In the third epistle of John, we read about a man called Diotrephes who opposed the Apostle John and made his life very difficult in the church. Sadly, there are many Diotrephes in the churches today, in the Christian world of YouTube, in evangelism, and in ministry.
So here are three red flags you should watch out for, in case the minister you are under is not acting like a servant.
Please do not misunderstand me. As I say in this video, I believe many pastors and ministers are doing a wonderful work that often goes unnoticed, and we want to praise and lift these up. This video is not intended to cause trouble for those who are doing a hard work. Sadly, on the other side, many church members will look for any excuse to criticise their pastor as a reason not to go to church or not to listen to good, solid preaching.
So please listen carefully, test everything by the Word, and thank you for your time.
This video is presented and preached by Joe Kirby from Off The Kirb Ministries and the The Cup Of Joe podcast.
