Re: Respect For The Ministry
WOW!
My Pastor just spoke about this on Sunday morning.
A point he made that I think often too many people forget is that our respect for our Pastors, Prophets, etc is not to be oriented towards the person, but towards the office itself.
"Do you have a man of God in your life? Really?"
The words and advice of my Pastor are not to be taken lightly, and not to be taken on the same level as my friends. It's called respect for the office and the offices that God has ordained are actually referred to as "gifts" from God.
We should "mark those who labor among us" and respect the office that they hold.
