I thought all the points were very good. The only one I am a little hesitant about is number 8 and even then it all depends on how you interpret what he is saying.

Some excellent points stated very well. Great food for thought. Concerned about a pastor you know? Prayer is the greatest help there is.

i would add one more.

I am concerned with pastors who sacrifice doctrine for numbers.

too many of my friends are doing this. It makes me very sad.

Prayer and a stern rebuke. Remember, pastors are not above being corrected.

None of us are above correction. There is something that needs to be corrected, tuned, or removed in all of our lives, I believe. Prayer is definitely one of the keys that will help us see those things clearly, and then the spirit of the Lord will give us the overcoming power to rise above the hindrances in our lives.

There are many, many, many issues facing Christians as a whole today... and my personal thought is this... pride is at the center of each and every one of those issues.

In fact, pride was the one abomination mentioned again, and again, and again all throughout scripture as something the Lord hates. And it is pride, or self-love, or the belief that we can do no wrong, etc., that will cause a multitude of other things to show up in our lives that are symptoms of the underlying disease of "pride".
