Who's The Daddy? (Spriritual Bastards in the church)....

The Bible declares that there are many teachers, but few fathers... But in this generation of the church, there seems to be an influx of spiritual parents, and even more spiritual bastards. However, what the text is trying to teach us is that every mentor cannot be your Spiritual Father. The word father is most commonly defined as the male parent of an offspring, he is the one who caries the seed. And role of every parent is to assist in the development of the child unto adulthood. In other words, it is the role of a spiritual parent to assist you in your spiritual development and cause a level of maturity to be birthed in you.

Every diamond has a certification which is derived from the process the diamond has gone through. And each diamond refiner has a trademark way of cutting diamonds. Therefore, before purchase a diamond's value can easily be assessed based on the process it has gone through (ie, cut, clarity, color and size).

The point I am trying to illuminate is... what process have you gone through to certify you for Sonship? Conversely, how can every Pastor and Bishop be your Spiritual Father? In this generation, the church has accepted a bastardized ministry structure in which there is no process, no proving and no preparation for effective soul wining.

And there are WAAAAAAAY too many Pastors and leaders in the church calling members of their ministry Sons & Daughters. I have a question.... How can you be my father in the ministry if you never sew seed in the womb of the Spirit to cause me to be birthed? And if you cannot keep your own lights on in your church, how (as a Bishop) can you be a covering/ father to me?

So before you go calling someone your spiritual father, as yourself WHAT INVESTMENT they have made in you.... And WHAT RELATIONSHIP do you have to them so they can effectively invest.

Again I ask..... WHO's the Daddy?
