Ministers are certainly not immune to sin. We tend to think of clergymen as holy, but they are just men like the rest of us. They are subject to all the folly and temptation that the rest of us deal with. The shepherds of Israel had abandoned their callings. They were living in sin and exploiting the flock (Jer 23:1-2, 11). God held them accountable. In fact, leaders incur a stricter judgment (Jam 3:1). There is no shortage of evil shepherds and false prophets today. Turn on your TV and you will see ridiculous scammers blatantly taking advantage of sin ravaged people. Shepherds, be warned. Sheep, beware.
