I think there might be people out there who would ask the question I posed in the title. I think it is simple.
We, as Christians, are supposed to take a strong interest in making sure we are learning the truth.
It seems sometimes the pastors out there after going to seminary or whatever they get a hyper inflated way of doing things. I am just a normal guy out here trying to live life as God sets me to do. I am just like everyone else. except, maybe, I might have spent a little more time learning. But I have not been to seminary all my learning has been in church, small groups or on my own. The only thing I got going for me here is God and my desire to serve him and know him more.
One of the big reasons for this concept is that I have heard men who are serving as or have the title of pastor, but they have decided that they know better than the God they are teaching about... or they just plain misinterpret the Bible.
I see people of all walks struggling everyday to understand God, and I see media and Hollywood portray God or Christians in a way that they were never supposed to be.
With little else to go on people assume that is what it really is all about and I want to be the small voice that speaks truth. I want, as does God, to reach all the people I can to teach them and help them make the decision to follow the Lord.
