Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; (1 Peter 5:2)

 

What is the most important mission of the elder who receive good news in trust? Before thinking about it, we must recognize that many changed bibles are attempting to hide away this fundamental issue because today’s pastors carry out many things regardless of the will of God through change of this phrase. Then, what is the most important mission of the elder, that is, pastor? The Bible says it is to feed the flock of God.

 

If one who received good news in trust doesn’t teach Christian saints as he should, he is not the elder. We have to pay attention that saint was expressed as flock. It shows how the elders feed the flock of God. As we know, sheep chew the cud; they, in advance, put food into their body, take out the food from the stomach, and digest it. If so, how do the saints understand the words of God? They also can meditate on the words, and use it in their life at every moment. Based on these facts, gospel preachers should make an effort for teaching saints as possible.

 

Changed bibles record ‘be shepherds’ instead of ‘feed’. It is a serious, because it can bring about an act of menacing the position of Jesus. The real leader of flock is only one, Jesus Christ, and preachers like the elder are who supply proper food as a servant.

 

Have you ever seen some people who put pastor or the elder in the same position with the Lord? This is a common, and was influenced by changed bibles. Alien religion has mobilized all means and ways for maximizing the influencing power of the leaders. These influence got in Christian churches, changed bibles which was one and only authority from the early churches, and made people receive the leader’s words more powerfully than the Bible.

 

For Christian, the sole authority and the standard of faith is the Bible, the words of God. They must grow up with these words, and guard against things getting out of that. Based on these facts, the elders have to convey the words of God with loyalty.
