In light of the fact that many churches can’t find a pastor and many others have found the wrong kind of pastor, this article by Steve Camp should make us stop and think and weep and pray:
” I humbly ask – – where are the men of God who tremble at His Word; who preach it straightforwardly; who live it uncompromisingly; who walk circumspectly; who have a bold orthodoxy and a countenance clothed with humility; who worship in the Spirit of God, glory in Christ Jesus and place no confidence in the flesh; who pray with expectancy; who lead with servant-authority; who are strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus; who will not play politics with God and man; who are not swayed by the promise of financial gain; who will not be enticed by the temporal contingencies of men; who strive not for prominence, power, position, praise, or promotion; who do not consider their lives of any account as dear to themselves, so that they may finish their course and the ministry which they received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God?”
Are you weeping yet? Hopefully we will all pray that “the Lord of the harvest” will raise up men across this nation to preach the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ without compromise and without delay.
