Help, I am a pastor!
Dave in Tenn:
What a great testimony of the work of God. Wonderful to hear.
You are right to be concerned about the tremendous consequences of being a teacher. Some of us are concerned about posting messages on a message board. :D Consider this, though. It was the foolishness of your preaching that God used to draw this other family. Though you rightly don't want them to consider you as 'pastor', and you rightly want to seek a fuller and higher understanding before seeking the Lord's will as to how, when and WHY you should minister, you have with you young fellow-believers. I pray you keep fellowship with them, even if you must constantly humble yourself in that relationship. You might find that in a gut-level, experiential growing in Grace and Wisdom, that they surpass you eventually having less theological baggage to cast off.
Anyway. God bless you on this journey. The Lord will show you how much you must suffer for His Name's sake.

WOW! A Pastor! How cool is that! You are a rarity my friend and so welcome here. ;D
You are right to question going straight back into ministry with this new information. This family who also seem to have eyes to see and ears to hear, I would personally welcome to learn with you and even come together if that is their desire and yours.
But if it were me, I would not wish to be their pastor any longer but just a fellow student! Too much responsibility.
Kat is right, one day at a time. God has a plan and He will make it clear to you as He knows exactly what you are to do and when... ;)
Blessings, Lin

I thank you all for your responses and especially Steve (we seem to be coming from same direction) and all of you who have encouraged me, I really appreciate your encouragement. In one of the posted advise, someone said 'Take it one day at a time' thanks for this simple words and I'm happier because of it.
I have read and re read Ray's teaching over about six months before posting, I am one of those people that don't venerate people unecessarily, but on coming to bibletruths.com, I was reading jaw dropping truths backed up by scripture, I was left defenseless and I knew I either change or live a lie, I changed.
Thank you all, I will continue to study with the family who left with me, and in good time introduce them to bibletruths.com. Once again, thank you all, you made me feel really welcomed.

Amazing and wonderful!
"happenings of seismic proportions" - this just made me smile. I was thinking the same a few days back.
Welcome!
