Question Received > How do you addresses a released or retired pastor ?


QUESTION RECEIVED:
If a pastor relinquished or steps down from his post in his own will, is he still considered as a pastor or called a pastor?  (ASIA MALE 18-34)


MY ANSWER:
Romans 11:29
New King James Version (NKJV)
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.

The call to preach is from the Lord.
People can serve as evangelists and not necessarily a pastor who is the shepherd of the flock.
A church calls a man to pastor.
Why would we disrespect a man once called by God and a church.
Sometimes for bad reasons pastors have to be let go or relinquished.
Why would we be ungracious to a person God has called.
Show respect to God called ministers.
