Dear Leaders -
Just because you do God's work... does not give you the right to treat people poorly.
Just because you're a man of God... you don't have the right to make people feel inadequate and silly.
Just because you are a church leader... you do not have the right to make decisions and hurt people in the process. The church is not your free reign. It's the Lord's.
Just because you are a leader... you don't get have the right to take a teenager a side and belittle him and make him feel horrible because he forgot to take his hat off in the sanctuary. The Lord is glad that he is here helping shape young minds for Him.
Just because you are a leader... you don't just get to say what you want and act how you want all the while not caring about how others fee.
Just because you are a leader... you do not have the right to say whether my son will be dedicated because my son's sperm donor was not a Christ-follower.
Just because you are a leader... you don't have the right to pick your favorite group and make everyone else outcasts.
Just because you are a leader... you don't have the right to judge.
Just because you are a leader ... you don't have the right to say one thing and do the other.
Just because you are a leader ... you don't get the right to call other people out.
Dear leaders... I am aware that everyone is human and sins. However, you are not exempt of the teachings in God's word. You are still held to the same standards, if not higher than everyone else.
"Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly." - James 3:1
