Re: Is this biblical??
This isnt just a Pentecostal phenomena. There are pastors in every denomination who usurp more authority than is rightfully theirs. No, pastors arent on the same level, because they have a higher responsibility, and with responsibility comes authority and vice-versa. I cannot speak to the details of your situation, nor can I judge whether your pastor is, indeed, controlling or if it's a matter of perspective. All I can tell you is not all Pentecostal pastors are this way, nor is Pentecost the only sect where it can be found.
I would suggest you take their advice on one point. Pray through soon and often and ask God to lead you to a place where you can reach you highest potential in Him.
