Pastors must rightly discern the words of truth.

 

 

Pastors must rightly discern the words of truth.

And we must teach that word correctly without being ashamed.

We should do our best to be workers approved by God

(2 Timothy 2:15).

 

 

 

What pastors should and should not preach.

 

 

We pastors should not preach ourselves,

but that Jesus Christ is Lord

and that we are servants of the saints for Jesus

(2 Corinthians 4:5).

 

 

 

I feel ashamed of my position as a pastor.

 

 

I feel ashamed of my position as a pastor

because I am criticized for being a stumbling block

that many pastors face

(Ref.: 2 Corinthians 6:3).

 

 

 

Pastors must be careful not to inconvenience

or become a burden to their congregation.

 

 

When the apostle Paul was with the saints in the church of Corinth,

he faced difficulties in his daily life but did not burden anyone.

This was because other churches provided for his needs and supported his expenses.

Therefore, to avoid being a burden to the saints in the church of Corinth,

the apostle Paul was careful and cautious in everything he did

(2 Corinthians 11:8-9).

Pastors receive the lesson that they should be careful and cautious

so as not to burden or trouble the saints in their care.

 

 

 

Pastor's joy

 

As pastors, even if we are weak,

we should rejoice when our believers become strong

(2 Corinthians 13:9).

 

 

Pastor's privilege

 

 

The privilege of a pastor

is to build up believers, not to tear them down

(2 Corinthians 13:10).
