Regardless, he brings up an excellent point; at what level would you
disobey, if at all?

This is something that I would also genuinely like some of the Pastors
online to respond to.  There does need to be a line about this.  

Let me give some examples to start it out:

The given example of the saint is that they are full of the Holy Ghost
and in good standing in the Church.

* Should a Pastor ever tell someone to quit a job?

* Should a Pastor ever tell someone to do something when it will benefit
the Pastor personally?

* Should a Pastor ever tell someone to not to go to college if the only
reason is that they would have to move?

* Should a Pastor ever tell a saint that their Church is the only one
where you can be saved locally, even if there are Pentecostal Churches
within a half hour drive?

* Should a Pastor ever tell a saint to refuse a promotion if it means
they move, even if the current job they are at is phased out and it
results in financial hardship to the saint's family as well as having a
detrimental affect on the saints career?

These are just a few questions...
