You are so right. Once a pastor told us not to follow other people that including pastors but to follow the word of God the bible and the ways of the holy Spirit. Indeed people be condemned for lack of knowledge
Indeed - if only we could all agree! But when we walk in truth and in the holy spirit we are guided right. We receive the spirit of discernment and thus know who is who.
What we all know now as the church is so different from the Church of Christ.
People using the pulpit for self gratification and as cows as opposed to glorifying God and serving Him in truth and in Spirit.
