Professional Church Talkers.

Forum category

Today’s Professional Church Talkers are in their places by means of a long history of cultural accommodation. They are utilized and tolerated because of the following expectations upon them:

1.) They are expected to provide upon a weekly schedule prechewed, partially digested, and regurgitated Spiritual food to pewsitters who are quite often unable, and are too lazy, to Spiritually feed themselves.

2.) They are encouraged to perform psychological control using nonstop Rhetoric Devices upon congregations in order to provide an appearance of Unity, Obedience, Authoritatively Correct Doctrine, and repeated Church attendance.

3.) They are paid to provide motivational talks each Sunday morning for Church Members who cannot motivate themselves to be obedient to God.

4.) They are to be skilled and effective in displaying a Godly Faith for listeners who then vicariously attain that Faith by merely agreeing with it through mental assent.

5.) They are monitored to consistently speak of their own humility and of their own underserved status before God, even as they claim to be authoritative over their listeners while mixing personal opinions, personal feelings, personal expectations, personal desires, and personal speculations with the Pure Word of God.

6.) They are marvelously allowed to speak multitudes of words without materially demonstrating those words before their Congregation, something which Jesus and The Apostles were careful to not be negligent of. Jesus and The Apostles materially demonstrated all they taught, and never substituted words for actions.

7.) They are expected to keep all matters within Church to be “nice,” justifying such a notion by portraying Jesus as always being “nice.”
