owners-but hired by God. We understand we must look to Jesus who bought us with His precious blood on the cross.
According to Jude, those who separate themselves are fruitless trees, on whom God will execute judgement. If we
offend the church it would be better for us to have a mill stone tied to our neck and be cast into the sea (Mark 9:42).
During the time we did not understand this ministry, we fed many people non-edifying words that destroyed
many. We faced much suffering, many hardships, lost our
saints, saw our work burnt by fire, and remained fruitless. We thank God for His abundant mercy that has restored to
us peace and rest for our conscience instead of vengeance for the destruction we caused.
Preacher means servant, not property owner. The
shepherd must feed and protect the sheep and he wil receive his wages at the appointed time by his Employer. If he
ignores his responsibility, fails to feed the sheep, or sells them or exposes them to wild beasts; he will be accused of
spoiling God's property instead of receiving wages.
Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the Word of the Lord; As I live, saith the Lord God, surely because try flock
became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my
shepherds search for ny flock, hit the shepherds fed themselves, andfed not my flock., thus saith the Lord God; Behold I am against the shepherds; and I will require try
flock at their hand, and cause them to cease fromfeet^ng the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves caymore, for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they mcy
not be meat for them (Ezekiel 35:7,8,10).
We feel sad for the unfaithful pastors who lost their flocks and their works are burned with fire.
