your own heart and make sure you are not twisting his words and that you are understanding him rightly. You would be surprised how your own heart can fool you. 4. Re-evaluate the situation after having prayed through it in this way. 5. Study hard to see to the root of his missunderstandings, or simply his general lack of knowledge in scripture and be able to demonstrate the problem with scripture. 6. Take your entire list you just made in step 5 and hold it up to God in prayer, searching it or your heart for any accusations, unbecoming attitudes, or lines of thought which you would not desire somebody to correct you with, and substitute something more loving, more gracious, more kind, and more in line with the gospel of Christ. 7. Pray more. 8. Correct your pastor in private. 9. Pray more. 10. Take your concerns to the church. Clearly I'm being a little playful with the "ten step" thing, but I hope the real counsel is evident. In Christ, Beja |
