The Fear of God in a Church Pastor -
How should the fear of God affect pastors? In this video, Jason Dohm explains that pastors have many opportunities to fear or be anxious about a variety of church issues. The job of a pastor is to faithfully bring the Word of God to their congregation – however, their congregation does not always interpret his words and actions in a positive light. Despite their worries that their congregation might react in a negative way, pastors should fear God and not their congregation. The success of their church is in the hands of Christ. If they labor faithfully and speak as He has called them to, they can have peace, knowing that they are pleasing God. 1 Peter 5:2-5 (NKJV) – “Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock; and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.”
