Why is Seminary/Cemetary so important?

Would it annoy you to learn that the church your looking at joining pays the pastor a pretty generous salary that really isnt in keeping with what the church can afford.

This particular pastor, Im told by the trustees is really a contractor with the duties of conducting Sunday services & visiting with the sick. He doesnt conduct Sunday School or any bible studies or anything requiring him to spend enormous time at church & he isnt a Seminary trained guy.....so why is the fellas salary so high?

Being a graduate of seminary does not make a pastor that more approved to preach than one who is truly anointed and called!

The disciples were not seminary graduates, yet they were used to build the church!

Some pastors are called, some go to seminary! Neither makes them better of worse.

Have you discussed your concerns with the guy you are complaining about? Maybe there is something about him that the search committee saw and you may see if you talked with him, one-on-one! Good luck...

Yeah, it's reached...

ATTN MODERATORS....please close this thread as it has gotten rather ugly.

Thank you

....the ten page limit. and the mods close mine as soon as they get that far! Do EWF and favor, and let this die before people say things they will never be able to take back!


I agree with you EWF....very ugly. I didn't read the other comments until I posted. I like doing that to keep me from being pisoned by others views! God bless!

I know repeated lies and malice when I see it for years on end. He has been the same way since 2006. No excuse for sinful conduct especially for a church deacon.

I should tell him I don't approve of his salary level? That will play well...LOL.

Now I will tell them I cant afford their budget. BTW, I'm a Hard Shell Baptist so I disagree with the way people give in the first place. No, I just cant see it possibly working.
