A pastor is your Moses! Your intermediary between you and God. He answers for
your soul. He is to create rules, dictate how you should live your life, even drawing minute rules inside of the broad scriptural principles we have inherited. The Pastor will get a Word for you if you need one. The Pastor will be obedient for you -- you only need to be obedient to him. You should never question your pastor. Never hold him accountable. You should do what you are told. No questions asked (unless, of course, he's telling you to hurt someone, or to do something extremely unethical). The Pastor has the mantle, the authority and power of God, you should respect that, be fearful of that, to the point that any criticism of something your pastor says you should know you could be judged on the spot. The pastor is the head honcho of the priesthood, the business officers (CEO) and the only one who comes up with ideas.
That's the role of the pastor!
