Why do we have many fake Preachers?

1. IGNORANCE: Many people who are called a pastor do not really understand what the word of God really says. These people called themselves a pastor but they do not have a good understanding of the word of God. They do not have a deep understanding of the necessity of holiness in pastoral work. Some were just ordained based on their education, wealth, social status, generosity to the church, and their age in church service. Their internal and external characters were not taken into consideration. Their understanding of the word of God usually based on how they have been taught in their church, not about what the bible really says. These people cannot use spiritual eyes to read and understanding what the bible really says except how they have been taught by their mentor. So if their mentor only teach them about prosperity, sign and wonder without holiness, they will also do the same whenever they, too, become a pastor. Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. 2. AGENDA: Many people who call themselves pastor have some hidden agenda. The agenda of some people is to get riches, fame, honour etc. That is why they teach people what they want to hear in order to fulfill their agenda of getting rich. They use the message of prosperity to lure people into their church, and their evangelism was just to increase the number of tithe payers. No wonder some pastor keep billions of naira in their personal account while some have different kinds of cars, houses, etc. They give themselves title of respect, their wives were made as women leader without looking at her godliness, and their children are in the abroad. They go out to tell people to come to their church under the guise of winning soul, but their aim and agenda was to increase the number of people that will be paying tithes, offerings, donation etc. They invite worldly musicians, comedians, actors etc into their church in order to entertain their members so that they will keep coming to the church. They associate themselves with politicians, rich business man, rich worldly musicians etc without showing them the way of salvation. They even go to their house to pray without the message of repentance. How do we expect them to emphasize on holy living since their agenda is to get riches, fame, honour etc. Philippians 3:19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. 3. BACKSLIDING: Some pastors were once a good pastor, but they have now backslid. Truly some church members might not notice this. They might just be overlooking all the mistakes those backsliding pastors are making without taking time to warn and to pray for their restoration. Those backsliding pastors are now doing what they once preach against. They are now the friend ungodly politicians, businessmen without telling them about repentance. They are now afraid to tell those in government to do well for the nation. They are no longer interested in taking care of widows, fatherless, and those poor pastors that are under them. Truly they preach against fake pastors, but when those fake pastors invite them to come and preach in his church. They will go there and preach in accordance with the doctrine of that church without telling them about holiness. Some people might not notice their backsliding because of their popularity. They believe that whatever their pastors do is right and biblical. Instead of admonishing and praying to God to restore him back, they follow any where he directs them to whether godly or ungodly. 2. Isaiah 9:16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed. 17 Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for everyone is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
