I humbly submit this to
the most important men in the world today – Pastors! In 1 Peter 5: 2, 3 there are three clear commands to the
Pastor.
-
“Feed the flock of
God”. Feeding the sheep will create in them a hunger for the Word. The result
will be healthy sheep who will follow.
-
“Taking the
oversight”. Some Pastors would rather
be led than to risk leading. That
prevents the Spirit of God from leading the church where Christ would have it
to go. It will invariably be led into
wrong paths.
-
“Neither as being
lords over Gods’ heritage”. Some
Pastors bully the sheep, grieving the Spirit of Christ. Christ may have attacked false religious
leaders, but He never bullied the sheep.
“Being ensamples” or being Christ-like. Pastor, I hope we are still friends! Rejoice in verse 4.
