The Profile of the Evangelical Magisterium

The Evangelical Magisterium where only the leaders have "real" knowledge and understanding because they went to seminary. They are our Betters. We're useful only for their paycheck and adulation.
They give lip-service to being tested b/c when you actually test them and find them wanting, you'll find yourself disciplined.
They are unteachable.
They lack love for the souls of the sheep, feeding them poisoned food as they smile and say it's in the name of the Lord, thinking we should be grateful for such rot.
They reject the priesthood of the believer, they grieve, even reject, the Spirit's work in the non-seminarian, not-rich donor sheep.
They commit the sin of partiality w/o repenting of it. What does Scripture say about partaking of the Lord's Table unworthily?
God's judgment begins in the house of God (1 Peter 4:17). He holds these men who by position & claim, think they're mature, to a higher account and HIS judgment is precise (James 3:1).
May the Lord bless His children with true, faithful churches, little as they will be. Such a thing is a fine thing, a haven for the soul who seeks the pure milk and meat of all of Scripture, where true unity is based on the true, absolute, and exclusive doctrines of Scripture. Pray for such a flock--the Lord is honored by that and I do believe He will answer your prayer. I know He did for me.

How did you find a faithful Biblical pastor who does church in obedience to God's Word and not using the world's methods? A Biblical church? Things seem so dismal and nothing in this area.

It was all of God. I had a friend who knew someone sound through Facebook actually, and our families connected. We started meeting for Bible studies and our church grew out of that. I know what you mean about the dismal number of sound churches. Please don't give up in looking for like-minded and like-faith believers to meet with. I believe that praying for a biblical church is a prayer that honors Christ the Lord and is one that He hears and will answer.
