The responsibility of a good pastor

Thabiti Anyabwile has another good (and needed) post at Pure Church. "What a Good Pastor Is To Do - Part 1" deals with the pastor's responsibility to protect his flock from false teachers. I confess that in one-on-one conversation I've been guilty of being "too polite" and not calling false teachers what the are for fear of offending those who admire them. The truth is, "I must not shy away from identifying falsehood and calling...people to avoid it", because souls are at stake. You can read Pastor Anyabwile's post here.
