Dear BAGBR Churches,  

Zechariah 11: 4 “Pasture the flock doomed to slaughter.”

This is not a desirable and rewarding ministry.  Taking a flock to the pasture and caring for them, knowing they would soon die, is not a calling any of us would want.  And yet, days were coming when God’s judgment would fall.  What should or could Zechariah do?  If they were going to die anyway and there was nothing that could be done to forestall or avoid this, then why not forsake them?…because any effort done to change their future would be to no avail.  Instead the prophet was told to carry them to pastures and feed them, care for them, shepherd them.  In our churches we have many who seemingly are indifferent to spiritual things. And even though they attend services regularly, they seem to bear NO fruit.  If you were to have an honest conversation with them, it would be determined that either they are lost or extremely wayward. So what can you do?  Pasture them.  We are not allowed to kick them out because there is nothing in their behavior that would necessitate church discipline, but neither is their real evidence indicating they are “sheep.”  Jesus warned about pulling up the tares from among the wheat. That process could uproot and cause loss of wheat. (Mt. 13: 29-30)  We must trust God to be the Lord of the harvest, and in the end He will separate the sheep from the goats, the wheat from the tares (Mt. 25: 32).  There are those rare times when “one” will be suddenly converted and begin to bear much fruit.  Feed the flock, pasture the flock, stay with the work and trust God to work out His will in His way among the flock. WE must remain faithful shepherds. Pasture the flock.

In  Christ,
Tommy Middleton

The Baptist Association's Mission

MISSION

The Baptist Association of Greater Baton Rouge has as its present mission (A) to establish new relationships between both the churches and pastors; (B) to strengthen existing relationships of the churches and members through a commitment to a vision for kingdom growth that is larger than the local church. This commitment can be evaluated by the degree to which the local church members will penetrate their community with the Gospel of Jesus Christ through family and community orientation and social involvement that exemplifies the caring and sharing nature of Jesus Christ.
