"Pastors Resign All Over The Nation"
by Van Robison
Can anyone imagine massive resignations by pastors of churches, due to coming to the truth about the man-made "clergy/laity" system of churchianity? While it is true that pastors do resign, often due to burnout or other reasons, few celebrity pastors would ever willingly step down. Imagine waking up to newspaper headlines such as these:
Megachurch Pastors Quit--Finally See The Truth--Christ Is The Only Shepherd
Pastors Resign In Mass For Guilt Over Enforcing False Tithing
Church Denominations Fold After Seeing That Jesus Christ Is The Way, Truth And Life
Church Leaders Find Honest Employment In The Work Place And Stop Robbing Church Goers
Christians Meeting In Private Homes No Longer Believe In "Professional" Clergy
All Organized Church Groups Finally Confess That Jesus Christ Is The Only Master
Church Leaders Step Down From The Pulpits In Shame For False Teachings
Church Corporations Have Meltdown As Pastors Repent Of Churchianity
Millions Of Church Goers Stop Going To Church--Decide To Follow Christ Instead
Multi-Billion Dollar Churchianity Collapses--Christians Are Meeting In Homes For Free
Organized Churches No Longer Exist--Only True Christianity
Institutional Christianity A Historical Past--No More Clergy/Laity
Church Buildings All Sold--Church Attendance At Record Zero Members
Christian Television Ministries Cease To Exist--No More Partners
Christians Everywhere Wake Up To Fraud And Deceit In The Pulpits--Quit Church
Restoring Jesus Christ to His rightful place in the minds of professing Christians (both clergy and laity) is the truth that the whole world of churchianity needs to come to. To say that the world of churches is not significantly impacted by the secular world and society is to be blind and deaf. The following attributes that belong exclusively to Jesus Christ are not shared by the King of Glory, because there is only ONE GOD, and megachurch pastors and church leaders are not any of these:
Jesus Christ is the Living Waters of life.
Jesus Christ is the Bread of life.
Jesus Christ is the Manna from heaven.
Jesus Christ is the Light of the world.
Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd.
Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Jesus Christ is the Door (to salvation and eternal life).
Jesus Christ is the Vine (unless we are attached to the Vine, we can do nothing).
Jesus Christ is the Resurrection.
Jesus Christ is the only Master.
Jesus Christ is the Counselor (Isaiah 9:6).
Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
Jesus Christ is the Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6).
Jesus Christ is the Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6).
Jesus Christ is the Head of the Body.
Jesus Christ is the Rock of our salvation.
Jesus Christ is the Judge of all the earth.
Jesus Christ is the King Eternal.
Jesus Christ is the Great Shepherd of the sheep.
Jesus Christ is "I Am among you as He that serves" (Luke 22:27).
Jesus Christ is "I Am from above" and "I Am not of this world" (John 8:23).
Jesus Christ is "Before Abraham was, I AM" (John 8:58).
False focus upon pastors, churches, denominations, church buildings and many other man-made traditions are simply distractions away from the real Jesus Christ, placed upon a fictional and imaginary Christ of churchianity. The real Jesus Christ is not only all of the above attributes, but has innumerable other qualities that apply only to God and to no human being. Pastors who place themselves on pedestals before common believers are making idols of themselves. And Christians who place pastors on pedestals, as if they are infallible and inerrant, are also making idols of men.
There are NO REPLACEMENTS for Jesus Christ. He is One of a Kind, as the King of kings and Lord of lords.
All pastors on earth have no place on self exalted platforms, promoting themselves as lords over the flock of Jesus Christ. When "professional" clergy ignore the truth about the real Jesus Christ, because of the love of prestige, power and free flowing money, they are falsely representing the true Jesus Christ for a fictional Christ that does not exist. Christ is not Christ--through "pastors", but in spite of professional clergy and the world of churchianity.
If there was not one paid preacher on earth, Jesus Christ would still be Jesus Christ. If there was no such thing as organized churches, Jesus Christ would still be Jesus Christ, and Head of the Spiritual Body that is the only true "church."
Here is some real headline news: JESUS CHRIST IS ALIVE AND HE IS THE GREAT "I AM". The life of born-again, Holy Spirit filled followers of Jesus Christ was never meant to revolve around "pastors", but around Jesus Christ. Obsession with church pastors, church buildings and clergy customs and traditions, are foreign to the teachings of Christ.

George, I know of no pastors that proclaim they are in the place of Christ as head of the church, but many by there actions act as if they were. However there is one world wide mega church that actually has a man who claims the place of Jesus Chirst here on earth and claims to be infallible, can you guess which church that is?
