Ask the Pastor, April 26th

Enjoy these questions this week. You can submit your questions for Pastor Blake at FBCedmond.org/askpastor.

1. Can you explain Matthew 7:6? I read in one commentary that you shouldn't waste time on persons who are not open to hearing God's Word. Does that mean we are to just give up on them? That somehow doesn't seem right. Maybe the next time we talk to them, they will be more open. I'd hate to give up on anyone.

2. Biblically, can women be ordained? Can women be pastors just not senior pastors?


3. What is the purpose of ordination? Is it a biblical requirement for a pastor to be ordained?
