Every religious organisation, or "church," has its own set of rules and dogma. Those are not God's rules, but man's. The pastor assumes the role of God. Pastor refers to his "church" as a kingdom of God. He decides who may be baptised, who may join his "kingdom," and who must be excommunicated. Pastors have worn out many dedicated believers.
Disobeying the pastor will result in excommunication. Pastor is concerned about revolt against him. He establishes "church" rules, much like a dictator. Pastor spies on everyone to ensure that people will follow him.
I've attended many worship services in many religious organisations and witnessed how pompous and proud those pastors are. They enjoy receiving compliments. Members describe them as "Jesus Christ is in heaven, but the leader is on earth." They elevate their pastors and leaders above God. Those leaders are the pastor-idols.
Paul wrote of the man of lawlessness, the son of destruction, in his letter to the Thessalonians:
No one should ever deceive you. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. 2 Thessalonians 2:13–4
Christ was sent by God and He pursues the will of God. Jesus humbled himself. The man of lawlessness opposes God, exalts himself above everyone, sits in God's temple, and proclaims himself to be God. Pastors are no exception.
I've observed leaders, pastors, and priests and witnessed firsthand how they resist God. Pastors take great care to ensure that followers adhere to their religious organisation's ideology and do not break from the norms established inside the organisation. The pastor also insists on holding the "church" service solely in his presence. The pastor forbids believers from gathering without his or his designate's presence.
The pastor exalts himself above other believers, insisting that he is the only minister and that the others are merely parishioners, or church members. In reality, the priesthood is bestowed upon all who believe in God and follow Christ. God did not separate believers into priests and churchgoers. God has given priesthood to everyone who followed Jesus.
You are God's temple. Christ must be the head over you. The pastor appears and assumes the role of judge among you. Although God did not give him this authority, the pastor excommunicates believers from the religious organisation and so-called God's kingdom. Only God has the authority to pass judgement on disciples of Christ. Christ did not dispatch leaders, pastors, or priests. Christ did not form pastoral offices. As can be seen, leaders, pastors, and priests behave similarly to the man of lawlessness. Pastors and the man of lawlessness about whom Paul wrote are both guided by the same spirit. Their actions are identical.
The pastor does not honour the God of his fathers, although Jesus does. The pastor is just concerned with collecting more money from you in order to build a temple, and he is unconcerned about the poor. When he assists the underprivileged, he does so in such a way that everyone notices and thanks him.
Christ cleansed the temple and drove everyone out, but the pastor defiles God's temple, which is you. The pastor expects you to seek "advice" and "blessings" from him rather than God's will. He defiles you in this way.
