The church members who are counseled by a hired pastor

Asks the pastor to inquire of God whether their way on which they are going

will be prosperous or not (Judg. 18:5).

The pastor says to them, “Go in peace; your way which you are going has the Lord’s approval” (v. 6).

So they do what the pastor has said and they think that their way is prosperous

Because what they have seen a place is very good (v. 9), quiet and secure (v. 7),

And it’s a spacious place where there is no lack of anything that is on the earth (vv. 7, 10).

So the church members have conviction that God has given it into their hand (v. 10).

Isn’t this really a blind pastor guiding the blind people? (Mt. 15:14)
