Is it true that there is no such word as PASTOR in the greek bible?

"Pastor" is a Latin word, so it would indeed be surprising to find it in a greek Bible.The word "pastor" means "shepherd" in Latin. The Greek words poimēn and poimaino (found in the bible 29 times) were translated as "pastor" in the Vulgate, and as "shepherd" in the KJV. The term is repeatedly applied to Jesus (e.g.: "the Good Shepherd"). In at least five cases, (most notably John 21:16 and Acts 20:17) the word specifically refers to church workers. From verses such as these comes the modern sense of "pastor" as a church leader.


In the Christian faith why should you believe the pastor?

Any pastor worth his salt should have you follow along in his sermons by you reading along with him in your Bible. Anything he says about God must be backed by the Bible. If it is backed up by God in is Word then you should believe what he says. But if he doesn't follow the Bible and does not or cannot back his word by God's Word then maybe it is time to find another place to Worship
