I know that many people like going to church and learning from a pastor and that's great, but the main amount of our learning should be done as we read our Bibles and spend time with God on our own. Things are backwards these days - Jesus is supposed to come first, not the church or the pastor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059223329672132754.post-39791963587940435682008-09-09T04:14:00.000-07:002008-09-09T04:14:00.000-07:00Great post.You know, this whole thing isn't new.

The most recent version of pastoral covering teaching is very similar, with a few twists to make it more updated and less obvious to its victims.<BR/>Sadly, I don't think these pastors "forgot" that we have the Holy Spirit. I think they're purposefully and willfully controlling and manipulating people. Any time a person wants to control another, it's devilish.Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217750221832578923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059223329672132754.post-91557117437204953492008-09-08T20:38:00.000-07:002008-09-08T20:38:00.000-07:00I guess these men had a personal relationship with...I guess these men had a personal relationship with their Heavenly Father instead of one by proxy through some "mere man." Since I have left that controlling church I now have a fresh new relationship with my Heavenly Father. So good!<BR/><BR/>Great insight in your blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
