Summary

In this episode Costi Hinn breaks down what every Christian should be able to expect from their pastors, and how a Christian should go about leaving a church that isn't being served by faithful leaders. If we're told to "submit to leaders" (Hebrews 13:17), we'd better make sure we're submitting to the right ones.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Further Gospel Podcast. My name is Kasi Hind and I have the pleasure of
0:14.1	being your host today. I'm flying solo as I answer a question that we have continued
0:19.5	to get on social media in direct messages on all our platforms and even via email with
0:24.6	the contact form that's on our website. And the question really is about pastors. What
0:29.9	kind of pastor should I be submitting to? Who should I be following? What is a pastor
0:35.6	going to look like that I can trust? This is a really important question. Our ministry
0:41.9	is all about providing sound doctrine for everyday people and I don't know about you,
0:46.4	but I'm an everyday kind of guy as well that thinks pretty simply. If the Bible says
0:53.6	in Hebrews 13, 17 very clearly easy for everybody to understand. Submit to those who are
1:01.4	over you in the Lord for they keep watch over your soul as ones who are going to give
1:06.0	an account. We're not to do that causing them a lot of grief. Then we better know who
1:13.6	we're supposed to submit to. The logical question that everybody should be asking when
1:19.1	we look at a passage like Hebrews 13, 17 is that if the Bible says I'm to submit to
1:24.0	leaders or if I'm a leader, I look at that and think the Bible says I'm going to give
1:28.0	an account for the way that I cared for people's soul. Well, I sure better know that that
1:35.7	individual or if I am a pastor, I sure better know that my life matches what the Bible
1:41.0	says a pastor is to do and who a pastor is to be. And so that's where we're at today.
1:49.2	The first thing that I want to point out is the seriousness of pastoral ministry. It's
1:53.2	not a flippant calling. It's not an easy way to just hang with people and get a paycheck.
1:58.2	It's not something you do because you want power. A lot of people would have made better
2:02.0	CEOs and better entrepreneurs than they ever would a pastor or a shepherd of the flock
2:07.0	of God. It's not something that we want to do so we can get on the soapbox and monologue
