This doesn't you have obey just anything the pastor or Elders say but obey the scriptures as your leadership in The Lord teach you the word.

Follow your leader as he/she follows Christ.

Realize he/she is not infallible like the Pope when he speaks ex kathedra.

I have done my reading and I am "persuaded" that the word Obey in these scriptures is not necessarily the correct translation of the word peithō. I have read the scriptures and used many of the other english words that are available to be used in place of obey and the scriptures actually make more sense.


Okay understand I am not against truth or obedience to the Word of God. I am NOT for man using these scriptures to get blind obedience out of people.
