Trust me bro... Not
Pastors are supposed to teach the whole counsel of God. But we should always remember that he is human like the rest of us. The Bible, not him, is the highest spiritual authority in the church.
If you think that being a pastor gives you a blanket authority to teach anything you want, you're greatly mistaken. John says to test all the spirits (for not all prophecies are from God), and this applies especially to pastors. If a Christian errs, he errs by himself. If a pastor errs, he took the church with him.
According to 1 Timothy 4, the pastor who pays attention to doctrine saves himself and his flock. The converse is true. A pastor who is careless with his study will also damn his flock.
So when a pastor teaches the Word of God, be sure to have an open Bible in front of you. This way you can check his accuracy; this is why even the unbelieving Bereans are called noble when they check Paul's teachings against the Scriptures.
When we listen to a pastor teach, we're not supposed to park our brains at the door and stop thinking for ourselves. We are supposed to listen well and think critically through the message. We're not to swallow everything without discernment.
Check out the Bible if what is being taught is true. The Bible, not the fallible human pastor (however careful he is), is our final authority in faith and practice and every topic the Bible touches.
Manatiling nakapokus sa biyaya. Huwag ninyong hayaang nakawin ng mga huwad na guro ang inyong karapatang mag-isip ng doktrina.
(Kung gusto ninyo ng karagdagang impormasyon, bisitahin ninyo kami. May pagtitipon kami sa Dahat, kada Linggo, kada 1:00-3:00 pm. Sana manampalataya kayo at kita-kita tayo.
Isang mahalagang paalala: ang mga blogs na ito ay personal kong opinyon at eksposisyon; hindi ito opisyal na pananaw ng Partido Christian Bible Church. Kung nais ninyong malaman ang kanilang opisyal na posisyun, magtanong kayo sa mga matanda ng simbahan. Ang Nieto Bible Page ay isang hiwalay na ministri mula sa PCBC at independiyente rito. Nakikipagtipon ako sa PCBC, pero may personal akong kumbiksiyon sa mga bagay. Bagama't miyembro (muli) ako ng teaching and ruling leadership ng PCBC, anumang mabasa ninyo rito ay hiwalay sa kanila. Anumang nasusulat ay aking pananagutan.
Kung nakatulong sa inyo ang mga blogs na ito, mangyaring pasubscribe at pashare sa iba. Ibahagi natin at ikalat ang mga Salita ni Cristo at ang libreng biyaya ng Diyos sa lahat ng dakong Filipino ay lenggwahe. Salamat po.)
