Spoon-fed Christians: Many people look up to pastors as though - TopicsExpress



          

Spoon-fed Christians: Many people look up to pastors as though they are holier than anyone else. They try to act like them, talk like them, and even pray like them! But this is a very dangerous practice. If the pastor should fall, they are devastated and some lose their Christian experience all together! Keep in mind that pastors are human and make mistakes! We shouldn’t even take what they say as fact! After listening to sermons, the Bible tells us in 2 Tim 2:15, to go home and study the message for ourselves. However, too many people are spoon-fed Christians, willing to absorb whatever they are fed. But this kind of short cut will not lead to heaven! Making our church leaders into heroes, is not the answer. The truth is, we should ONLY keep our eyes on Jesus! He is our example! He is the ONLY one we should emulate! People, even our own pastors, will always fall short of perfection . . . because ONLY God is perfect – and He alone is worthy to be on a pedestal!
