Good morning!
There are some religions that call their leaders "father".
There are some religions that call their leaders "Pastor, or Rabbi"
There are some that call themselves "teacher, or instructor"
Matthew 23: 7 they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
8 “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10 Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. 11 The greatest among you will be your servant.
You may call me "your servant" and YHWH'S slave" (Slide defining YHWH and Yeshua)
I embarked on this study of the Bible because I had the nerve to cast a stone at those heathen false teacher Catholics for calling their Pastors "father". But in the exact same verses we are told not to call them instructors, or teachers or Rabbi's / Pastors"
So today I come to you as your slave or servant. If you don't believe me, come up to me after the service and ask me to fix your car or house and hold me to it. I may charge you, but I will still be your servant! Haha (for it is written do not muzzle the ox while he treads out the grain)
I also do NOT come to you as a prophet!
I come to you as a servant that has done a lot of research and want to share with you what I have learned from the Bible and hope you apply it to your life.
