When The Pastors Can’t Be Questioned | Truth or Loyalty? – EP144

When churches face leadership crises, are congregants taught how to respond with biblical accountability, or simply how to stay loyal to a man. In this episode, we examine recent events surrounding one of the most influential Oneness Pentecostal churches in America and ask what the Bible says about pastoral qualifications, accountability, and discernment. Whether you're processing questions in your own church or simply want to know what God's Word says, we hope this conversation points you back to Christ, not man.For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. - Galatians 1:10 ESVLast Week: ⁠The Tithe Trap | Who Gave Pastors a Claim on Your First 10%? – EP143Playlists:Full Podcast Playlist⁠ - YoutubeHoliness StandardsThe Church BuildingExamining PentecostalismThe “MOG” (Man of God)All About The MoneyAbuse In The PulpitAddressing NAYC CommentsFEAR!!!
