God wants every believer to connect with a Pastor
Ephesians 4 teaches that Jesus died, went into hell and then was raised from the dead. Then He (Jesus) gave gifts unto men, one of which is a Pastor, not a church. The Pastor is one who will have God’s heart and is called by God to feed the flock with knowledge and understanding of His Word (Jeremiah 3:15). When you become a Christian, you are already a part of the church, but you are to connect to a local body of believers that is led by a Pastor, one who will have God’s heart, and HIS vision for a particular community and geographical area.
