Uhmm... They've read it? And read it over and over? They've gone to seminary? They are anointed to preach? Etcetera..

Besides if not for people's laziness, we are not supposed to be dependent on Pastors the way we are. We all are supposed to know God for ourselves.

If people actually read their Bible's and didn't depend on Pastor's prayers and teachings things would be very different.

I have not said that people should not read the Bible but a pastor should know more about the Bible than the average person and to have a deeper understanding of the Bible it is not enough to just read it over and over again. You must know the context of each passage, the etymology of words, the audience a passage was directed at, the background of the writers and more.

True that... It's important to have a sound theological background, knowledge of the cultures, languages and so on associated with the scriptures..
