Why do most Christian preachers teach unbiblical or live un-moral?
Hi and hello Jan Kåre !

Everything is God's grace !
Have never and will never safe to look at myself as a special holy person more than others. But by God's grace , then is it true that you write that I have been saved by faith . Not least when looking at how others have fallen and failed . Why ? I can not give the satisfactory answer , but some key words and thoughts , I can give you Randi and the rest of you who are reading this.
1 ) The fear of the Lord , there will be a pay day or reckoning .
Actually, I have always believed in God , and that there comes a payday or will be accountable for what you have done down here on earth. The Word of God speaks of this several places:
Rooms . 14th 10 But why dost thou judge thy brother ? Or , why do you despise your brother ? we shall all stand before God's court .
For us believers , we are not exempt from this, the word of God speaks of Christ Tribunal for us:
2 Cor . 5 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ , that each one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done , whether good or evil .
On that basis , I have always endeavored to make the most count , which God has nothing to fault on me and my life.
2 Joh. 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought , but that we receive a full reward !
I think as I do not turn aside from the road, but stick to God and Jesus' commandments, still . Will I get full pay , it inspires me and turns something in me to live the most given God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ will!
2 ) I discovered very quickly that the standard for my life to be the word of God , not other people or other believers.
Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path .
Always have and will continue to live for one thing, the word of God , and the Word of God alone!
3 ) The joy in God and over to enjoy walking with the Lord and live as a believer is of utmost importance.
Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy to our Lord , and be sure not , for the joy of the Lord is your strength !
I have now been a believer - a Christian for thirty-three years - so long with so much resistance - especially the name Christian , I had never managed without the joy of the Lord , my strength. And being able to rejoice in the salvation and the salvation of what comprises both past , present and especially future. It has been for me perhaps the biggest reason for my persistence in life and learn through all the years I have walked with the Lord.
Rooms . 8 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
All that we go through as believers - a lot like me or possibly small. And there are those who have also given their lives and become mutilated , all matter is that nothing counted or measured against what lies ahead with an upcoming wedding in heaven. The millennial kingdom of peace with Jesus on the throne of Jerusalem in Israel and an eternity in which God Father may be all in all by his Spirit and we shall reign forever and ever ! The future for us believers so that it can not be better, only we endure to the end and sharing in the final salvation !
4 ) But I do not know anything about myself that can not stand the light , God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ my and everyone's ultimate arbiter or judge of us as believers , we just hold out and sharing in the final salvation .
1 Cor . 4 2 Moreover it is required of stewards that one be found faithful. 3 But with me it has little to say to be judged by you or by any human court ; yes , I judge me not even yourself ; 4 For I know nothing by myself , but am I not hereby justified : but he that judgeth me is the Lord. 5 Therefore judge nothing before the time , until the Lord come , who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts : and then shall all get their praise of God.
I know nothing of myself that can not withstand the light of God, but what is the most important thing for me and all other believers who will be found worthy of the day and want full pay. It's like the apostle Paul writes , " in stewards that one be found faithful ." That is why I speak so strongly against remarriage among the faithful as this violates the commandments of Jesus , the Trinity of three equal Gods are really old Egyptian and Hellenistic mythology etc. How could I have continued . But the most important thing is that I even in everyday life following God's word reprimand and live in Jesus' life and teachings of where I am at all times .
Final comment :
Randi , you asked: "Have a question for you , when most Christian preachers either fall into unbiblical teaching or developing morals, or both, so you are stuck year after year it looks like ? Do you have an explanation or opinion on this? ".
I do not have the full and complete answer. But before I was saved , I was very determined and sacrificed everything to achieve my goals and what I had set my goal , especially in sports and football. After I got saved so was very much of this " transferred " to the new life of Jesus , especially after I was baptized in the Holy Spirit and fire . Here, I think Christian Norway has a lot to learn from me , where I would say that I am a role model for all Christian Norway . I could eg . never accepted by myself to marry a divorced woman. This is directly against Jesus' commandment , and many other examples .
We sing a song , " Sit down for a sacred goal, clearly confess Christ ! Stand in line firm as steel and fight like men Daniels . Dare to be like Daniel , dare to stand alone ! Give he a sacred promise , voted with Jesus go ! ".
Therefore let not the so-called believers in Norway what they think , believe and accept to be a guide for our lives . It can and will end in delusion and disaster . But let God's word - and above all the New Testament be the rule for everything we think , feel and live . That's it for me , let it also be for you, and we will one day get back to what we did for God and the Lord Jesus Christ. Will a living as re- married and still be "Christian" (which one is not ) then it is only to be Pentecostal , where they accept everything in remarriage generally . Will a living as a lesbian or homosexual , but being a believer, then you just have to be Lutheran . State church accepts this and will also get liturgy for this in the long term when 2/3 of the parties bishops in favor of it. Delusion is great here in Norway , it is that we read what the apostle Paul writes to come, and who is now come , also to Norway :
2 Tim . 4 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine , but after their own lusts take themselves teachers in droves, because the itching ears , 4 and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and be turned unto fables ( read acceptance of sin and unbiblical teachings ) .
Let the apostle Paul read words in our hearts , minds and lives : " For we must all appear before judgment seat of Christ , that each one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done , whether good or evil."
The time of reckoning comes for all people, including believers , here are no excused or exempted. We are all included and will have then " school law " for how we spent our lives as believers . For my part I love Jesus , how the show than that? Jesus himself said that:
Joh. AD 14 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them , he it is that loveth me : and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him .
Now I will not expound what it means to have my commandments and keep them what it includes . But it is through our lives and our testimony will prove who we love and serve . I for my part of my house is like unto the end, and I will be terminating word here :
Jos 24:15 But I do not seem to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River , or the gods of the Amorites , in whose land ye dwell ! As for me and my house we will serve the Lord .
