Does this pint sized preacher scare you as much as he does me?

    There are many differing views concerning the authority of a minister/pastor/preacher/elder/bishop/priest/deacon etc...

    And there are plenty of scripture passages that we could go through that we may or may not likely agree on depending on our own denominational traditions. The point here is that whichever one we choose to use, the position of any leader requires a high degree of wisdom, Godly character, education and experience. And hopefully the ability to at least "read" the Bible from which he is pretending to preach.

    I value your opininion but to treat the preaching of the gospel as a "circus act" is dangerous. Too much of that is going on already from people of all ages and many denominations.
