Nigerian pastors Need To Be Born Again Very, Very, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the spirit is spirit.Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again(John 3:1-7). Pastors are supposed to be the conscience of the society.They are supposed to be Gods representatives here on earth. Like Elisha in the Bible,they are supposed to warn the people about the dangers of disobeying God and guide them to the path of righteousness. They are supposed to lead by example. Today, some pastors are the problems of the society. The lifestyle of some pastors is contradictory to what they preach. It has got so bad that when a man introduces himself as a pastor, he attracts immediate suspicion. Scandals and controversies have eaten too deep into the church like an incurable cancer. Like electric poles, churches are springing up all over the country and their general overseers or CEOS are fast emerging as the richest men in the country. Some pastors represent their stomach instead of christ. Churches have been turned into banks and business centres with branch pastors given targets for increased turnover by headquarters. Most of these new breed churches only preach prosperity because preaching salvation will impact negatively on the churchs GDP. Some of todays pastors, after their failed attempts at finding means of livelihood, hire a classroom and start a church.I heard of how a kenyan pastor ordered all female members of his church to attend church services without bras and panties for christ to enter their lives. Pastors should be judge as well as their actions. This is a country where a pastor organises a healing crusade for his members but jet off to the united kingdom the next for medical check-up.
