This is exactly the opposite description of<br />
what should be said about a pastor or even a<br />
Christian.<br />
Instead, a person should be able to say, “That<br />
man [woman] is such a wonderful person. He is<br />
so kind, gracious, humble and easy to get along.<br />
He is always reaching out to others, serving<br />
them, taking the back seat (or even giving up<br />
his seat) so <strong>that</strong> others can be cared for; he is<br />
the last one to be served and the first one to<br />
graciously give a kind word of encouragement<br />
and minister to others, even though he may be<br />
suffering himself.”<br />
In Colossians 3:12-13, Paul says, “So, as<br />
those who have been chosen of God, holy and<br />
beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness,<br />
humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with<br />
one another, and forgiving each other, whoever<br />
has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord<br />
forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these<br />
things put on love, which is the perfect bond of<br />
unity” (nasb).<br />
