petengine:A prophet can judge kings or a whole nation . It’s his office . Jeremiah 1:10 (KJV) 10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. |

joefelin2345:That is why it is Safe for you to leave them alone. Leave all judgement for God 1 Corinthians 4:5 (KJV) 5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God. |

petra1:No human is above discipline and correction. Insults no. Rebuke and reprimand/discipline, YES! (Compare Hebrews12:5-9 ). "Touch not my anointed" has been twisted out of context for selfish,self serving interests. "And Do my profits no harm" ![]() Proverbs 10:17 "Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray." Proverbs 12:1 "Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid." The Bible truth is that David was speaking against commiting murder of King Saul. Did Prophet Nathan not rebuke David, Yahweh's anointed king , for adultery & murder? Did Paul not rebuke/discipline Peter for strawing away from the gospel of Jesus Christ?

petra1:If your spiritual leader tells you to kill your mother that she is a witch. Will you obey? |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 7:08pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
Janosky:Sure . It depends on who has jurisdiction . You can only do it to someone under you not above you Insults no.Nice Rebuke and reprimand/discipline, YES!If you have authority over that person sure ! " Touch not my anointed" has been twisted out of context for selfish,self serving interests.Sacarcim is unnecessary The Bible truth is that David was speaking against commiting murder of King Saul.Nathan Was prophet , Prophets can judge kings , prophet make and unmake kings. It’s their jurisdiction Did Paul not rebuke/discipline Peter for strawing away from the gospel of Jesus Christ?It was his jurisdiction . It was his church . If a man misbehave. In my house I can correct him |

Timi141:If the Bible says so that settles the matter except you’re not a christian . James 1:22 (KJV) 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. |

maasoap:You’re not the first . So they said of Jesus . John 7:12 (NLT) 12 There was a lot of grumbling about him among the crowds. Some argued, “He’s a good man,” but others said, “He’s nothing but a fraud who deceives the people.” |

ziondaughter247:You’re wrong ! There’s a process to deal with a matter . Did you Go to him , what was his response ? Who Did You report him to? God’s kingdom has discipline . |

Jeezuzpick:We all have equal salvation . But there are lines of authority in Gods kingdom . Some of you new breeds don’t study the Bible but you follow social media culture Hebrews 13:17 (NLT) 17 Obey your spiritual leaders, and do what they say. Their work is to watch over your souls, and they are accountable to God. Give them reason to do this with joy and not with sorrow. That would certainly not be for your benefit. 1 Corinthians 12:28 (KJV) 28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. |

RTSC:You’re Wrong Read your Bible 1 Peter 2:18 (BBE) 18 Servants, take orders from your masters with all respect; not only if they are good and gentle, but even if they are bad-humoured. |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by Janosky: 7:42pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
petra1:Bros, thanks. 1 Timothy 5:20 "Those who sin should be reprimanded in front of the whole church; this will serve as a strong warning to others" Are Pastors liable to discipline and reprimand before the Church members ? What's your take? |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 7:56pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
Mordecai:The body of christ has structure and a culture from the Bible . We follow the Bible . Exodus 22:28As long as it’s within their human right and constitution The recent CAMA law is a good case in question. They should thus open their own doors and windows to correction.But by who ? You can air your opinion or present your case scripturally to your pastor privately if you have issues . Correction is Extreme language They should not tolerate insults though.Did Oyedepo complain ? Take what the Bible says period . It’s against scripture For A christian to insult men of God On another note, these churches are products of a rebellion by Martin Luther against the church leadership. Just saying...He presented his Theses . He wasn’t insulting anybody |

petra1:You are quick to assume I'm a "new breed". I was born again 31 years ago. Now, back to the issue. A spiritual leader is not to be envied, because it's a very tough position in which to find oneself. Leaders should be sober, grave people who weigh every word before they say it because their followers will hold on to them. Personally, I try to live "by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord" and I can easily find those by myself in the Bible. Like the Bereans, I weigh what these men say, and, I must admit, on many occasions, I find they stretch the Word a bit. The key word is "let brotherly love continue". What we have now are men claiming to be "fathers" to other children of God, and claiming infallibility under the "touch not my anointed' thing. Well, we are all anointed, all of us are "touch not", I stand by those words. Some are Apostles, some Prophets, some are teachers , etc, but God appoints all and anoints all to function in His house. A young man can be sitting in some congregation while on holidays and yet be the president of a fellowship on campus that is even larger than his home Church. Does he not need to be anointed for the task? For the purpose of function, yeah, some lead, but by structure, the Church is made of brethren, not "Daddies" and "children". Don't think of it as an office with a boss and subordinates, where the boss takes credit or criticism for the success and failure of all. Rather think of it in the image of a football team, where there's a captain and assistant, but all play their part and are true friends, jubilating together when they succeed and learning together when they fail. |

| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 8:04pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
Jeezuzpick:The scriptures I quoted explains my stand with Gods word . There is no place in the Bible either old and New Testament which support Christians insulting their pastors . Jude 1:8 (KJV) 8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities. |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 8:07pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
loswhite:Be specific what did they say. Dealing with doctrinal difference By ministers is allowed . But it is different from Christians insulting Men of God |

Janosky:It depends . A junior Pastor can reprimand a senior Pastor openly . Everything depends on the gravity of the offense . It could be privately , or could be among Pastors and it can be before congregation Sometimes private matters are dealt with privately and public matters are dealt with publicly |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by Jeezuzpick(m): 8:15pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
petra1:Oh, pastors will give account of their stewardship, if I were one (I have refused to become one on a few occasions because I know I haven't been called, at least, yet), I will prefer to listen to criticisms of men here on this side of eternity and adjust myself than get before God when it is too late! Those guys who will shout before Christ about how they cast out demons and healed the sick in His name yet He tells them to depart from Him, who do you think they might mostly be? Members of congregation, or pastors? May God help our men of God, o......it's not easy, especially when men and women begin bowing and kneeling before them, calling them"Daddy" (father) when none other than Jesus Himself said "call no one father" Mat 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Like I said, may God help our pastors. It's not easy. |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 8:17pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
Mordecai:Nobody is against debate , criticism . Oyedepo did not complain . But we have to point out the error of the new generation of Christians . The Bible is our guide |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 8:19pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
aswani:Does the Bible give permission for Christians to insult Gods ministers |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by Janosky: 8:21pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
petra1:Thanks, for the reply. The bottom line: Nobody is above correction and reprimand. The Church should discipline the senior pastor who steps out of line (unrepentant indulgence in sins). Except na him business center. Who gave me right to challenge a man running his business center as he likes? ![]() |

donnie:Galatians 3:28 (KJV) 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Secondly the Jews are in blindness till the times of the gentiles is over Romans 11:25 blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by Jeezuzpick(m): 8:25pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
petra1:We should do all rebuke in love, and elders should not provoke young men to anger. The Bible says that, too, you know. The Bible also said since the same fountain cannot produce both sweet water and bitter, the same mouth should not bless and curse. James 3:9-11 9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. 11 Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? Yet these men regularly place curses on people, and we rejoice that they are doing so. I'm sure you are aware that some of these pastors have cursed even some pastors serving under them among other people they have cursed? Let us strive to be more and more like Christ Jesus who never cursed anyone nor reviled anyone. Good job those guys did, by the way, calling Freeze a bastard. Nice way to win people for Christ. |
| Re: Touch Not My Anointed by petra1(op): 8:34pm On Sep 13, 2020 |
Janosky:Yes of course . It depends on who has the authority to do the correction by scriptures |
