I guess this is why its bugging me so much--I feel the same way.

Lord... I truly pray that you protect giving and selfless hearts from falling under any leadership that is so convinced of the hearts & souls of those who would give their praise unto your name.

Re: Music Devils
So... RKS, In your experience a devil spirit more often attaches himself to the music leader rather than the pastor?

As in my world as well.
And that came naturally because it was who they were as a person.

I did. It was pretty disturbing. But not for the reasons he intended it to be.

LOL...
What makes you think anyone is stirred up?
No sir I have not seen that article... I will have to look it up.
Good old Steve Shubert.
I grew up with Steve. I know him well.
Brother Marlow Shubert received the Holy Ghost in my home church and they attended there until Brother Shubert took the church in Zavalla.
Were these issues caused by his being a musician?
I guess I will have to read it.
Let me see if I can find it.

I have seen unpraying pastors become selfish and self centered and off the reservation....
They don't last very long.....

Unfortunately I have known a few who lasted FAR too long.
But... I don't call it a "pastor devil"
I realize that this issue has to do with that particular person and is not a propensity of others who happen to hold the same office.
