1 | Pastors same as preachers?. | 1 Cor 14:40 | mouse2 | 43407 | ||
I notice the words "preacher" and "pastor" are used interchangeably. I can't find that in Scripture. I understand "preacher" to be synonymous with "evangelist". I understand "pastor" to be synonymous with, "bishop, elder, overseer". Eph 4:11 uses pastor separate and apart from evangelist or preacher. Note also: From beavertonchurchofchrist.net "Commonly Asked Questions" The title 'Pastor' applies to the same group of men referred to as elders or bishops (Acts 20:17,28; 1 Peter 5:1-3). 2. There was always a plurality of "pastors" in every congregation (Acts 14:23; 20:17; Phil. 1:1). 3. We never find a congregation which is be shepherded by just one pastor. We never find pastors overseeing more than one congregation (1 Peter 5:2). We never find 'youth' pastors or 'senior' pastors. And we never find women serving as pastors. The qualifications are specific and include the qualification of being a man, who is the husband of one wife, having children who are believers (1 Timothy 3:1-4; Titus 1:5-9). My hope is that this would add some clarity. |

2 | Pastors same as preachers?. | 1 Cor 14:40 | CDBJ | 43446 | ||
All believers are called on to be preachers. Romans 10:13-14 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? The word preacher in Romans is the Greek word kerusso, kay-roos'-so; of uncertain affinity; to herald (as a public crier), especially divine truth (the gospel) preach (-er), proclaim, publish. Some are ordained as such. 1 Tim. 2:7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity. 2 Tim. 1:11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. The word used here as well as in 2 Peter 2:5 is the Greek word kerux, kay'-roox; from Greek 2784 (kerusso); a herald, i.e. of divine truth (especially of the gospel) preacher. And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; The word pastor in Eph. 4:11 carries a little different connotation. Ephes. 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; The word pastors is poimen, poy-mane'; of uncertain affinity; a shepherd (literal or figurative) shepherd, pastor. You will notice the word (and), that ties pastors and teachers together. The word teacher is the word. didaskalos, did-as'-kal-os; from Greek 1321 (didasko); an instructor (genitive or special) doctor, master, teacher. This is from Strong's Hebrew and Greek Dictionary |
