Pastor Chuck Smith - THE WATCHMEN - Ezekiel 3 - June oh June 14, 1992

In this lesson, Pastor Chuck Smith highlights that each of us has a unique ministry within the body of Christ and the importance of being called and divinely empowered to serve in Christ. Pastors must be called; without this calling, efforts can become frustrating and distressing. Pastor Chuck stresses that pastors have the crucial responsibility of delivering God's Word to the people regardless of their response, as seen in Ezekiel's mission to warn the Israelites of their impending judgment. Pastor Chuck reminds the congregation of the balance between compassion and truth in ministry, urging us to approach others with understanding. Furthermore, Pastor Chuck talks about the emotional weight of ministry, stating that true ministry arises from compassion, which stems from understanding the struggles of others. Pastor Chuck shares personal anecdotes that demonstrate the need for empathy in pastoral care, for example, encouraging both husbands and wives to understand each other's pressures. Pastor Chuck warns of the accountability that comes with teaching and the necessity to impart the whole counsel of God, including difficult topics, without fear of rejection. Ending on a reflective note, Pastor Chuck calls us to prioritize their relationship with God above all else, as this will ultimately be what truly matters at the end of life. Pastor Chuck concludes with a blessing, reinforcing the idea of living a life that counts for eternity.
